Going from a stick house to an RV and will be on my way to who knows where. You will read fun, fear, confusion. You will see what I see. I am new to writing. Don't get discouraged by my grammar, my punctuation and my spelling, it's nothing but a "thang." God will be on my journey, I may not mention him all the time, but he is with me. I have the best family & friends in the world.

I'm enjoying my retirement at my new home in Crossville. I'm still trying to sell my MH and for the wonderful lady trying to reach me, I left you a PM on the Women RV forum as to how to reach me.<br />
<br />
Until I decide when I'll resume my travelling I'm going to suspend my blog. I'm into crafting quite a bit. I have a new Cameo vinyl cutter and I'm doing a lot of vinyl and glass etching. That's keeping me quite busy as is getting my place looking pretty. Since I'm in a forested area, you can imagine the amount of leaves around me. But I'm enjoying my time at home.<br />

I'm working three days a week; hours vary, let's see, can you say 5:30 a.m. till 2:30 p.m. or 10:30- some awesome hour. Anyway, you get it. I believe I'll be retiring, again. Yep, Mickey has disappointed me. I have had fun twice since I have been there and the rest of the time, not so much. Bye, bye, Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and the rest. It will probably be in about two weeks.<br />

I'm going to sell my 2010 Coachmen Freelander 2100cb Diesel motorhome. I'll be renting a park model down here next year so as soon as I get back to TN, the Whim will go on the market. Well, if I had a buyer right now with the right $$ I'd get home some way. LOL If you know of anyone wanting to get into the motorhome business, let me know.<br />
<br />
Told you not much has been going on. Friend, Sandra, will be coming down next week. She is now a retired chickie and she wants to visit Mickey. <br />

<br />
I started on Tuesday, Jan 15, 2013 which was a delay of one week because my background check was delayed. Tuesday I reported to Disney University for my first day of training called, "Traditions." It's is basically an orientation to Walt Disney. We also took a tour of Magic Kingdom which included going through the tunnels and appearing on stage through a concealed door. That's about all I am going to be able to tell you about the course and our tour. It was a long day and included a lot of walking.<br />
<br />
I reported to ESPN Wide World of Sports facility on Friday for an Introduction to Sports class which oriented us to all 274 acres of sports fields. We walked all the fields, learned where to pick up our costumes and took computer based training (CBT) on Safety and Hazardous Communication Right to Know rules. Again, another long day and lots of walking.<br />
<br />
Going to costumes was not a good experience but at least I got 3 shirts, 3 shorts, jacket, belt and they are some of the coolest costumes in the system.<br />

Saturday was training on the turnstiles and the various tickets accepted. It was a very busy day. There was softball, baseball, college cheer and dance and Kick It 3V3 soccer. They said it wasn't any busier than when the Atlanta Braves have spring training. That begins in February and lasts through March. Half of the day we were in the classroom and the other half we worked the turnstiles. There are four of us students being trained.<br />
<br />
Sunday we actually worked the turnstiles. Had a first opportunity to be called names by one of our guests. Guess it's bound to happen when dealing with parents running late and not wanting to follow the rules. LOL Anyway, after our 3:00 break, we walked the fields again so we would have a knowledge of where to tell people to go if asked.<br />
<br />
Friday will be my next work day and I'll be trained as an usher. 3 days in a row is tough to get back in the swing of things. My feet ached from being in close toed shoes, remember I haven't had on a pair of close toed shoes since 2009. Yep, getting up early and getting ready takes some getting used to. So far so good.<br />

