Visiting Dennis and Linda Price

Visiting Dennis and Linda Price 

Monday December 18, 2023

This morning we did our normal morning routine. I left for my 3 mile walk fit right before 9:00. Never leave early enough. Then we did 2 hours of line dance. 

When I returned we had leftovers for lunch. And a tiny bit of MaryJo's lasagna from last night. 

After that we took a golf cart ride, and just hanging out. 

Later Dennis and Linda Price invited us over. 

First time we saw them since they arrived this season. They never made it last season because of Linda's heart valve replacement surgery. She needed the winter to recover without traveling. So great to have them here again,  we had a wonderful visit together. 

She definitely is the reason I started drinking now that I've retired. LOL. She got me into cosmos. Although I drink the equivalent of a shot glass worth of alcohol, Jim says if that much, and then I'm done.

This morning after I did my workout stuff up at the building. Once I got home and had lunch Jim and I took a walk later in the day. Eventually a golf cart ride together.

Some of the cool stuff we saw while walking or on the golf cart. There are so many Cricket golf carts here like ours. Here we saw a green one.

Apparently they just bought a Ninja seven and one wood fire grill just like ours. Probably the box in the back they're going to get rid of on the next garbage run like we do.

Kind of next door neighbors with the Cricket people,  we saw a truck camper with a deck out the back. 

First time we saw this was at the Tampa RV Show last season. Pretty cool setup.

Then on the outskirts of the campground, there's an RV that has a pig. They have a ramp going up into the RV. Can you imagine what it smells like in there. I grabbed a quick picture.

if you zoom in enough you can see the pig was scratching his butt on the ramp. Lol. 

We also saw this cool Santa, that moved his arms and wiggled, as he turned his head back and forth. Kind of creepy. First I thought it was a real person standing there.

 Then as we drove around, I was looking for Lourdes. We saw her walking her two dogs, on her Me-Mover.

 You have to lift your feet like your walking up stairs. Then we went back to her, Beautiful motorhome, 

she's the one I talked about, that is all alone now since her husband died only 6 months into full-time rving. I'm so impressed with her, she's a very strong woman.

Then my favorite thing, Jim helps me with the cooking by using our Ninja outside. First he grilled chicken and then a whole bunch of vegetables. That he won't even eat, lol. They are delish. Then we settled in for the night.

Wednesday December 20, 2023

This morning I went to do 3 miles of walk fit. That's all they do today,  on Wednesdays a few people go over to Amy's, she teaches line dance in her park. She comes here on the other days. She's only like 80, with an amazing memory for all the steps.

 Then we got ready and had a ton of errands to do. First we went to Walmart and got my prescriptions filled. On the way out, we saw this drone they are showing off. As they are deliver packages now. 

Then we went to find an eye doctor and a dentist. They are in the same building next to each other, and they both take our insurance. Jim needs to get new glasses, since he broke his in the Keys weeks ago.
 We can't get in until beginning of February, and the dentist we made an appointment for a cleaning, January 3rd. 

I took this picture as we were leaving.

You can see the Citrus Tower in the background. Ironically it was right next door to this building, that the truck broke down, 2 years ago.

They had a cool Christmas tree in the dentist office. 

Then we went for lunch, we had planned to go to Sonny's BBQ, the commercial that's on TV brought us in. 

What a fantastic meal. We even have leftovers for tomorrow's lunch. It's great to come back from 3 hours of working out and have it all ready to heat up. 

After Sonny's we killed some time walking around Target. We found absolutely nothing we wanted. 

Then next door was where I made my hair appointment.

 Same lady Tina that MaryJo goes to. She calls it a No Frills hair salon. It was 35. Plus the tip. After an awesome haircut, which I will never be able to duplicate again. 

We went to Goodwill, we had a lot of clothes to get rid off, since I went through the closet weeks ago.

 Then we went inside the store and looked around quite a while. I found a few things I wanted mainly just clothes. Jim hung with me for a while, till he pooped out, then went out to the truck and waited till I checked out.

 Then we took off and finally got back home. Decided to take a quick golf cart ride before it got too dark. Stopped and talked to Lynn and Jeanna, and we actually saw the Walmart drone. They explained how they come in and they dropped the package. It's attached with the Rope, you have to unhook it and then they pull it back up. Man did that box drop fast. And there's a weight limit of 5 lb.

Jim said can they drop 1, 6 pack at a time, lol.

 Then we went home for the night. I made us dinner. 

 Found out later in the evening our oldest granddaughter Sarah 

passed her driver's test and is now a licensed driver.
