A sunrise walk

We determined we needed to get started walking about an hour earlier to beat the heat.  We began our walk aorund 7 am before the sun was up...


and the moon was still out.


The temperature was nicer (around 70 degrees) and the peacefulness and quietness of the morning permeated the campground.





As we headed toward Lake Hancock, we could tell the sun was rising...


...and we arrived at the dock, we were blessed with a beautiful sunrise.



Even as we headed back around finishing our first loop around the campground, the morning mist and colors were beautiful.


The sandhill cranes (or whatever kind of birds they are) were pecking around for food in the field behind the campground.


And the sun seemed to explode into the morning sky!!


Wow!!!  What a beautiful morning!

We walked a second loop around the campground for a little over 5 miles again today.  After breakfast, Chuck started working on polishing the aluminum wheels -- a time-consuming job that he hasn't done since we started full-timing.  It's a difficult job that makes his neck and shoulders hurt but by mid-afternoon, he had all the wheels polished and all the outside windows cleaned.

While Chuck was doing all that hard work, I went shopping for some shorts.  Apparently, Kohls and Beall's think that it's getting ready to snow because the only shorts I could find were a few pairs on the clearance racks.  Give me a break!!!  We're in Florida!  It rarely gets to freezing here!!!  After spending some time going through all the clearance racks, I did find a couple of pair of shorts at the Beall's Outlet Store in Clermont.

After I got back to the camper, I washed all the windows on the inside of the camper.  I think now (with Chuck's hard work) the camper is pretty clean... inside and out!!

The weather was so nice that evening that we enjoyed our leftover turkey burgers for supper outside tonight!