I had received a couple of emails from them inquiring if I wanted to remain on the wait list. <br />
<br />
I have completed the background check and will be going to Traditions (Disney's indoctrination/orientation) on January 8, 2013. Then I'll get my schedule and my costume for ticketing at the Wide World of Sports venue on Disney property. <br />
<br />
I am extremely excited. Let me explain just a little bit. In my other life, I was in employee development which is a fancy term for the training department of TN Environment and Conservation which housed State Parks in Tennessee. As part of a training program for customer service we used a training program based on Disney's magical moments. That was in the early 90's. Ever since that time I have wanted to work for Disney to find out if what I had trained over 400 employees in was factual. So I'll find out and I really don't think I'll be disappointed but I'll report later. <br />
<br />
I couldn't very well quit work and come to Disney so I put it on my bucket list and now I can mark 'er done!<br />
<br />
Too soon for pictures of my costume but that will come even though it's pretty dull in comparison to some at the different parks.<br />
<br />

Lots of weddings today and 12 is supposed to be a lucky number for a lot of folks.<br />
<br />
I'm loving being back in Citrus Ridge. Margie and I have been busy running around and playing catch up. She is my landlady and I love my (her) lot. It's convenient to everything and it's a great place to watch everyone coming and going.<br />
<br />
I've been spending a lot of time in the pool, walking and riding my bike. Of course, Sedona is really enjoying being back in the bicycle. My knee that was replaced is doing very well. My other one, well, not so well. I'll make it though.<br />
<br />
Tina comes by just about every evening to take Sedona for a walk and then when Sedona hears Liz's voice she goes crazy to get to her. Sedona is happy to be back too.<br />
<br />
A shopping spree turned up another addition to our traveling family. It's a lighted, movable parrot.<br />

Since I redesigned the Whim's interior, I'm much more comfortable. I took the horseshoe dinette out and replaced it with a recliner and kitchen cabinet. <br />
<br />
The Fabulous Five, sans 1, had our first breakfast out. Missed you Hannah, get down here. Tina, Liz, Margie and I went to Perkins and enjoyed our breakfast and conversation very much. And then, Tina's job at Disney got in the way for this breakfast date this month at Celebration, FL. Maybe in January we will all be together.<br />

On the way back from checking out Hillsborough River State Park for the women's rv get together in January, of course, Margie and I had to stop at Parksdale Farms in Plant City, FL. While frozen strawberries are being used for sundae's, they won't be serving strawberry shortcakes until January. The strawberries were still delish...yummy!! <br />

It's a cozy home for me and I love staying home. I have some terrific neighbors and there are many activities.<br />
<br />
Just as a reminder of what the Lodge looked like when she arrived:<br />

My building is my lifesaver. I now have a washer/dryer inside. No hot water but it's all good.<br />
<br />
I soon found out how necessary it is to have the Lodge stabilized. It seems that every time someone walked or rolled over in another room the whole place would shake. Hence:<br />

This cover should provide much need shade and protection for me next summer. That is all I will do for the season. Next year, I'll put in two ceiling fans and a fire pit and I should be good to go for my TN home. Guess I forgot to mention I had 5 tons of gravel delivered before the carport could be put on. So spreading all that gravel did not fare too well for my old body. Ugh.<br />
<br />
For now, I'm in FL at the Thousand Trails cg for a couple of weeks and then I'll move into Citrus Ridge at Margie & Roger's RV lot and be ready for a wonderful winter.<br />

</tbody></table>I am still deciding what chest to put in here. The dinette afforded so much storage for me that I'm looking for something to replace that and add to the counter space so badly needed. I already have my recliner and steps for Sedona to get into bed. She always used the dinette as her step so I had to get something to help her. Margie had originally purchased these for her dogs and they worked so well, I got a set for Sedona.<br />

<br />
But that's not all I've been doing. Next post will be an update about my lot in Crossville. I've been working like crazy on it and it's shaping up nicely.<br />
<br />
My knee is doing well. I purchased a stationary bike from a friend and have been riding it to keep the knee in good shape and flexible. My 37 yo son, Jonathan, had hip replacement surgery so I was in SE GA for about 3 weeks. He is doing fantastic. Youth! My how they heal and bounce back quickly.<br />
<br />
We had a Labor Day celebration at Deer Run and the park was full even though there was a chance of rain from Isaac. It was overcast but not a lot of rain for the holiday. Halloween is just around the corner and the park is booked. It's a fun time here on the Cumberland Plateau.<br />

