Back at Thousand Palms RV Resort-Inverness, FL

We arrived back at Thousand Palms in Inverness, FL, on October 31st.  It was great to see our friends back here that we had met last winter.  It felt just like coming home to our Florida family.  We had some tire issues again during our trip from Wisconsin, replacing a tire on the fifth wheel that had some excessive wear on the inside and then a nail in our front truck tire, which we also replaced.  Looks like we'll have to budget for 2 tire replacements for each trip between Wisconsin and Florida and vice versa!  Frustrating!!!  We look forward to the rest of our friends arriving within the next 2 months. 

We're workamping again here this year, which is a "piece of cake" compared to our stressful and hard work over the summer in Tilleda, WI.  Dennis had some health issues immediately after we finished up in Tilleda, which confirmed that we really have to start taking it slower and enjoying life, which is now our plan. 

We've booked a cruise for February, sailing out of Tampa for the western Caribbean, with some of Dennis's family.  So we're looking forward to our "vacation."  We're only an hour away from Tampa, so getting to our ship will be easy.  In the meantime, we're enjoying the wonderful Florida sunshine!

Getting Ready to Head Back to Florida

We've wrapped up our final year as managers of Tilleda Falls Campground in Tilleda, WI.  It was great to spend another summer with the new friends that we've met there, but the work is just getting too hard for just the two of us to manage. We'll plan to CAMP at Tilleda Falls CG next summer for a week or two and see our camping friends there.

We're back in Stevens Point now to catch up with our family and friends.  Dennis had some medical issues that required an overnight hospital stay and some new medication, which his doctor is monitoring now in order to get his dosages right.  We're hopeful to be leaving Stevens Point by (or before) the week of Oct. 24th and start our trek back to Inverness, FL, for the winter.  It's getting cold here in Wisconsin so we're really ready to head south.  We've been in touch with some of our friends from Thousand Palms Resort and we can't wait to see them all again.  We'll keep you all posted as we make the trip south.

Summer Finally Almost Over!

I know it's been many months since updating our blog, but we've been working way too hard this summer!  We're back in Tilleda, WI, again this summer, managing the campground here....but this will definitely be our last year doing this.  We're finding out we're missing out on too much.  We miss our family and friends and we plan to do nothing but fun things in Wisconsin next summer.  It was great to see all of the friends we met last summer while in Tilleda, though. 

We'll be here in Tilleda through the end of September and then October 1st we'll leave here and head back to Stevens Point for a couple weeks to catch up with everyone and to celebrate Irene's mom's 80th birthday.  We'll plan to head south back to Florida, leaving about the third week in October.  We'll be returning to Inverness, FL, again for the winter and workamping at Thousand Palms RV Resort again.  Can't wait to see all of the folks there again!  Also looking forward to visting some new places on our trip to Florida....stops in Memphis, TN, and New Orleans, LA. 


I'll try to do a better job of keeping our blog updated along the way...and posting more pics.

Visit from Mom and Phyllis to Inverness, FL

We're having a great time with Mom and her friend, Phyllis, here at Thousand Palms RV Park...here in Inverness, FL.  They came for 3 weeks and I think they're really having a blast here.  They love the people here at the park, who have made them feel right at home.  Wish they could stay longer!! 

They only have a few more days left before they head back to Wisconsin, so we'll make the most of those days!
