Beau wanted to post these photos of the rows of RVs from Sarasota and the Sun n Fun RV park -- just to give you an idea of why he is always drooling about the high-end coaches. Every time he sees them, he says pretty much the same thing: "Think about all the money invested in these!"
By chance, Beau's son Mat was here to take care of some personal matters related to a house he has in nearby Englewood. We all went for the afternoon to Myakka State Park, which Beau says looks like the "forest primeval." There was a cool wooden suspension bridge in the park connected to towers from which you can see for miles. We climbed the tower and crossed over, despite the swinging and creaking of the bridge. Neat.

We also took the boat tour, during which we saw some gators and birdlife. We got to see and hear two alligators challenging one another, rising out of the water and making "whuffing" noises.
But you don't necessarily need a state park for wildlife. Check out the armadillo we saw by the side of the highway, right outside Sun n Fun resort. Beau got pretty close to it and it ignored him.
Isn't he a prehistoric cutie?
We are now ensconced in a mediocre trailer park/RV park in Spring Hill, FL. The thrill will be going to Weeki Wachee to see "mermaids," I guess. The only reason we stopped here was to visit Beau's high school pals -- and so far, we have yet to hear back from them.
Oh well. We will whoop it up at Weeki Wachee to console ourselves.
Tanks, Panky
