Hello gorgeous! It's a loverly day here in Central Florida. We began our day with "blood work" followed by fruit shakes for breakfast. Mark took our shopping list while I met Dawn at the mall. 

You see, it was ladies lunch day at Wrapsody in downtown Leesburg. Of course Dawn and I found a cute home decor store and bought a couple of things before lunch! Carin, Carol & Maryann spotted us in the store and browsed too! Haha. We started something! 

Wrapsody had a fresh food type menu. I had a Cobb salad and Dawn a Caesar salad. Both were good, but served on plastic take-out containers with a plastic fork! We were not impressed! Also, NO wine. Wha-waaa. It would be a great place for a pop in but not right for our monthly 2 hour lunch event. In any event, it was a nice time and the service was good. 

Mark found some cool gifties for someone's Saturday birthday partay! Mark's the best shopper as he's very observant. 

Here's a good one! 

 

LOL ... ya got ta love our seniors!

My doggies were so happy to see me home from lunch!

 

Haha! You'd think I'd been away for ages! Sweet pups!

Happy hour was on the back patio playing ring toss and eating pepperoni and cheese with our wine. The kids loved it. The weather is absolutely perfect.

That's it for tonight. Are you watching the debate?

Good day y'all. Mark's gone to the forest for some R 'n R ... while I'm off to Walmart for RV supplies. 

It's a bit of a hot one today; back up to the mid-80's. Apparently, it was warm enough for Wayne to take a DUNK! He fell off a large boat and got "dock rash" ... a wet iPhone ... wallet and watch! 😫  (We hope he's quick to recover.) 

Sue went bowling 🎳 this afternoon with Greg & Sue and Cherie & Lee. (Sue did very well after being away for 5 months and tied the score at 131.) Apparently Greg had an excellent game of 182. 

 

While I restocked the RV, Mark vacuumed and mopped the floor. Now, or 80% ready for our next adventure. GRW's Rally in Sarasota, Florida is our next big trip. After that, is Randy and Dawn's elopement in Charleston, South Carolina. Yes, it's an elopement, but they let the cat out of the bag so several family and friends are going up to join them for the nuptials and festivities. 

At 3 o'clock, Mark backed the Grand Junction into the RVport ... first try! Yay. 

 

It's a tight fit, but do-able. 👍🏻

 

Bee is looking for squirrels ... Robs is looking for Ibis. 

Randy and his friend Tim worked on the bathroom tile project today. Dawn was back at work today. It seems it was a busy day all around!

Tomorrow, it's ladies luncheon day and, since Dawn's off work, she's joining in the fun. 

That's it for tonight. I hope you had a good day too!

Oh my! We ALL slept well and didn't get up til 9! Yes, it's a gorgeous sunny start to Sunday at Disney. This is quite the RV campground. Love it. 

 

BeeZee and Robbie are watching for canoes ... kayaks too! Today is big golf cart rides for them!  But right now, the smell of bacon frying is keeping us all hungry and ready for 🍳!

 

Mz 🐝 getting some lovin's

 

Mark cooked bacon, and Randy cooked the eggs. What a feast. The Scotties had egg with their breakfast too!

Mark and the doggies waited while I shopped at the Trading Post. It's very quiet here today with most campers already gone home.  

Randy and Dawn rented 🚲 s and enjoyed riding to the Wilderness Lodge on the trails! 

 

They smelled turkey koobie on the grille!

It was a good afternoon with shrimp on the Barbie for happy hour at 4 o'clock. At 8 o'clock, we left for the Hoop Dee Doo near the marina. That show was very good, lots of fun. Dinner was all you could eat ribs, chicken, salad and fixings! 

 

Happy hour at the RV!

 

Eek! It's a full moon after the Hoop Dee Doo Revue! LOL

 

It was a fun night!!! YeeHaw. Ta Ta til tomorrow!

Drat! It's time to pack up and haul us home. What a great time we've had in this beautiful RV resort. We'll certainly come again ... like when we win the lottery! The RV site wasn't THAT expensive at $90 a night (plus tax) but Disney has you by the proverbial 🏀 s when you're on their property.  $75 a day for the golf cart rental is crazy, but a necessity as the park is huge! So we left at 11 and were home at 12:30 ... an uneventful trip! Yay. 

 

RanDawn packed up their things and rushed off to "doc in the box" for a rash on Randy's back. Now they're off to the drug store for antibiotics. (He's been procrastinating on this for 3 weeks!) Nobody likes to take pills ... but he needs to be in top shape for their upcoming cruise! 

