LIFE IS SHORT....EAT DESSERT FIRST!! |
Eating dessert first isn't a big deal for me. I think everyone should have the option. However, the real point of this is that life is short, and it is definitely going by at warp speed for many of us as we enter this time of our life. Our status from about November 1 to April 1 is to arrive at Florida Grande Motorcoach Resort in Webster, Florida, for the Winter season and RELAX, which sometimes is difficult with all the fun we have in the months in-between. It's exhausting!

About 7 years ago I began a class at Florida Grande called
"Attitude Adjustment...It's FUN art...not FINE art!". Every month I teach a different class until the middle of April, when just about every one begins leaving our large motorhome community of about 275 acres and over 100 class A motorhomes. As our weather begins to get warmer, a lot of people return to their permanent homes and farms, while many, such as ourselves, head for a part of the USA we want to visit (check off our bucket list). I'll be talking more about that later because this community has actually become a very large and interesting family.

This year has been no exception.
Attitude Adjustment Class, for the first couple of years, was a sit down canvas painting class....and guess what!? We ran out of room to hang our canvasses in our motor coaches! We have many art classes with creative ideas that don't involve painted canvas and we have such fun exploring different art techniques. A very important part of our classes has always been for us to become better acquainted with each other. The people at Florida Grande come from all over the United States as well as Canada and beyond.

Our home in the Winter is in Webster. This year we
participated in the community Christmas card on the
main street leading into Webster. |
We love the flexibility to take opportunities to get away with family - like last Thanksgiving when our family met at Little Lake Weir near Leesburg, FL and spent about a week just "chilling" with our family, which included our 4 grandchildren. One evening we had dinner at Gator Joe's, a very casual lakeside restaurant in Oklawaha, Florida. What made Gator Joe's interesting was it was about 400 feet from the spot where
Ma Barker and her gang resided around 1935. This is an interesting tidbit of old Florida history!
