We left Highlands Hammock State Park early and have spent three days at an "RV resort" so that we could have reliable internet access for a few days. It is the kind of RV Park where there are zillions of activities and opportunities to be entertained: water aerobics, tennis, bocce, bridge, crib, and golf to name a few. Both the American and Canadian flags are flown prominently and French is heard throughout the park.
While out for a walk on Wednesday evening we met up with a woman who encouraged us to stop by the clubhouse to hear a free concert. The Arcadia Community Concert Band entertained a capacity crowd with tunes from the 1950's. I was reminded of the many junior high school band concerts I attended where every once in a while a clarinet would make a squeak. Even so, the audience was appreciative.
We biked into town, had lunch at a restaurant that has been in business forever and found a coffee shop/homemade ice cream shop where we just couldn't resist sharing a decadent desert.
Yesterday I walked by a lake and on the shore spotted a sandhill crane sitting on a nest. When I returned later with a picture taking implement she was still there although it had started to rain so she was curled up and tucked in.
Today we are heading for Hillsborough River State Park where we will spend the next ten days.
