For those who know me, know that I absolutely love meeting people!! This is the one thing that I had most looked forward to when we decided to come to Florida. Sometimes, that is hard to do in a place where everyone has been together for several years (know what I mean?) But, I am very determine and try to find ways to accomplish this. Jon is also very, very good at this, so we both are pretty out going and neither of us usually know a stranger.
Many people in this park drive around in a golf cart as it is 2 miles around the park. We really wanted to rent one for the month, but when we found out the price we decided to pass on it for this year. Jon was extremely disappointed.
When we first arrived here, the neighbors across the street (whom we had not met yet) had a big party with live music. We really enjoyed sitting outside listening and told them so the next morning. They said they hoped it didn't keep us awake which it did not. From that time we talked with them and Jon visited with Kent several times. Well to make a long story short, they were going up to Georgia for a week and asked us if we would like to use their Golf Cart while they were gone. We have really enjoyed it and you can see that Mr. Whiskers also love riding around.
God is good and we certainly felt His blessings from these nice people.
Lori (our daughter) texted me after I told her about our blessing and said "hey Mom, that Banana Nut Bread sure worked didn't it?" It pays to be nice to our neighbors and I get such joy out of it!!!!

How wonderful you got to use the neighbors Golf Cart for a week, that truly was a wonderful blessing. Mr. Whiskers is so adorable, want to give him a big hug. Beautiful and colorful flowers in the background.
Now that you see how enjoyable a cart is you might change your mind and buy one. You are so fortunate to be able to enjoy life so much and to have such a wonderful personality. Juanita
Joan (and Jon)
Only wonderful and friendly people like you can make friends so easily. I am sure you will look forward to owning your own next year. Whiskers certainly has the place of honor with Jon. So glad you are having so much fun. Bette
