Two visits today, as we continue our
route south. The weather is still dark and threatening, although a
bit warmer – mid to high 60s. First stop was to our Oneonta friends
Vic and Debbie Silvernail in Clarmont. They have a huge motorhome
where that park in an RV resort every winter. They owned a gas
station down the street from the bank and took care of our cars for
years; and I lent Vic a lot of money! They sold the business a few
years and retired. We chatted about old Oneonta over coffee and
blueberry muffins.
After a not-so-quick stop at McDonald's
drive in for a crappy lunch, our next stop would be a visit to our
friend Bob Zurhellen (our book group will remember the conversation
with Tommy Zurhellen!) Bob has a winter condo in a senior development
in Hobe Sound, off rt 1 just north of Jupiter. He spends the rest of
the year in Charlotte. He took us to a local pub for an excellent
seafood dinner.
We left Bob about 6:00 for another
hour's drive down I-95 to our Quality Inn in Boca Raton. Just as we
left it started to rain. And it rained and rained some more, hard,
all the way down in heavy traffic on the six lane highway! The
weather report did not predict rain today.
Tomorrow we'll visit Biscayne N.P. #49. We'll
stay in Florida City.
I did not take a single picture today!
