month is flying by. seem to stay busy but dont do too much. i have been bike riding a fair amount. tom has been having trouble with his electric bike not wanting to take a charge so they are sending a new  battery . i am starting a water fitness class here at the park. hopefully, i will get some to participate in the classes. if not oh well., i will be just me.

got together one afternoon with friends fred and sharon in hernando. good to see them. friends gail and scott  from south dakota came to beth and todds one afternoon so we went over and spent the day with them. friends mike and sue from Pine Harbor came one day so had a fun time with them. Mary and bob horton are coming over on saturday. looking forward to seeing them and catching up. Mallory and brad, brett and bode came for 5 days. soo fun having them here and room to spread out. stayed busy. went to the mermaid show in weeki wachi. took a airboat ride, (bode hated it!) went to homosassa to the zoo. and spent time at the wonderful park here in Inverness and then went duck pin bowling. very fun! see we dont do much of anything! 😄.

 Jan. 8 2023

Happy new year. Now been at the house for over a month. getting settled and supporting the local economy by buying new and used items for the house that we can't live without. Ha! have gotten together with our besties over in Bushnell a number of times. Laurie loves the camper so thats a plus!. had everyone over for a christmas celebration and watched the Packers win. fun day! have met a few people here at the park but except for neighbors ray and rita lykins no solid connections yet. New  neighbors next door again. john and diane. only chatted briefly. went over to lauries one night for a sleep over and learned how to \play bunco. fun game. laurie also came here for a couple of  nights this week. kevin and family came for a couple of days over xmas. aprill, girls and I went to Ocala to tour the Equestrian center there. beautiful! brad and family are coming next week for 5 days. looking forward to it! starting to do a bit of landscaping. found a patch of brick under some dirt in back. need to relevel a bit but it will be a good start to see if we use the back much.