There were children's games, a cake walk, a golf cart parade and fireworks. It was an awesome celebration but everyone wilted! The weather was just so hot even the water felt like a warm bath.<br />

</tbody></table><a href="http://www.deerrunrvresort.com/">Deer Run RV Resort</a> is known for their events such as Memorial Day, July 4, Halloween and the park gets booked well in advance. It was a fun event and can't wait until next year. What a great b'day celebration!<br />
<br />
On the Red Solo Cup express I had made the lights and Taylor attached them and at night we turned on the battery operated lights. Taylor downloaded (and paid for) Toby Keith's Red Solo Cup song and we played it through the radio on the golf cart. We also played patriotic songs but alas, we didn't win as best decorated. <br />

I am back to my home base in Crossville TN and there has been so much to do that this post will probably be a pictorial, if I can remember where I left off.<br />
<br />
When I returned Linda and Roger, my TN neighbors, had cleaned up my yard of all the old leaves, mowed, opened the Lodge up and had me ready to move in. Roy and Logan brought the Whim up and unloaded that for me.<br />
<br />
I went to Benchmark for my physical therapy for three days a week. Linda cooked my meals and early on I slept a lot. I have recovered quite well and am getting on with fixing up my Lodge to be the way I want it. <br />

If it's too blurry it is a flamingo bending over and it says "I hope your knee feels better soon." I got just a laugh out of it when I opened it. I showed it to Jonathan and he had a puzzled look on his face. Had to explain the symbolism of the flamingo. Thanks Vickie, that was such an appropriate card.<br />
<br />
According to the Doc whom I went to see on the 17th April, I'm doing great. I'm w/out walker and don't even need a cane. Physical Therapy is HORRIBLE! But I'm doing three days a week at the PT center and then doing the same exercises at home. My ROM is 111 and my goal is 120. I got my staples removed which gave some relief. I am having difficulty sleeping, just getting comfortable I guess but it would be nice to have just one uninterrupted night of sleep.<br />
<br />
Best thing is that I can go to TN after May 17. Now all I have to do is get a way but I may be able to drive by then so a lot can happen in a month. Yippee, home sweet home.<br />

The replacement center is terrific and they have their act together. My scheduled surgery time was 7:00 a.m. and just at that right time I was being wheeled away. Prep was easy, I got a little sick to my stomach in getting the IV inserted which was unusual for me. They gave me an epidural block in my left leg so I wouldn't be in such pain when I work from regular anesthesia.<br />
<br />
I stayed three days in the hospital and had therapy the very day of surgery. The staff at the hospital was terrific and the food wasn't bad either.<br />
<br />
I had 36 staples and the incision was 6" long and I think he made it pretty straight so it should heal nicely. I go to the Dr. on Thursday and get those removed so it should be easier to move. My therapists said my ROM is at 107 and we are shooting for 120 so not far to go. And I can practice walking around the house without my walker.<br />
<br />
So I'm doing really doing well but don't have specifics when I'll be back to TN. Jonathan and Taylor are looking after me very well.<br />

