Last Days in Navarre

Santa Rosa RV Resort from their pier. That's their Club House, bath house etc. in back of the pool. 
Our RV "Baby" is the first one to it's right - Site #1

And here's a close up of Baby and our beach. 

This month has gone by so fast and we got underway again on Sunday But far, only 29 miles to Fort Pickens. This was the largest of four forts built to defend Pensacola Bay and its navy yard. Completed in 1834 it was one of four Southern forts to remain in Union hands during the Civil War. It remained in use until 1947 and is now part of the National Seashore. The campground is run by the National Park Service. We'll will stay there 2 nights and then move to Big Lagoon Florida State Park, 10 miles southwest of Pensacola. This is a wonderful wildlife area and an entrance to the Great Florida Birding Trail. 

We head east from there, stopping one night at the Waghu Ranch, a Harvest Host location and then on to Lake City RV Resort where we will leave Baby for 11 nights while we drive around Florida visiting friends and family. I'll cover that in future entries. But now I'll finish up with photos of the fun activities here at the Santa Rosa. We've made a lot of friends here and look forward to coming back next year for at least 2 months. We've reserved January and February again.

Scott shows off his painted napkin

Faith, Marcy and Heather with their tiny "beers",
actually liquor and cream.

The overed patio for the Super Bowl - we had
TVs outside and in.

Karie decorates the Club House for every event and holiday - here the Super Bowl. That's Chris and
Lisa front and center. 

Heather and Scott at the Mardi Gras party

Scott acting up at the "Murder at the Grill"
he played Dan Dragnet - an actor studying
up for a part as a detective.

Part of the audience for our the Mystery performance.



And here are the actors (and suspects) That's Karie in the center - she runs the show here and is a 
major reason we love it so much. 

Marcy shows off her painting. Heather taught
a Sip and Paint Class with 21 students - 2
sessions. An afternoon doing the drawing and
base paint and then finishing it off that night.






Scott enjoys oysters at our last dinner out with
our friends here - group photo to come.
