Big earthquake and tsunami in Japan. Big flooding in CT and North Jersey. Big snowstorm in Ohio and the midwest. Tornado watches in Arkansas and elsewhere. Political underhandedness in WI..attacks on unions nationwide...collective bargaining hard hit....FL attempts to kill tenure; teacher success tied to student test scores...merit pay...oil prices soar...stock market dives...Charlie Sheen goes crazy and Ghadafi at war....
Meanwhile, Tom and I are enjoying our Florida mid tax season vacation in Florida.
After leaving Orlando we headed out for a fast visit with Wilma and Harry and then continued on to Miami. (We invited them to come down and stay with us, but it didn't work out this time...) We had some very nice weather for the beach and pool and jacuzzi and also really enjoyed driving up to Davie for dancing (and a Justin Moore concert!) at the Round Up.
(Well, we did have one panicky moment of on the highway and running out of gas...but all was ok....in part due to a brave four lane transverse course to the Mobil station!)
We chose a Nook for our electronic reader of choice (Happy birthday to me!) and so far it is working out great for beach reading!
Tomorrow we check out and head back to Orlando...with visions of Linda and Bob dancing in our heads. (Linda is in Lakeland now...) Who knows...we may even hit up one of the Orlando attractions one day before we head home. Another possibility is using the (Bluegreen) Fountain resort facilities as not actually staying there owners....
