Our last sunset on the Florida Keys was amazing! The weather was perfect the whole time we were there and I now have a fabulous tan. This morning was overcast with a slight breeze, which was welcome considering we were dry camping and our generator starter wouldn't work, so we had no air conditioning or ability to run fans while there. I'm not complaining -- we had a great time. Everybody left this morning and headed home -- all but 2 of the 14 couples live right in the area and use this rally as a means to get together and visit and have fun. You wouldn't have believed all the food! We had a barbecue on Friday night for Jim's birthday (our gracious host), and it included Florida Keys lobster (two lobster tails per person), more shrimp than anyone could eat, chicken for those who couldn't eat or don't like seafood, clam chowder dressing with cranberry/chicken gravy, and assorted salads. There was chocolate birthday cake to follow. We met some great people and enjoyed the rally.
We are spending tonight in Florida City, Florida, and tomorrow we will be heading to Everglades National Park where we will be dry camping again for two nights. I am so thrilled we took the time to travel down to the Keys and see it. It was beautiful and warm and great time spent with great friends!
