Life after DC

Left DC with another storm chasing us, wow, we got out of there just in time though it might have been interesting to see how the big city dealt with 18" of snow. We spent a night in South Carolina before making the trek to Cocoa Beach Fl. in search of warmth and sunshine. Fun in the Sun should be changed to Searching for fun in the sun. The weather was a bit warmer, though not "warm" like we were searching for. Spent a few days at Patrick Air Force Base, very windy and rainy but no snow. leaving PAFB we went to Bradenton to spend time with Geno, no, he hasn't changed..still going strong, working and playing hard. We spent a week visiting, catching up with the past and enjoying a little warmer weather. Christmas came and went with no snow, very weird as we are used to those winter Christmas days up north. We left Bradenton, headed for tallahasee and then on to Eglin on our way to San Antonio..it has to be warm there. While at Eglin, cold, we went to Destin Beaches, very white, powdery sand, beautiful, all you need is a lot of $$ to stay there. The Gulf waters are gorgeous. Not a lot of sighseeing, we were off for warmth and sun. After 2 days of travel, through Houston will never be forgotten, so much traffic. Well, here we are in San Antonio, 1st night spent in a parking lot, troubles with lights on the RV so we stayed there and took care of the problem in the morning. Went to Lackland western side of San Antonio and here we are settled for 2 or 3 weeks. very nice, very cold, 37 degrees right now...i think we need to go to South America. We may even see some snow by the end of the week, hope not !! Give us a couple of days to set up and we will be out sightseeing. Oh, this is the coldest it's been in San Antonio for 40 years...know any place that needs cold, we will go. Also, the River of the Riverwalk will be drained while we are here, no Gondola rides for us. Guess we need to stay longer so we will be here when they refill it. it's a canal that they drain so they can clean it..We are so lucky to see this process. Will see the Alamo, museums, the zoo and a bike trail along many missions. I think we have some interesting days in our future. Will check in later when we have experiences to share. Happy New Year to all..........