 

Today marks the 16th anniversary of my dad's passing. I think of him and miss him every day! We'll have a toast to Dad at 4 o'clock! 

 

Randy and Dawn got home and discovered they had forgotten their pillows in the RV. So, they popped in about 730 to pick them up and have a glass of wine. We all had a toast to Dad. 😇

 

Now with the chores done ... it's DWTS.

Good morning! Finally yesterday's Blog posted so we can begin anew! It seems we all slept in til 9:30 or so. There was a brief rain shower before the sun came out to dry everything off. Mark and Randy cooked a breakfast of scrambled eggs and bacon. I discovered a tragedy. I had forgotten to pack my diet Sunkist orange! OMG! After breakfast, Mark and I went in the golf cart to the trading post, but alas, no DSO! I must settle with Diet Coke and diet Sprite. Well, that's better than no soda! Randy and Dawn headed to the showers together while I began to write this blog. Our Giant Recreation World friends are meeting at the outpost pavilion for lunch. Although we have just finished cleaning up from breakfast, we will take a ride down there on the golf cart to say hi to everyone. 

What a fantastic campground Fort Wilderness is! It's the first time I've seen a street sweeper go through a campground. LOL. The winding trails are perfect for golf cart adventures, or those with bicycles. 

 

These for photos were taken last night at the Wilderness Lodge.  

 

The Pellegrino water was a crazy story. We were in The Territories bar before dinner. Mark and I ordered Scotch and I wanted sparkling water on the side. Of course, I expected a small glass of soda water. What I got was a giant bottle of Pellegrino. Well, we were all laughing and guessing with the price of that would be! It turned out to be not too bad at eight dollars! 😂 

Now it's noon, RanDawn are back and ready to go for lunch. Away we go! 

 

Lunch was a terrific salad, plus potato salad, hamburgers, hotdogs, condiments and french fries. We were all good and had salads, meat and no carbs! Wow! 

Back at the campsite, Randy and Dawn took a ride on the golf cart to look for bicycle rentals while Mark prepared tonight's pork chops while I played a game of free cell solitaire. 

 

As you can see, Ms. Bee 🐝 has the best seat in the house. Tonight, we will take the doggies on the golf cart Halloween parade. 

 

We handed out candy to some cute costumed kids! It was fun. 

Well, the dogs did not get to go on the golf cart as, it was an adult party only. LOL 

 

We had a fun time! Someone made Apple Pie drinks! They were deliciously boozy. Afterwards, Dawn made a salad while Mark BBQ'd pork chops ... and Randy made tuna steaks. Yum yum. 

We watched, "The Long Long Trailer" ... and had many laughs. 

That's it. We're pooped.

Good morning. We have a beautifully sunny day for our trip to Fort Wilderness! We're ready to load RanDawn's goodies as soon as they arrive. Pullout time is 11 a.m.  

 

Well, we had two trucks pass us on Calla before we could get away. Otherwise, it was a good getaway at 11:30.  We setup then picked up our golf cart ... max was about 15 MPH ... but it seems faster riding backwards! Dawn and Mark were in front ... Randy and I were waving the pirate flag in back. The Jolly Roger flies again! 

 

We had happy hour quite early ... then a golf cart tour about with the dogs. All was well until Robbie jumped out after some squirrels! Fortunately, we were scarcely moving! Mz BeeZee was very quiet and just loved the breeze. 

Tonight, we're off to Whispering Canyon for dinner. 

We drove the golf cart down to the marina where the boat picked us up to go over to Wilderness Lodge.

 

It is beautiful, really magnificent. The pool area is grand! If we win the lottery, we will go stay there. LOL Well, dinner was fun. Actually, it was delicious too. We ordered a huge skillet for all four of us that we shared, family-style. It had chicken, sausage, beef, pork ribs, pulled pork, vegetables and potatoes plus corn on the cob. It also came with a big salad. We ate and we ate and we ate. We were stuffed when we left. LOL  

 

The fireplace is gorgeous!

 

On the boat back to Fort Wilderness, we went by several of Disney's resorts and also saw the light show in the harbor. It was terrific! Herb, speaking of show, I have a video of Randy riding the stick pony through the restaurant.

Giddyup! 

 

One of the totem pillars!

We arrive back at the campground about 1030 and had a nightcap and then called it a day. More pictures tomorrow!
