Punta Gorda, FL

We arrived at Punta Gorda, FL late yesterday afternoon after a quick stop at Lazy Days outside Tampa. We were totally shocked to be greeted by Jim's brother, Bob, and wife, Donna, who planned for months to be here and never told us. They are 5 sites up from us and will be through April. It's so nice to have family here. They have a cat, General, and dog, Cinnamon, so we can now take walks together with our doggies. They had free drinks, hotdogs, and beans last night for a social gathering at the clubhouse. Later that evening we went back to the clubhouse to watch Dancing with the Stars since we have not hooked up with cable yet and Bob's TV does not pick up ABC.

We also noticed that our patio had red ant mounds all around. The attendant put white powder on top and left a spot in front for us and Lily to walk off. In a few days they will spray it with water. Then I can wash the patio and sweep and put down out outdoor carpet and chairs. We don't need red ant bites! We are diagonally across from the laundry facilities, so handy! The park is about 1/2 full and by January will be in full swing. It's a nice small place and people are very friendly.
