This is it folks. The last leg of our journey.  Again on this day we had beautiful weather and light traffic with an added bonus of some beautiful scenery. We arrived at Jason and Sil's at 3:15. Sil w

This story actually began in chat. A few of us were talking with Jason about his search for a pop up. You know how the discussion goes. Gee, I really would like to have my own pup. Nothing new but in

I just want to say a little something about our group. They are all Fiendtastic. Since day one when Jason decided to buy his PUP (which needs a name by the way :) ) Fiends have been offering assistanc

Let's see, where did we leave off? Oh yes, it's Saturday and we have company coming.Lorna and I made a sort of quick run to Publix and then it was back home to wait for Tim and Sheila and a surprise guest. What do you do when company arrives? You EAT!

 

Unless you're at Lorna's.

I think it is an unwritten law that dinner is always late.  :heart:

But what is this I see? Rich and Lorna are in the kitchen.

It was a great night with great friends. It was hard to say goodbye but I knew we would see them tomorrow.

Now for Sunday. The plan was to go to the Fort and visit Gary and Marilyn, and have lunch.Great plan. Easy plan. Unless you are a Fiend.

We started here.

We decide on Trail's End for lunch after Lorna calls the front desk to find out if they are serving lunch. She was assured that yes lunch is served but not the buffet. Ok that's fine we can order off the menu. 

Wellllllll. No lunch buffet or otherwise but dinner will be served at 4:30. Ok it is 3 o'clock but the girls at the check in tell Wilderness Lodge is serving. New plan.

 

We go down to the bus stop to catch a bus and run into TCD. Sorry no pictures but we did have a nice visit but quick visit with Andrew and one of the twins.

 

Our bus arrives and we are off to the Lodge. Now where to eat. We head to Roaring Forks but Gary wants a cocktail. So we ask a cute little CM standing outside of Whispering Canyon if lunch is being served. "Yes sir, she says." No ma'am it isn't lunch is over and they are doing the set up for dinner. While all this is going on Gary runs to Artist's Point.....no joy there either.

 

New plan. It is almost 4;00 by this time so we decide to take the boat back to the Fort and wait for Trail's End to open for dinner.

Rich had to make a stop so we waited and waited ....uh oh we lost Rich.

Where we meet up with Tim and Sheila and Gary gets his cocktail. Ok, ok we all had a cocktail.

Finally, it is time to eat. Right back where we started from.

If you have never tried the cornbread salad, do it. It was delicious!

 I am going to take a little break here. Typing and riding in a car is not a good mix.

After dinner we went back to Gary and Marilyn's site. Lou and Gail were there waiting for us. Missy stopped by too. Sorry again, no pictures. But honestly those of you who know should be proud that I remembered to take as many as I did.  :rofl2:

 

We sat and visited for a while and then Missy said she had a surprise for us. Seems she has inside information. Are you ready?

TJ had a stop at Fort Wilderness.  :jumpforjoy

He had an empty bus so Mike, Lorna, Rich, Missy and I all jumped on board and took a ride to his next stop.

 We gave him a hard time and misbehaved badly.  >:D

One of us more so than the rest.

We made it back to the Fort, said our goodbyes and headed back to Lorna's house.

I packed up my stuff and before you knew it was bedtime.

 

Thank you so much Lorna and Rich. We had a wonderful time with you guys. It was so hard to leave this morning. p.s. thanks for letting me sleep in. :)
