It Warmed Up!

As we departed Alabama last week, we ran into a retired Canadian Forces member (from Newfoundland, no less). He asked why we were going to Fountain - what was there to see? Our response was nothing. Just a different part of Florida. Well, what we found in Fountain was warm weather, great people and golf!



This was our home for the week. Now warm, like cold, is a relative thing. While we rejoiced in the warm weather, many native Floridians thought it to be still too cold to golf. As such, we had the course pretty well to ourselves, except for ......





















an armadillo,



















some wild turkeys



and native birds.





















Fortunately, despite this warning sign on Hole #3, the 'gators and snakes also found it way to cold and NO sightings were made.











We were able to enjoy the entire 18 holes, playing the last hole as the sun started its descent over the Gulf horizon.











Saturday it was time to move a little further east. We've parked just north of the small town of Live Oak. Hopefully the warm weather will stick around (and the internet connection will improve (LOL)).
