NAPLES - WE MADE IT

I am having so much fun!
I was so excited I didn't sleep well our last night at Stephen Foster State Park - we heard rain was in the forecast so I woke Jim up at 3am. I could hear heavy thunder and thought I would rather have him drive without heavy rain.
Guess what - when we left at 4am it started to rain, I didn't want him driving in the dark, now I not only have him driving in the dark, I have him driving in the rain. It just keeps getting better and better.
It was funny when we left the park.
You are locked in, need a code to get out, we finally figured out how to open the padlock that opens the gate, in the rain, Jim drives through and I am outside closing the gate when I see that the camper has caught a branch on a tree, guess what, the TV antennae is still up, he has to go in the camper and crank that down.
We are a pair. We do have a check list but don't look at it.
It is a huge branch and I have to drag it off the road, in the rain.
We leave and have 336 miles ahead of us to get to Naples, we do so, in the rain, in the dark.
What a hoot, we drive for 3 hours in the rain, in the dark with all the trucks, we have to admit the roads here in FL are wonderful, we have 3 lanes at least for the first 3 hours that are in wonderful shape, everyone is whizzing by us, must be because of the good roads.
Our rig is working beautifully, we only had the one incident with the blown out window and it worked out just fine. Of course we don't open that window now because the frame got bent and it's just too hard.
We finally stopped for breakfast at McDonald's when daylight came, in the rain.
Got to Naples around 11:30am, certainly far sooner that we thought, in the rain.
Clouds broke and sun came out when we arrived. So beautiful, 74 degrees, I did remember seeing the Ringling Brothers Museum Sharon told me about. Would like to see it but I have no idea what we will be doing for the next two weeks. Maybe just sitting on my chair reading and walking the dogs.
We took them on a long walk in the afternoon and used the shower facilities.
Lovely is all I can say. Two huge swimming pools and 3 hot tubs. Jim is not interested and the thought of me in a swimsuit kind of makes me sick.
Fatty Patty is just too hard to take.
I have given up eating in between meals and snacks. I don't see any progress yet.
Oh pounds - find someone else to hang out with.
Later!