Anyway, Tuesday, April 10 I will be going in for left knee total replacement in Brunswick GA. I've had a few problems with my knee for about the last couple of years and now I'm having surgery. When they talked surgery at first I thought they were talking about arthroscopic surgery, not replacement for heaven's sake! I was going back to TN and had an appointment in Knoxville on April 9 but I didn't make it that far.<br />
<br />
<br />
I had to have someone tear down the rig, hook-up the car before I could leave Citrus Ridge to come to Jonathan's. I was going to head back to TN via a friend in N FL and via, Sarah's in Huntsville. Nah, my son had different ideas. Unless I could present him with an acceptable (to him) plan, I would be staying here for surgery & recovery! Talking about role reversal! I'm lucky to have him & I know it. So I'm here in Kinglsand GA and will be here until I can drive the rig back to TN. Doc says a 3 month recovery but I figure I'll stay here for about a month and will return to TN for the remainder of PT. But we will see. I've had may "plans" change so much lately and the phrase "plans in jello" certainly rings true for me.<br />
<br />
Anyway, remember me and my family in your prayers. Pray that I'll be nice to those who are willing to put up with my arze for oh those many weeks. Pray that we don't kill each other. Pray that we still love ea other after this is over. Pray that God guides the Doctors during the surgery & after.<br />
<br />
My 15 yo DGD, Taylor, told me last night that she would take over my coaching as far as PT was concerned and that I couldn't cheat! Huh, wonder what gave her the idea that I would do that????<br />
<br />
There is so much for me to do in TN at the Lodge in Crossville, I keep thinking of those things and just write them down. My neighbor in Crossville, Linda, has already raked leaves and mowed the yard there. She said she didn't want me to come back to something like that.<br />
<br />
<br />
I had a class sponsored by the hospital this week. It answered questions about the surgery, knee replacement center and PT. I know that my pain that I know now will be gone but I also know that I have different pain I will be experiencing after surgery. I dread the PT but I also know that w/out it I won't get on the road quicker and be able to resume my lifestyle that I love.<br />
<br />
I'm so grateful to have wonderful friends and family.<br />

My knee was giving me fits, well actually more than that, it had more or less quit working. I was having a fit trying to get everything torn down and hooked up to get ready to leave.<br />
<br />
TaDa..to the rescue, FL hubby Roger sends MI Roger (not hubby) to my rescue and he and his wife, Betty, help me tear down and hook up my toad and get me on the road.<br />
<br />
Now since I've been at Jonathan's in Kingsland I've had time to think, 'with this many Roger's in my life, is the man of my dreams going to be a Roger??'<br />

Sue has a Cricut machine that cuts different shapes, words, characters, etc. We took double walled tumblers and decorated them. I made one for me, reminding me of FL when I'm in TN; one for each of my sisters, just because and one for my granddaughter. Here they are.<br />

Anyway, here's one update.<br />
<br />

The park has three campgrounds, one for big rigs complete with 50amp, water, sewer connections. If I still had my big rig I wouldn't have been able to get in but because of my size I got in the campground close to the water deep into the park.<br />
<br />
When I pulled into my site #8, a fellow camper came around and asked me where I was from. Told him TN & he said where, told him and I said and what part of TN are you from. Just the way he said it made me think he must be from TN too. He said, "oh you wouldn't know, it's a small town." He said Seymour TN and turned it into about 20 syllables. I said oh yes, I know where that is and we chatted. Of course he couldn't believe I was all by myself and offered help in anything I needed done. I seem to get that a lot.<br />
<br />
Then as Sedona and I were riding around on the bike I stopped & talked to this "single" woman and found out she was from Cleveland TN. It's a small small world. I love riding my bike in FL where it's so flat. I rode 5 miles a couple of days. To some of you that may seem like nothing but to be it's a milestone.<br />
<br />
The park put on a lot of programs for campers. One interpretive program was on the snakes of the area, mostly the diamond back rattler, bird watching and star gazing. At least those were the ones I attended. This particular area had many gators and after a while, you seen one gator, you've seen them all.<br />

</tbody></table>While I was in the area I contacted a fellow womenrv.com forum friend who winters in Sarasota and we got together. She and her husband Bob, aka, tGM (the Great Man), came to the park and we visited for a while and then in a few days I went to their park in Sarasota and they took me around the area and showed me their town. We went to the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens but not before we had lunch at a great little place on the water.<br />

It got down to 32 degrees last night. This morning I don't know what the wind chill factor is but, baby, it's cold outside. I took Sedona out and between the wind blowing and my knee, as soon as she did her business we were back inside. None of that walking for 30 minutes. <br />
<br />
So what does one do when it's so cold outside? Here is my latest project for the Lodge in TN.<br />

