On Monday we joined Paul and Carol at the Lake Waldena Resort in the Ocala National Forest just east of Silver Springs. On Tuesday we rode with them to the house for some last minute clean up and then drove their second car up here while they went to the closing.
Trip Log
March 18, 2012
Yesterday we went flying again in Craig's plane and I got much of the stick time as we flew up the coast and then down to the everglades, it's like riding a bicycle, you never forget.
March 17, 2012
Yesterday afternoon I went over to help Craig replace the magneto wires on his hanger mate's Pipe Cub while Alesa stayed home, did yard work and prepared dinner. We then had the neighbor over for dinner and drinks as she was flying home to Ohio today.
March 15, 2012
Monday morning we went metal detecting on the beach at Lowdermilk park and came out with 44¢. (Took a while to figure out how to type the cents sign, beware the Ides of March) Good thing we rode the bikes because there was a traffic jam in the parking lot.
March 11, 2012
Yesterday morning Zack and Cathy plus Bogey and Darcey came from Tampa for the weekend and that afternoon Kate and kids headed back home to Lakeland. This morning Tracey, Annie and Little Pat came down from St. Pete's. This evening they all headed home and we are now watching "The Help".
March 8, 2012
We continue to enjoy the good weather by biking, walking on the beach and swimming in the gulf. Well, I swim in the gulf as Alesa is afraid of unknown sea creatures.
March 6, 2012
Yesterday we made an extra house key for Craig and stopped at the Beall's clearance outlet to check it out before Tuesday Senior day.
March 5, 2012
We all rode the bikes to the beach for a walk. It was quite windy and cool and the water was rough but the crowds were down. Alesa raked leaves again and I helped Craig build a wooden sheet metal rack for work. Alesa helped Janet with a school project and I trimmed trees.
March 3, 2012
This morning was nice with very few clouds so Craig took me up in his airplane.
March 3, 2012
Today we took a longer bike ride, walked on the beach and did some grocery shopping for tonight's dinner. We are pacing our sun exposure to ensure a nice tan with minimum burning. Craig is on-call at work and got a call right before dinner which kept him out until after 11.
