Our time is up for Florida

Tonight is our last scheduled 'reserved night' in Florida and I really don't want to leave.  It has been a good winter! 

A Florida Fish Camp

Florida is the most expensive of the three winter places for a snow bird (Arizona/Calif, the Texas Gulf Coast and Florida).  Spending the winter here with only three month's notice took some planning, luck, some Reserve America fees and cash for all the parks we stayed at.  Some free boondocking, but not much.  I'm not complaining, Florida state parks are great! Worth every penny, every phone call and every reservation fee we had to spend. If you can get your act together 11 months ahead, the state parks are nice. If you have the money for a commercial RV park, there are some outstanding ones. Florida in the winter is worth it.  It has truly been a winter of shorts & flip-flops!

Then the winter ends & it's time to leave.


We do have somewhere to be, near the Pacific ocean, in 101 days.   We do have a number of places marked to check out on the way to Washington state and the South East Vandweller Get-Together is happening next week.  We have not missed that GTG since 2016 and it's not that far out of our way, so we've decided to go. It's good to see friends there.

But I still don't want to leave Florida. I really can't remember the last time I was someplace I didn't want to leave.

Maybe we'll be back next year?