</tbody></table>Sue in Citrus Ridge was nice enough to have a lesson yesterday for me and Margie since I was not going to be here for her class next Friday. She uses a Circut machine, cuts vinyl and then we put it on our glass and use acid specifically for glass to etch. Hummmm, could there be a new portable craft in my future? Could be but we'll see.<br />
<br />
Here is a picture of my wine glass. Glass etching is very difficult to photograph but I think you can kind of make it out.<br />

</tbody></table>Sue let me come over and make a little vinyl sign for the back of my car. I used the software, Make the Cut, to type out the words and character and then used her Cricut to cut the vinyl. Then I used transfer paper to lift it from the back of the vinyl paper. Then I cleaned the window and put the letters on and it's straight and it looks so good. Gee, vehicle detailing. Hey I might be on to something here.<br />
<br />
In between all the crafts, Margie and I went to Zephyrhills FL to our blogging & RVing friends, <a href="http://florida-georgiacamping.blogspot.com/">Karen and Al </a>to pick up an ice maker they had for sale. It's portable and will travel well with me and will probably find a home at The Lodge in TN. It is a Magic Chef and makes ice very quickly.<br />

One of the projects I've done while at Citrus Ridge is glass etching. I did a wine glass that says "it's 5 o'clock somewhere" and on the base of the glass is tiny flip flops. Margie also did the glass etching and her wine glass said "Happy Hour" and on the other side is large flip flops. We did a great job and can't wait to do more. Stay tuned for a lantern we are going to complete this week.<br />

</tbody></table>My nephew, Roy, came for a visit this week and we have been busy. He didn't come to stay with me, he came with his cousin, Mike. They were here for a heavy equipment auction. I went over the first day and drove around with them to check out the equipment Mike wanted to bid on. It was an interesting place to visit and to find out how it all works.<br />
<br />
In the evening we went to <a href="http://www.bostonlobsterfeast.com/RestaurantIndex.cfm">Boston Lobster Feast</a> which we will never go to, it was not good and I would never recommend it. It's over on Hwy 192 in Kissimmee, FL. Then we hit Old Town and did a little karaoke, well, Roy and Brian did the singing and Mike and I were there for support.<br />

</tbody></table>Once again, Lagonda, gives me a call on Thursday morning and wants to know if I want to go to Hollywood Studios. I told her that Roy was with me and she said to bring him along. So off we go to Animal Kingdom first and then Hollywood Studios. No pictures here as they were taken with Roy's iPhone and I don't have the pix yet. We had our pix made with some of the characters, rode some of the rides and saw some of the shows. It was a terrific day.<br />

I know I was busy but what did I do? Let's see, Margie and I went to Clearwater Beach and even though the water was cold it was such a beautiful day. I went into the water anyway.<br />

I often hear from people who don't post on my blog but send me emails and this one I'll share. It's from my gf, Linda and TN hubby, Roger who are my neighbors in Deer Run RV Resort in Crossville.<br />
<br />
"Hey Girl,<br />
<br />
Roger and I have now caught up reading your blog and we have a few suggestions. First of all, it would be greatly appreciated if you would stop posting pics with people in shorts while basking in the sunshine (its just rude). We find this very offensive since we are stuck in TN where we haven't seen much sun and we've forgotten how it feels to be warm. Secondly, please stop posting pics of you and all your friends having fun. For goodness sakes, its winter time and everyone should be closed up inside their homes like hermits since that's what are days consist of. And finally, please post something where you look bored, cold and lonely so we know you are missing us as much as we are you!!<br />
<br />
Take care,<br />
Linda & Roger"<br />
<br />
Last year I wanted to go to Ikea and see what it was all about so I headed out to find out. OMG, I love that store. It's huge and there are so many unique things in there. I'm sure glad that I don't have a house, otherwise I'd be in trouble. The only thing I bought were some marked down LED battery operated lights for $1.00. I got them for my bicycle and gave Margie a couple of sets for her golf cart. Can't wait to decorate my golf cart in TN when & if I get one. The little lights do a great job on my bicycle, I put them around the basket that Sedona rides in.<br />

