We will make the turn and head for home tomorrow. We called Woody Acres home for 15 days which is probably close to a record long stay for us. But the people just kept being so nice, that we didn't want to be the first to leave.
My original prediction in mid February when Lynne wanted to know when to restart the paper was Sunday April 3. Now that is looking pretty solid, but it is the meteorological pattern that has the ultimate say. We are just along for the fine weather.
Today, by the way, was the perfect specimen of the perfect spring day here in Fulton. Perfect!
We invited Mark and Beth over for wine and cheese to toast the sunset and to thank them for their kindnesses. That was wonderful, and they even brought along dinner, an upside down pizza made with warm-and-serve rolls. Since it also contained low-fat ingredients, it was a double winner.

Weather Ideal
Thursday the weather turned mostly cloudy at Woody Acres. Still, the temperature went up to its normal upper 70s and this evening it should cool to the mid to upper 60s. The humidity is around 70% and the breeze from the Gulf is fairly consistent.
We are now pretty much in zone-out mode, as we wait for the Spring to establish itself in the midwest. The only negative is the bummed knee, which suffered an additional injury as I tried to enter the hot tub yesterday. Compounding the negative, is the fact that the renewed swelling, is a contra-indicator for the ultrasound treatment -- so it's back to the ice et cetera. Couldn't ask for a better environ for rehab, though.
To fill in a few of the RV park details, it should be noted that the restrooms are private, have soap and paper towels, and are fitted with granite counters -- pretty much everything I ever wanted in RV plumbing.

North to Sedona?
Morty's quandary of the day is whether to head North and up to Sedona. The art and atmosphere are alluring, but the temperature reports are too low or variable to be trusted. Some say the lows are in the 40s others say that they are in the teens.
The problem seems to be Flagstaff -- once we make it far enough North to Sedona, the path to the East takes us further North through Flagstaff, where the current temperature is in the 20s -- too cold for snowbirds, even if just passing through.
Temps in the 40s this morning are cool enough. We will stay on I-10 and head towards Benson to the South and East.

Myrtle Beach
Yesterday's trip was canceled due to clement weather. It was just too perfect to leave. Today will be more of the same.
Got up early enough to catch the sunrise.
