Beautiful here!

We are in the most beautiful place for the month of March.  The landscaping is gorgeous. Everywhere I look there are stunning flowers and shrubby.  I love to see and hear the soft blowing of palm trees.
I know all of you up north can't wait to see some green grass.  We are now in a 1 bedroom park model in Crystal Lakes Park.  Jon loves it here too as there is so much to do.  The pool is beautiful.
We have been so blessed to be here this winter.
I will be taking some more pictures soon.
