Up at 8:00 and prepare to leave southern Florida, where it won't be 70 until Saturday. A sunny 45 this am , as we load up the auto, have some coffee & go over to get the camper at the storage spot. Joan & I preform this duty. Then back for a nice breakfast of a Joan McMuffin..uuummm, good! Joan has a tennis party & we're heading out, so we say goodbye & off we go on the 41 bypass & then I-75 north to Tampa, Ocala & I-10 west. It was a good time at Joan's place & we saw a lot of her friends & had a great time, despite the weather. Joan has even fixed us sandwiches, but we still manage to stop for a DQ! We roll into our KOA in west Tallahassee, actually Chattahoochee, Fl by 5:00 & set up & get our heater goin'..it's supposed to be 26 here overnight! (In sunny Florida.) I go ride 1 mile & then we go into town..25 miles away to Marianna, FL & have supper at Ruby Tuesday's, as the bar has some TV's so we can watch the Olympics,,at least the Downhill. Food is ok,,a "premium" burger & talapia for KK. We did check on the KOA in Lafayette, La & they have room for us, and a Mardi Gras parade at 6:00, if we can make it. When we get back, I shower and write in my journal, before e-mails & such. Now I need to go to bed to warm it up a little, although our heater is working ok. See ya on Fat Tuesday!
It's much later & I've been frozen waiting for the pics to upload. We really didn't have anything from today so these are the last day before we left Venice (not Italy!) Hope we make it thru without frostbite, lol.

Laissez les bons temps roulez, mes parents! Hope you are making it safely to Lafayette and get to see the parade. It's still windy from the north here but at least it's sunny. Watched the pairs skating this morning on tape - couldn't stay up for it all and was happy that the Chinese pair finally won gold! Dick Button is my hero. . .
See yenz guys soon, 'n'at
