April 19 - 20 Sunday & Monday

It rained all night again. We woke to a storm, thunder, lightning, wind. In fact our area was also under a tornado watch! We felt like we were back home in Illinois, a tornado watch in Florida!!! We went to church...umbrellas in hand. After church the storm eased up and the tornado watch was lifted, but thunder storms were still predicted. We decided to go out for a late breakfast. We didn't want a chain restaurant so we were looking for a good local family restaurant. We drove to a little town called Milton. We saw a restaurant called Aces and there were several cars in their parking lot, so we figured it must be good. Our instincts were right. It was fairly crowded, which usually means good food. It reminded us of a restaurant back home in Morris called "R Place". We enjoyed a good meal. Richard wanted to watch the NASCAR race in the afternoon. So I decided to do the laundry, what fun, but it has to be done. While I was waiting for the clothes to get done, I sat outside by the pool which is right next to the laundry room. It was still overcast but at least it stopped raining.

Monday morning... No rain!! We did a little supply shopping in the morning. We decided to go golfing in the afternoon. It wasn't warm or sunny enough for the beach. Yesterday while we were looking for a restaurant we saw a golf course in Milton. We had a nice afternoon golfing 9holes.i thought It was a rather hard course, mostly par 4&5's. I like par 3's. Richard liked the course...it challenged him, but he really did good, he golfed a 53. We probably will go back there again before we leave here. It is only about 40 min from the park, but we were talking on the way back and missed our turn, so it took us over 1 1/2 hrs to get back to the park! But we enjoyed the sight-seeing.
