Leaving Wauchula, FL Jan. 3, 2018

  We did manage to have breakfast at the Pioneer Restaurant, there was 10 of us (Brian & Phyllis, Mac & Peggy, Cheryl & Lloyd, Deb & Arb, Len and myself).  It was a fun morning and a great way to start the New Year.  Didn't make the New Year's Eve party that the park put on.  They had it outside and we are dealing with cooler temps so didn't sound like much fun.  I don't like the cold and Len likes his bed at 9 o'clock, so do I.

Cheryl and Lloyd had everyone over for dinner for the New Year, it was cold and windy so we ate inside.  Enjoyed the pork and sauerkraut along with the other things that people brought. Same crowd that shared breakfast at the Pioneer. We celebrated Lloyd's birthday too.

We rode to Arcadia with Brian and Phyllis to check out the meat and produce market that Mac had told us about.  Talk about some bargains.  The freezer is full and the steaks look delicious.  Rib eye and NY strip both, along with some pork chops, regular and smoked, plus hamburger.  With their prices it made you wish your freezer was bigger.

Our last night here we joined Brian and Phyllis for supper.  Brian had heard from some gals when he was at the Ford garage that the best place to eat in Wauchula was at the bowling alley.  Hey, we have gotten some good meals at bowling alleys so why not give it a try.  We went to Bowl-of-Fun here in Wauchula, glad we did.  Just wish we had found the place earlier.  The burgers were great along with the fries and onion rings.  Larry and his dad Larry own/run the place and we enjoyed  talking with them, small town friendly people.  Will look them up when in the area again.

We are headed for the Thousand Trails park near Orlando today, it's a big park, it's nice but not one of our favorites but sure we will enjoy our stay.  Betty and Dale are already there and Betty is planning our supper for tonight.  It's nice to have such great friends on the road.  Once again I see many happy hours  while we are there.