I went to the Noodle lunch at the Orlando Ale House. The Noodlers are peeps from Citrus Ridge and at 3:00 ea day go to the pool and noodle around. Here are a few of the group. <br />

I looked at the switch for the hot water heater and it was flipped to the on position. I went ahead and took a shower. Burr. Then I went outside to do a little checking on my hot water heater. I opened up the door and I couldn't figure anything out so I can back in and flipped the switch and went back out and flames were shooting out of the the tube and I promptly ran back in and turned off the hot water heater. I told FL hubby about it and he will come over in the morning to see what might be wrong. Of course it might be that I'll go back to the service people if Roger and Mel can't figure it out. It was very scary.<br />
<br />
Margie, Roger and I had a wonderful steak dinner, cooked by Roger to perfection. Now I'm stuffed and ready for bed.<br />

The Women's gtg at the state park was wonderful. Can't wait to go to another one but I sure hope the squirrels aren't as hungry. The park ranger told us to put bowls of water out to give the squirrels water. I did that but each morning I'd have more little holes in my drinking water hose. By the time the week was over I have a very nice little soaker hose for someone. It sure won't be good for anything else. <br />
<br />
On Saturday I left out and headed to the Tampa RV Show. It was the first really big show I've attended and I was amazed. I had free tickets to get in but the parking for an RV was $10 and $15 to stay over night. Saturday I spent the time going through the vendor/supplier sections and then Sunday I went through some of the RVs and there were a lot of RVs. It was a fun exciting day.<br />
<br />
I bought some replacement cables for my Blue Ox tow bar. I got a sign personalized for my Lodge in TN. I got a new drinking water hose. I also purchased a Zone Pass from Thousand Trails that will allow me to stay in the SE zone of TT for $199 for 30 days staying and then after that I'll pay $3 a night. Everyone I have talked to who bought at the show last year really used theirs and thought it was a good deal. It regularly sells for $499.<br />
<br />
When I returned to Citrus Ridge, I washed the Whim, the Grey Goose and my bike so I'm all cleaned up. Will have to try my hand at waxing in the next couple of days. Margie and I are going to Bartow tomorrow to see a MH one of our forum friends is going to test drive. If Sarah gets it, it will be her first ever MH and we want to be there to celebrate with her.<br />
<br />
Even though I was only gone a week, I've had lots of people stop by and tell me how much they missed me. This is a really good place to winter.<br />
<br />

It was time for Alice to try out her <a href="http://www.shuttlebike.com/">Shuttlebike</a>. The way I understand it is that Alice was looking for an alternative to a kayak/canoe to sport with other RV women on GTGs. This seems to fit the bill but I think assembly will still be a physical challenge for her. The good thing, Alice will get it figured out.<br />

Oh it's okay to laugh. I would have had a better picture or more pictures but I put the camera down to go out and rescue my friend. As it turns out she didn't need rescuing but it was sure an exciting day. When we left the launch area the guy who worked there said it was the most exciting day he had had in a very long time and he was looking forward to going home to share his day with his wife. He even took pictures. There was an Asian couple who pulled their canoe in and stayed around to take pictures of the Shuttlebike and a couple from the UK who were quite curious too. They even played a little with Alice and told her that gators were attracted to the bright yellow color.<br />
<br />
After such a busy day, it was time to chow down. Irmi and Steve fixed a pulled pork dish, Nan made her Liz coleslaw, Carol brought fresh fruit and wonderful pumpkin bread. Good eating and a great fire.<br />

