Alabama

After leaving Jack and Laura, we moved northwest to Gulf State Park, Gulf Shores, Alabama. Nice park with full hook up. Got a windy site on the lake close to the beaches. Getting some pesky cancer spots removed tomorrow in Pensacola then onward and upward to Red Bay to get our windshield replaced. Wouldn't you know it, the day after we left Red Bay in Feb., John washed the coach and found a stress crack. In view of recent bankruptcies and service depots closing, we are sure glad we have a Tiffin product. Bob Tiffin has already said they will look after the windshield even if we have someone locally do the work. However, our experience is that we get the very best service at the factory so the Allegro Campground will be home again soon.

Florida



We left DisneyWorld and travelled southwest to Fort Myers area to meet up with friends we haven't seen for almost 15 years. Had a really nice time with Ron and Claudia and enjoyed their rv park, Cypress Woods. They took us on a tour of the area as well as to Bahama Breeze for an excellent lunch. While there we went to visit Tony and Jo at Bonita Springs. Everyone is doing great, looks great and are very active. Then we moved our home to St. Augustine, FL where we hooked up with Jack and Laura from Stratford, Ont. Wonder what John and Laura are doing with that penny? Once again, great to get together and look forward to seeing all of these friends in the summer in Canada.

Florida



We enjoyed staying at the Disney World resorts for two weeks with Dione and family. The kids loved the new waterslide at Old Key West and looking over the balcony at the animals at Animal Kingdom Lodge was awesome. Did the Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom theme parks with the kids and really enjoyed their smiles, laughter and looks of wonder. Now the kids have gone home to Canada and the two of us are enjoying Saratoga Springs resort. For full timers, having a bathtub is such a luxury. Enjoy walking over to Downtown Disney to Earl of Sandwich for lunch. Woody and Nancy came over for a visit yesterday and enjoyed EofS as well. Great food. Friday we are back on the rv and headed wherever. Will look at map later this week and decide.
