Happy Spring!

It has been awhile since I have been able to post to this blog. I left Lake San Marino on March 13th and came to Tampa where I am having some service work done on Bearfoot. It is taken longer than I had expected which is just about always the case. Luckily, Sebastian and I having been staying about 10miles away with some friends rather than staying in the coach in a service bay. What happens here at Lazy Days is when you come for service you are allowed to stay in your coach at night only. That means that you spend the days doing something else. Most people hang out in the large and comfortable service pavillion with its numerous tv's, starbucks coffee bar, wireless internet, sofas and chairs, and clean restrooms. Dogs are welcome there too. We stayed one night in the parking lot. Sebastian's feet and legs turned dark grey from walking on the dirty blacktop all the time. He was a mess and has since had a bath. He does need another haircut though. I guess I will try to find a groomer in my next stop which is St. Augustine, FL. I hope to get out of here tomorrow or at the latest on Wed. My reservations begin Wed. on the beach in St. Augustine. I will meet my friend Ralph there too. Bashey and I are getting itchy to begin rolling again. It was sad leaving Naples and my friends and family but once I was on the road, I was ready to keep going. Everything has an ending and then there are new adventures. The weather is grand here except there hasn't been rain in 6 weeks so it is very dry. The wind is blowing today which means the threat of grass fires goes way up. We have had several bad ones. Where I am staying there are wild peacocks roaming about calling that poignant cry that sounds a bit like a cat or a baby. I haven't spotted them yet but they appear to be quite near. I will post some photos as soon as I can. Right now I am sitting on a bench outside of Lazy Days where I can receive their wireless network. Have a grand spring day, a day of renewal and rebirth. If the weather is bad where you are, go out and buy some tulips or daffodils. I have always done that in the early spring. They provide much cheer.