This is the first FL gtg we have had in the last three years that we have not frozen to death. We do not have the luxury of a cabin this year so good thing we have good weather.<br />
<br />
First day, would you believe there was no one around the campfire who had a camera! Yep, no one so you will have to use your imagination as to what we did for all day and night, tee hee!<br />
<br />
Many insisted tonight for me to post pix to my blog so they could see them, so here we go. But the gtg is not over until the weekend, so you may see more posts about the gtg. Also, we have combined this gtg with the Open Road Singles forum so you may see some guys in the pictures.<br />

And to all others whom I will not be awake to send you good wishes.<br />
<br />
It's been a great year. I'm happy to report that I have sold Somewhere, bought the Whim and the Lodge. Spent time with family and friends this year.<br />
<br />
We had a great Christmas with family at the Smoky Mountains Wyndham. It just looks like it's going to be a wonderful 2012. God bless each of you and I look forward to my new home in Crossville and my extended travels to Alaska.<br />
<br />
Happy New Year to everyone.<br />

So early Saturday morning we headed north and arrived early enough that we didn't have to wait in line for very long to taste our wine and eat the Godiva chocolate. Each wine was pared with a compatible chocolate, such as, very dry wine (which I don't like) was pared with dark chocolate, etc.<br />
<br />
It was a good day. There were arts and crafts on the hill too. Excellent day.<br />

That is what I put on the invitation and people got very confused as to where this place was and they didn't want to go outside the park, etc. So when we told them where it was I got the number incorrect on the invite and sent guest on the other side of the lake to 364, thankfully those people are gone for a couple weeks and weren't home. Alas, people began arriving and fun ensued.<br />
<br />
Roger fixed the chili, which was delish. Everybody brought a contribution to chili, their chairs and own drinks so there wasn't much else left. I believe a good time was had by all.<br />
<br />
The Lemon Drop Express made an appearance and the guys seemed to enjoy her. Only thing is I need to get a back up battery sometime for her. The range of travel for her is great as the pond is a perfect place to drive her around. Someone suggested I get a little sled to put behind the boat & put Sedona on it and ride her around. Don't think that would work though. Sounds fun!<br />
<br />
It was nice to see old friends again and to meet new ones. I believe we will have another one in January at Margie & Roger's new place.<br />

It was a great drive down and when I hit downtown Orlando on I 4 I just knew I would run into traffic but it was not to be, everyone must have been shopping. I just breezed through to my exit.<br />
<br />
I got here and Liz came down to give me a hug. She said she wouldn't get in my way just wanted to welcome me and Sedona back. Next Mel came by and helped me get backed in and set up and to welcome me back. Wow, it sure felt good to be back.<br />
<br />
I love my site. It's right on the water and though I won't be here as long as I originally thought, it will be a great place to just chill, have fun and visit friends. I've decided not to pursue working at Disney this year. There has been too much going on and I just want to have fun.<br />

</tbody></table>I'll tell you a little funny on myself...see the nativity scene in color? First day here I looked across the lake and saw all these "people" and thought they were having a meeting. Then I saw a couple of men walking around the gazebo and they left. The other folks were still there and I just thought it's a long meeting. I rode my bicycle over there and guess what??? Yep, not people, it was the nativity scene. OMG, how crazy is that, so much for a meeting. It's okay, you can laugh at me, I did.<br />
<br />
I'm beginning to get used to the <b>Whim</b>. I'm thinking I should probably have gone to 24' instead of 21' but jury is still out. I love driving it and when I came from Jonathan's to Davenport I got like 16.4 mpg so the more I drive the better I get and yes, that's towing.<br />
<br />
I hear it's snowing in Crossville TN so yes, I'm glad I'm here even though its windy and getting a little cooler. No complaints here.<br />
<br />
I found a dermatologist locally that I can get in to see on Thursday. I sure hope I can finally get some relief from this itchy rash but most importantly what it is and why it has lasted since middle of September.<br />

Donna (Squawmama) I now stay at my son's house in his driveway, however 1st year out I stayed at A Big Wheel Park in St Mary's and was very pleased. Liked the location and the owners were very good. Across the street from Crooked River State Park.<br />
