More pictures of the Women's RV Forum, as promised!

Today was just another beautiful day in paradise.  It was time for Alice to try out her Shuttlebike.  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.
Alice rides her bike to pump up the pontoons.

Sedona ignores Paco.  He so wants to be friends.

Heading to the springs to try out the Shuttlebike.

A little muscle never hurts.

Pay attention Alice, Pete won't always be around.

Am I cute?
Oh the rudder.

I believe I'm ready.

Checking for Gators.
What a mount!

I believe she's got it!

There she goes.







She even shares as Pete rides off.

This is pretty cool.

And there goes Nan.

Two seconds later Nan is in the springs on her back.  The bike collapsed.


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.

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.

Gloria is filling her plate.


Nan's chowing down and Soos is computing.


Bob's having a chat and Irmi is trying out her delights.

Can't remember what's so funny but Steve, Carol and Sarah like it.

Isn't this pretty?  It was so good too.

Our fire.

Wekiwa Spings State Park

This state park is the home of the women RV forum get together (gtg) in FL.  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.

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!

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.

Boardwalk from parking lot to the springs.
The springs are a constant 74 degrees where it enters.
Soos is checking out the temps.
And there will be no diving for me.

Soos and I in the warm clear springs.  Nice day.
Soos, Steve (striving for Asst Sultan), Irmi and Carol

Sarah and Kathleen
WHAT??  Soos used this container to mix the recipe!!
Nan seemed to like it...

...a lot.  And Gloria gets tickled behind Nan.
Marion, Carol's sister just arrives.  Nan welcomes.

Nan, Sarah, Kathleen

Soos, Carol and Maggie

Bear is in his house.
We've got great things in the works for tomorrow.  Hope I'm here to capture the events.  Stay tuned.
Later...
