Fun with Friends - This time in the Florida Keys

Nothing like a three-day blast with friends to get over the "parting blues." And what good friends! Deb and Lew (she of blogspot Free and Clear) are permanent liveaboard boaters in Boot Key Harbor and Marathon. Guy and Carol Styles (she of blogspot Roving Irish Gypsy) are also boating friends (and now fulltime RVing friends) from Florida. Jan and Don are ex-boating, workmate, and parttime RVing friends from Lauderdale.




We all got together at a really neat little RV Park on Grassy Key overlooking the sparkling waters of Florida Bay, over food, drink, and lots of catching-up conversations.





It's really wonderful to be with such good friends, to share so very many of the good memories in each other's company, and get up-to-date on our continuing travels. Even though we are in close email touch (and share enough photos that our appearances doesn't scare one another) there is nothing like the hugs and the sound of each other's voices and laughter to make you all warm inside.




It was the perfect ending for us to the literal end-of-the-road trip back East. Now it's back to Texas and California for the next act in our lives.

  1. So good to see you and Jan, and maybe we'll meet somewhere down the road... Route 66, or the Hot Air Balloon festival... or maybe even Michigan this next summer for the pig roast.

    Meanwhile, we rock a bit with the breezes in Marathon!
