Amy's Rear View Mirror

Homestead, FL ...
2/5 - 4/5

Michael & Elita invited me to meet them at the Miami/Everglades KOA ... so I did ... for the first time in a long while I got to relax. I didn't really do much of anything for 2 months ... just hung out in the campground with Michael & Elita, making new friends with other RVers there. Each evening people gathered at the rec hall to play games for a few hours - pool, cards, dominoes, bingo, pokeno. Some evenings Michael & Elita came over to watch a movie instead of going to the rec hall. During the day I played several games of pool with Vince, there were games of backgammon, games of shuffleboard, and weekly bowling.

We had several group dinners either at my site or Michael & Elita's ...

... a fish fry, Michael caught the fish in the FL Keys, I fried it the southern way, Gabriel made German Potato Salad, Edith brought cole slaw and I don't remember what else, but plenty of food.

... an Italian Night, Vince made Penne el Forno, Sylvia made an antipasto, I made Tiramisu and Chocolate Cream Pie and I don't remember what else except there was more food this time than at the fish fry. 

... when Vince's daughter came for a visit we had a burger cookout. I introduced everyone to Bubba Burgers. Joe, my American Airline Pilot friend, joined us.

... for Michael & Elita's last night I cooked fried chicken, mashed potatoes and another chocolate cream pie.
