Theyyyyyyy'rrrrrrrre Baaaaack!

The "migration" is in full swing! Lake Magic is waking to our returning "snowbirds." Garry and Judy made camp and headed out to visit with relatives in another state but their motorhome is looking like they never left. "Faces from the past" Jim and Marti returned from OR and look great. The story is that Jim was longing to return to work at Disney so he set an appointment up for an interview and seasonal jobs are few and far between right now so to open up his opportunities he opted to go part time for this year. Gee, the first PT position that popped up just happened to be the Friendship Boats in EPCOT.... do you think he "jumped" on that! He's "going to sea" on the 27th.

Yesterday we stopped off to talk to Jim and Marti and were checking out any "new" vehicles in the park and low and behold there was a red (bug covered) compact car parked in front of Jim and Judy's fifth-wheel. Pat and I wanted to make sure there were no "varmints" near their camper so we headed over to check their site out. We knocked on their camper and Judy bounded out to welcome us and then Jim! We took the opportunity to go to Mass together and do lunch and a "walk-about" in Downtown Disney. Our spontaneous "reacquainting tour" was great fun and just getting back together with some familiar faces was awesome. Jim and Judy told us that Ray and Rose have also returned! We haven't caught up to them just yet, I think the "New Homeowners" are like "newly weds" on their "honeymoon" doing some "me" time getting reacquainted with their new digs. We'll put an end to that in short order!

Revived knowing that Pat and I are no longer ALONE down here we went to bed knowing that this is it, it's going to get busy from here on in.

We both woke up early, still excited knowing the "the doldrums" are ebbing, I checked my email this a.m. and there was a surprise greeting in my inbox. Steve is back!

In addition to all this news, Darlene and Buzz are on the road and hope to arrive ASAP!

In other news, Angela is having a difficult time keeping Bill "in line" since his shoulder replacement surgery. He keeps sneaking out to the garage to "just check things" in the garage he needs for their trip south after the holidays. Bill got a new bike rack (and bikes) just prior to his surgery and he's got to just "LOOK" at them!Angela had to have their son "Little" Bill install a whole house video security system just to keep an eye on Bill in case he's trying to do something physical he shouldn't be doing. (Trouble is Bill's an electrician, he knows how to bypass the system!) What Bill doesn't know is that "Little" Bill inserted an intelligence camera in their dog "Maggie's" collar! Actually, we hear Bill is recovering very well... he's got the red marks on the back of his head (from getting slapped by Angela) to prove it!

So, WELCOME BACK "OLE" FRIENDS! And to those of you in transit, packing or soon to head out, we're eagerly awaiting your return and wish each and everyone of you a safe and enjoyable journey.......

NOW GET DOWN HERE!!!!!!

***JUST IN- - - Pete and Joan are on their way and should be here this Monday! ***
