Dr. says the chemo is working and we are off to Florida

Randy and I have fired up the old Airstream and we are on the road again... this time to the Gulf Coast of Florida; a town called Punta Gorda. We spent the first night in south Georgia in an RV park next to a Waffle House. Having recently joined Weight Watchers, (for the 250th time) I was excited to see that the Waffle House had a "light menu". I asked for the "light ham biscuit". It was made with Canadian Bacon, a good Weight Watcher choice. However... biscuits are never a good choice and this one was slathered with butter and put on the grill...yum! Well, there will be plenty of time to count those points. When I returned, Randy had the trailer ready to roll. I jumped into the cab, a light ham biscuit in each hand, (just in case Randy wanted one) and we were on our way to Florida. We got the thumbs up from an Easy Rider on a Harley when he saw our vintage Airstream with its very cool solar panels... this even got a smile out of Randy. The good feeling didn't last long, however, as the trailer started some gentle (my word) bucking because the vintage trailer brakes were acting up... my handy Randy man pulled off the highway and worked his magic (with just a few disparaging remarks about my baby) and we were rolling again. Just a few more hours and we will be the newest and possibly the youngest campers at the Sun and Shade RV Park. I found this park online... a real bargain at $17.00 dollars a day. It even has a heated pool. (Randy says for that price it is probably a sink hole with 'gators in it.) I think it will be great and if it isn't, more fodder for the Blog.
