Mark and I have decided to try out the beaches again. It's a good time to do this since it's March and a snowy, cold Minnesota this year. And Mark has a different job that allows him more flexibility and less business travel. So we rented a condo on the beach in Bonita Springs for the month. There has been much demand for me to continue the blog. So I'll do my best to keep you up to speed on our quandary, Beaches or Mountains?
We arrived yesterday after a 2000 mile ride. It was a circuitous route through Chicago for an IBM meeting and a visit with Chris and Bob, then down to Peoria with a visit with Barb, Mark's mom just back from the Peace Corps and Jeanne, Kirk, and Leah. We finally left for Florida on Wed and arrived yesterday, March 1. 650 miles on Wed, and 550 miles on Thursday. Then an easy drive to Naples yesterday.
Our condo is very nice and all the computer stuff is set up and works so Mark's ready to work. He worked off and on during our entire trip so the mobile stuff is very effective for this kind of adventure. It's cool here this weekend but supposed to warm up on Monday. Cool is 50's and 60's, much different from Minnesota.
I'm so glad you had a safe trip. Thanks for keeping us in the loop with your blog. Love SS&J!
ReplyDeleteLove the Naples area - Loads of great beaches to explore! While you are there, try Randy's in Bonita Springs for some great steamers. Also the Turtle Club on Vanderbilt Beach (next to the Ritz Carleton) for dinner and a sunset!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your stay!
Thanks for the comments. SSJ, have a good trip.
ReplyDeleteBeth, We'll try those restaurants. I've never been to Randy's or Turtle Club. But, they're both near us.
