Today is my brother Larry's birthday. Although it's going to be a tuff birthday as my dad is having surgery for bladder, kidney and prostate cancer today. Praying all goes well.
We got up this morning and finished getting things ready to roll. We didn’t have much to do, pull the slides in, put the front jacks down and unplug from electric. We stopped at the dump station and emptied the tanks and by 8 AM we were on the road.
It was a cloudy day and we would get rain for a minute or so and then it would stop. We stopped and fueled up with diesel at the Pilot truck stop on the corner of 41/997. With our RV pilot card and paying cash we saved 6 cents a gal.
It wasn’t long after getting fuel we were on 826 heading to Miami and once we got onto 826 here is what the traffic looked like. Yikes Welcome to Miami, FL.
Several airplanes flew over or in front of us. We could see the airport off the ramp.
We only had 65 miles to our new destination. It took us almost 2 hours and that included getting fuel and being stuck in traffic. Once we got past the airport exit the traffic cleared up and the rest of the trip was an easy sail until we turned of 441 to our street we needed. A semi was coming out of a parking lot and had one side of the road blocked and we had to turn when the light turned and had the other side blocked as we couldn’t go where we needed as the semi was blocking our path. Yes we had a traffic jam and lucky for us there was a big church parking lot open so we were able to swing in there and turn around to let the truck get out of way.
We arrived where we needed to be and we had a problem. The gate we needed to go in was locked. A guy showed up and his keys wouldn’t work. We waited for them to find out where the key was. Uh Oh that lock doesn’t belong there no one has a key. My brilliant hubby got out the generator and his neat little cutter tool and cut the chain. We all laughed and hubby said you can’t keep me out and can’t keep me in .. snicker
We got setup and my brother Ronnie called to tell me that my dad made it through surgery. Thank you Jesus. Please pray for a complete healing for my dad. Later in the afternoon we spent time visiting with friends we hadn't seen in awhile and new friends. Several of us decided to go out to dinner at TGIF. We had burgers and fries.

We got home and spent the rest of the evening just chilling out and relaxing. We were both tired from a long day. I was in bed by 9.30 PM.
Happy Summer!!
