Pooh and the Honda ready for their first night out together ... so cute !

Our first campground was near Orlando.  We parked between two couples who are entertainers.  On one side was Larry Clayton and his wife, who gifted us with a lovely CD of him playing and singing great old Southern Gospel songs.  On the other side was Sally Langwah and her husband. 

These two couples are fully booked providing entertainment to 55+ year old venues in the area where we live in Florida.  Sometimes they perform together, and sometimes each couple performs separately.  We're going to try and catch their acts when we get back.  We definitely fall into that audience category, doncha know.

When not chatting with our neighbors about music, history, and the general state of affairs today, we spent time admiring the local wild life.  This lovely creature was walking right outside our door.

On day two, we drove all the way to Jacksonville, a robust trip of 197 miles.  No sense in taxing ourselves.  We spent three nights going to South Carolina, smelling the roses when we can, avoiding the rain when we can, and enjoying the ride. We really didn't have to leave so early, but our neighbor directly across the driveway from our condo was moving on Saturday and we didn't want our own loading preparations to compete with their big moving van.

We spent our second night between the end of the Jacksonville Airport runway and a big flea market. 

Very interesting.  The price was right, though, and the noise wasn't nearly as bad as we had feared.  The rain showers during the night covered up the sounds of the airplanes.  It was okay for one night, but we're putting it way down on the list of favorite campgrounds.


Next stop . . . South Carolina.
