I tried to figure out a way to archive our other blog entries on this site, but it doesn’t really work the way I want it to, so I’ll just put in a quick re-cap and we’ll move on from there. There are some folks that haven’t gotten into our blog yet and I just wanted to bring them up-to-date.
After 3 days, we moved further east and much further south. We drove for about 8 hours yesterday and are now camped at an RV park in Palm Harbor, FL. The location is just north of Clearwater Beach (which is just north of St. Petersburg). We love it here! The residential part of this little town reminds me a lot of what Key West was like when we lived down there 33 years ago ---- before it went commercial. It’s the “old Florida”.
After arriving in Florida, we set up in our first camp at the Big Lagoon State Park (south of Pensacola and next door to Perdido Key). This was on a picturesque bay (lagoon) loaded with birds and filled with pines and palms --- and lots of aligators. Good thing it was too cold to even think about going swimming...
After 3 days, we went further east to Grayton St. Park (half way between Pensacola and Panama City). We loved this park --- all 2200 acres of it! Because the state parks don’t allow buildings on the beaches, they are completely natural and incredibly pristine!
That was the day we actually celebrated Jeff’s birthday. ..

The bay we were on was great, but the beach (just a short walk from our camp) was just spectacular! We saw the most beautiful sunset there on Nov. 25th!
That was the day we actually celebrated Jeff’s birthday. .. with Jeff & Wendy's special drink call The Honeymoon Special.
After 3 days there, we moved on to St. Andrew’s St. Park (just outside of Panama City). The rain moved in on us here and, but at least it was warm rain and our view of the bay was, again, very lovely. That camp site was the first picture we posted on this new blog site.

We plan to spend some time at Clearwater Beach and Honeymoon Island today and tomorrow. Both are supposed to be incredible beaches. There’s not a cloud in the sky, it’s about 72 degrees, it’s 2:30 in the afternoon and if I can just wake Jeff up --- we’ll be on our way. The boy does need his afternoon naps:)

I'm chekcing again from my other e-mail address to see how this comment thing works. I'm typing in the box on the right hand side of the screen that came up after I clicked on "0 comments" at the bottom of the last blog that we put in. Now I'm going to put in the letters that I see below this box that are security letters ---- it's called "word verification". Then I'm going to put in my g-mail account address and my normal password and see what happens. If you don't have a g-mail account, you will have to create one --- which shouldn't be too difficult. Just write it down so you remember it for future times that you want to make a comment. Hope this works ---- if not I'll let you know.
Well --- it worked for me. I sure hope this works for everybody else. Now you will need to click on "1 comment" at the bottom of the blog (since mine posted) and it should work for you. Hopefully there will be multiple comments before too long:)
It does look like you have to do the "word verification" each time you go in, but hopefully that won't be too much of a bother. It also looks like this time I don't have to enter my g-mail username or password --- it's just letting me in, but maybe that's because I was the last one in. At any rate, I think this is working as it should.
Remember to click on the "Publish your comment" box at the bottom of the page when you are ready to post.
Also --- I don't know what the "open ID" thing is --- so I suggest using the Google/Blogger option.
