Hi everyone! It's been frigid down here as you probably have heard on the news. The farmers are losing everything and they say it hasn't been this cold for this long in 35 years. We're all keeping warm as best we can; the nights I'm toasty in my hat and glove and long johns in my sleeping bag. The mornings are rough, 20s and 30s. My heat pump only blows hot air above 40 degrees so it's useless at night and with no furnace on board, I rely on warm clothes and an electric heater to keep me going. It's been a tough stretch.
The good news is it will be warming up in a couple of days so that's good. We've been huddling for brief cocktail hours in the waning sun just so we can all see one another. I've made some great new friends this year and am having a great time despite the weather. They've asked me to teach a jewelry making class at the campground so I'm putting some effort into that. I'm excited!
Will keep you posted as to what's happening. The seasonal folks are all in and the campground is full. Nice to have everyone back! Stay tuned!
Love,
Terry

Here's Nellie's New Floor and Awning!
Hi everyone. Finally got around to snapping some pictures of the new floor and awning, both of which I love. I'm loving not stepping on the green rug anymore and it's much easier to clean! The awning is great to store my bike under, cut down on the heat and have my bistro table there. It's blue and light tan and it's a really nice fabric, sunbrella brand. Anyway, the improvements have made a big difference in the quality of life on Nellie. She feels upgraded, the ole girl!
Right now we are dealing with cold weather in FLA. It's been 38-42 at night and 55 during the day. We're all bundled up and it's supposed to be this way for 10 days still. UGH! Sure beats snow though. Today we had happy hour at one of my friend's mobile home in the park. We fit 15 people in a lanai; a new record. We were all so happy to be warm! Anyway, I hope you all are faring well and I will check in much more frequently from now on!
Love,
Terry and Nellie!
