MacDill AFB * Visitor

March 27th - Saturday - Beautiful sunny Day - High 85 Degrees - low humidity

We were awakened by a phone call from one of our square dancing friends that is currently in Florida and they were wanting to know when we were coming to see them. Told us they were out picking strawberries, and we should be there to get some also. He told us they were the sweetest they had ever picked. So guess you all know where we are going to be on Monday. Then a night of dancing.

We left Scott's around 10:30 this am and had an uneventful drive to MacDill. Note the picture of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. Girls, do you remember the first time we went over the bridge. You both were a little afraid we must fall off!! Lou stopped before we crossed the bridge so we could get a picture of it.

We arrived at MacDill around 1:00 pm, and DH picked out a wonderful site. Close to the Bay, laundry house with Clotheslines!! and to the beach. We have shade trees, a cement pad and I will take a picture and post it soon.

I got the house cleaned up and then we ran to the commisory to get some groceries, and by the time we got home and got them put away, it was almost 9:00 when we had dinner. The day and evening have gone very quickly.

While I was cleaning up the house, I took Estee out to go potty and this little character was outsider of our door. Estee has hurt her leg and refuses to walk on the left hind leg, so I was carrying her, and probably was a good thing, perhaps she and the armadillo might have become more friendly.

Tomorrow morning we have church at 9:00 on the base, then we are going to do laundry and wash the car, so we will have things caught up so we can play on Monday. DH thinks it is going to be hard to leave in two weeks, and I certainly have to agree, it is a wonderful base and just beautiful surroundings and I promise to post more pictures in the days to come.
