However, Jan and Feb turned out to be beautiful weather interspersed with a few cool and/or windy days that gave us a break from kayaking and fishing! We kayaked to some new Keys and revisited some we had visited on previous trips. We, also worked on a new activity we have become involved in geocaching and are looking forward to that treasure hunting fun with our granddaughters.
This year we will visit our granddaughters and their handlers in RI before heading west to see Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Canyon as well as many other sites out west. We plan on overwintering in warm weather,probably in SW Arizona at least part of the winter. There is a huge RV gathering there in Jan and we will be there for that.
In Summer of 2012 we plan on doing Alaska in the RV and after that start working our way back to FL and hope to spend winter of 2012-2013 back in the Keys!
About mid-March we will start our northward migration but will do it slowly to mitigate any shock from the cooler weather. We will move to the Upper Keys for about a week to start the acclimation process for colder weather. About a week later we will move to South Fl and the Everglades National Park to help us get our land legs back after being on the keys which are very "fluid"! After that we will return to Melbourne to visit family and do some routine appointments for about 3 weeks. Hopefully we will survive the chilly Apr temps there and toughen up for the next jump north. We will go to Jax to visit our son and my brother and after that go to NC to visit BJ's family and attend a niece's wedding at end of April. We will then move on toward RI and arrive there about end of May for a months stay before heading west!
Stay tuned for more of our story!
