Arrival in the Florida Keys

We've had the dream of getting back to the Florida Keys for the last two years! There were many obstacles along the way. First, getting a campsite in the Keys through Reserve America is next to impossible (last year we were not successful!). Secondly, there was the issue of whether or not, our old motorhome could actually make another long trek down to Florida and back — this concern was evidenced by the breakdown of the fuel pump in Naples.

So when we pulled into Long Key State Park, Greg said "it's a dream come true!" This park is so different from many of the other parks we've stayed at — the campsites are literally on the beach and the conditions are ideal for windsurfing. So, Greg is very happy to have made it here. You can see us surveying our campsite here before pulling in our motorhome and working to get our site all set up.

After dinner, we were able to see a full moon right outside our window shining down on the water and we watched the sun rise as a new day dawned.
