On the road to Leesburg, FL

Leesburg, Fl

 

002

We were up early and finished the last minute things that needed put away.  The truck is packed up and here we are ready to roll out.  We dumped the tanks and were on the road by a little after 9 AM.

003 

We traveled down 80 to US 29 where  got back onto US 27

005 

We had a nice leisurely drive and the road was great. 

008 

We saw lots of orange groves

010 

Hey we have an Arcadia in Illinois too!

 012 

we saw lots of nice size lakes

016

we were so enjoying the drive and enjoying all the beautiful scenery

017 018  020 021 022 023  

and then we hit Sebring!  Ughhh the traffic was back.

026

US 27 went from a relaxing drive to a nightmare.  we had to stop for so many stop lights and we were beginning to think we’d never get to where we were going.  If you ever take US 27 GET OFF before you hit Sebring! 

027

Finally we got through all the traffic lights and our friends were waiting outside of Leesburg to lead us to the church.  We had to take the long way around as we are so big and most roads were not allowed on in town.

028 

they were nice size roads and wasn’t too bad of a drive compared to what we had just come through with all the traffic lights.

 031

ummm isn’t this a dirt road?  Guess that is why i our GPS kept asking me if we were sure we wanted to go on unpaved roads .. lol  We reached our destination .. got the basic setup done as it was so hot.  The dogs were very hot and so ready to get inside and cool down.  Oh i forgot to tell you on our way through all the traffic the AC stopped working!  Ughhh what a miserable ride when the AC isn’t working and it’s in the high 80’s!

 032

We got setup done and it was the after 2 PM so we rode with friends Pete and Linda to go eat.  We went to the Cracker Barrel, the guys had pancakes, eggs and sausage .. they wanted breakfast, Linda and I had the turkey and dressing special and it was wonderful.   We had a great time catching up and then we went back to the ranch.  We are at a Cowboy Church and it’s really neat.  We go the tour and then it was getting late so we said good bye to our friends and needed to finish setting up.  Yes, hubby is happy he has satellite TV and my internet works :))  We were exhausted and i called it an early night and got ready for bed.  I will take pictures tomorrow.  It’s wonderful to be in the peace and quiet and away from all the hustle of a noisy town such as Miami.
