That's The Way, ah ha ah ha, we like it!! More Matlacha Island

   We made our "corporate" decision !! We're gonna stay at Sea Isle Resort on Matlacha Island, FL for another month..We both like "island time", the weather, the people and the convenience of being able to walk to everything. Even though the temperature has dipped down to 58F it's supposed to get back up to 80F in 2 days..Got windy enough yesterday afternoon to make us take the awning  in before we went out for the evening..we usually do that when the wind gets near 20MPH to avoid problems with it in the middle of the night..We had to take it in 1 nite a couple years ago and that's no fun in the wind and rain.. 
   Got to see our friend, Daniel Cook, do his magic on the guitar at Bubba's Bar last night. He really puts on a great show. We took a cab there as it's only 2 miles east of us so we were able to kick back.
   We have a cat, Buddy, that has adopted us..started giving him some food so he's hanging around our rig. He visits every morning and when we open the windows he begs to come in..We slide the screen open and he jumps in and visits until we feed him and then jumps out. Kinda cute..
   Matlacha Island had it's art fair this weekend so the traffic has tripled. Glad we haven't needed to drive anywhere. Even with the cooler weather there's been a lot of walkers..people have been extremely friendly and happy..We keep hearing, over and over, " I visited a few years ago and never left "...HMMM, is there some kind of magic that keeps them here??  We've noticed a lot of out of state license plates on the roads here. Almost everyone is from up north, enjoying the lack of winter..
   I think everyone in the park decided that a cooler day meant stay in and cook...we made a pork roast stew and swapped some of it for homemade chili..won't have to cook for a few days now..a vendor drove in yesterday morning withh some fresh picked strawberries and some of the biggest beefsteak tomatoes I've ever seen..MMMMMM  good..
   Hope everyone is healthy and comfy..REMEMBER..LIVE YOUR DREAMS AS TIME GOES BY QUICKLY....Charlie & Heather
