John Prince Campground
Thanks to good guides, the move from Pahokee to Lake Worth went like clockwork. We were in and connected by 11:00 a.m. yesterday. We needed to shop as Pahokee was dismal in that department. It took until nearly 3:00-I had forgotten how complicated that can be in an urban setting- particularly an unfamiliar one. Wal-Mart had a good array of "Florida appropriate" shorts and shirts for very little $$. I replaced the "too much information" shorts I had bought in Riverton with some that can go to restaurants.
We are living in space 141 at the corner of Apollo Rd and Allegro Rd. Might be more appropriate to be called "Methusaleh Lane" and "Easy Does It Road" although one does see young people occasionally. There are 265 spaces here. It is beautifully landscaped, on Lake Osborne, gated, and next to Palm Springs Airport. Some folks might object to the noise of a small airport but I love it as I see all kinds of small aircraft, helicopters, and the Met-Life Blimp is tethered right across the fence. The Honda Classic Golf Tournament is in the area this weekend.
The Pet-walk is right across the road which is good because walking Buster on a leash is like playing with one of those paddles with a ball on a rubber band. He gets better day by day though. He tries so hard to please. He is using his injured foot more. That is good. Goody is an old hand but she is not exactly enthusiastic about a leash. We fudge late at night but they seem serious about their leash law here. We were first out this morning and it went pretty well. Luckily we beat the lady from Toronto who walks her cat on a long string. Could have been pretty interesting.
Jason had to work late last night so I Jeeped down to meet them and actually find the Hops Restaurant, dining fashionably late. As Circuit City was open until 10:00 pm, always a risky place for a gadget freak, we peeked and I actually did pretty well, considering. How about a 5 band AM-FM/weather radio/LED flashlight/emergency flasher/siren/weather alert/cell phone charger/that runs for 60 minutes after you crank the dynamo for 2 minutes?
There is activity by the Blimp-off to watch. I have loved blimps since WWII when we lived in New Jersey and saw them often.
