Yesterday, Friday we left Charleston, South Carolina and drove all day to get to the Fort Myers area and to meet our friends the Harris's. We made pretty good time and arrived at the Up River Campground on the Coloosahatchee River. Nice place with all the amenities on the river although a little on the expensive side for short term staying. We met the Harris's for a pancake breakfast at the Clubhouse here bright and early and then the RV Show at Lee County Convention Center. Good show and fun. Even some good dixieland entertainment.

Later we heard from the kids and about all the snow they were getting. It would seem we left at the right time. Hope your all doing well in that deep snow and cold....we are thinking about you.

Saturday evening we stopped in very briefly to say hi to the Gierharts who have a place down here thats quite nice with access to the river and close to town. They stay the winter down here and enjoy it very much.

Tomorrow we go to our spot in the keys..it will be nice to settle into one spot and clean the coach and relax
