Spring in Thunder Bay has arrived and I always enjoy watching the greens evolve in our yard. We arrived home just in time.
We/ mostly Erik have been busy in the yard and I have been busy in my studio.
Jen brought me her first quilt, we chose the pantograph Forest Floor adding to its outdoorsy cabin look. (It is a gift meant to be used in her friend’s camp…( in Thunder Bay cottages and cabins are referred to as Camps)
Jen’s quilt was trimmed and ready for binding at pick up!
Now a little more about our recent adventure
St Augustine is known for being the oldest City in the US. We both drank from the fountain of youth!
We chose to stay in KOA campgrounds for the most part as it made planning the trip a little easier and also because for the most part you know what to expect.
Our next stop was in Bradenton Florida for a night. This KOA was on a farm and was so interesting to walk and cycle around.
Many of the campgrounds had cabins and covered wagons to rent for those without an RV.
The next morning we were headed to Bonita Springs where we had booked a one week stay at Bonita Terra. We have friends who spend the winter there and it was so nice to visit with them and to check out a 55plus resort.
We had the use of a golf cart!! I loved driving that around though I especially loved being able to walk my 10,000 steps in the morning on the shady sides of the canal roads.
The pool area and club house we are lot of fun!
We spent time exploring Fort Myers and Marco Island as well as Bonita Springs.
This Banyan Tree was amazing! I can picture children having a lot of fun playing around and climbing a tree like this.
I was sad to leave this area of Florida but also excited to experience and see our upcoming destinations.
On our way to our next Campground (Larry and Penny Thompson Memorial Park and Campground in south Miami) we drove through the Florida Everglades.
