Florida Finally !!!
  We had to get the motorhome serviced in Moultrie, Ga. on Monday, March 15. The axle seal that was leaking had to be ordered and overnight shipped to the repair shop. We were told the part should be there about noon on Tuesday and should take about 45 minutes to install. They usually take lunch from 12-1 so we figured it should be done about 2. We stayed at a local hotel for the night rather than sleep in the motorhome in their parking lot right off the highway.
     The southern way of life then kicked in. We got to the shop about 2 PM and the motorhome was still sitting in the same spot we left it Monday afternoon. I went into the service desk and asked what was going on. The seal arrived about 10 AM Tuesday morning and no one was working on it. We sat in the waiting room for about an hour before they finally took in to the shop. Two hours later the repair ws done and we were headed south about 5: 30 PM.
    We travelled about 1 hour south and we found a campground, Eagle's Roost, in Georgia about 5 miles from the Florida border.   Very nice place. On Wednesday morning we called the campground that we wanted to stay in Avon Park, Florida,but they had no sites available. We called Highland Wheel RV Park in Sebring, one town further south of Avon Park and they had several sites available. We arrived in Sebring, Florida on St.Patty's Day evening to 75 degrees and sunny weather. We were very impressed with the campground, very clean, units are well maintained and the people are extremely friendly. They have a heated pool, which is good because Mother Nature has not been helpful in heating the water lately.
   The car race, 12 hours of Sebring, ran here on Saturday, it started on Saturday morning at 10:30 AM and finished last night at 10:30 PM. I watched the end of the race on TV and then stepped outside and we could heare the fireworks.
   We went to a local winery/farm called Henscratch Farms on Saturday. A neat little farm that  makes their own wine, has fresh veggies to pick and chickens all over the place. Sharon picked Strawberries from these hydroponic grown plants. Easy picking, no bending or kneeling. we had fresh strawberry shortcake for desert Saturday night.

We then went south to a little town called Lake Placid, which is somewhat famous for it's murals on 33 different buildings around town. Each mural has hidden items you are supposed to find in the picture. Some of them actually have sound, like the cattle drive and the train.

 Saturday night at the campground was Karaoke night at the Rec hall. There were some real good entertainers and, of course, the occasional one who couldn't sing at all. One guy did a great Elvis. When he speaks he sounds just like him too. We had a French Canadian singing Irish and Italian songs. He did a good job, but it was just strange hearing it done with a French accent, just like sitting by Bob Moulin and Marc.
