Pellican Roost R.V. Park

Bayport, FL -  Naval Station - Pelican Roost R.V. Park
February 1st - Saturday - 62 degrees w/ wind

We awoke to a fog that covered the St. John River, we could hear the horns of the ships as they came in, but couldn’t see them.  Krista called me and told me that they finally reached temperatures above freezing and the timing was perfect as they had been without power for four hours.  Had it been last week, our home would have suffered from frozen pipes.

We moved into our site that we will keep for two weeks, it is on the second row, so we don’t have a direct view of the River, but still can see the ships as they come and go.

Yesterday, we had an exciting day, we were able to view something that we have never viewed before.  We saw a submarine come in for the day and then leave later in the day.  This is a rare occurrence and we felt privileged to have witnessed it.

Yesterday we procured a post office box, so Krista can forward mail to us while we are here, so she and I reviewed all of the mail that we have received since we have left home and she will get it sent out to us.  I got to talk to Matthew to day and he has learned to say Chickadee, as they have been visiting his bird feeder.

Today, I caught up on the laundry again, this R.V. park also has a free laundry, with a lovely clean and well kept area for doing laundry.  The sun did come out for a bit this afternoon, and was able to hang some of our things out to dry, but the fog came back in and they didn’t dry well.
