Okeechobee KOA seeing old friends!

We are thoroughly enjoying our return to KOA Okeechobee!  The 80 degree sunny weather is fantastic.  Everyday we are at the pool and hot tub.  There is live music there several days a week so it is SO pleasant!

It is so much fun to catch up with Janel and Dennis, Norm and Linda, Sunny and Yun, Mary, Tom, Melba and Bob.  Sharon a hair stylist from Canada styled up Pete and I today.  There were about 10 campers who lined up for her $18 haircuts!  She does a great job too.  She only charged Pete $8 so he got a real bargain!

We have had a campfire and sing along with Norm and Janelle and friends.  Janel plays the ukulele.
The ukulele has gotten so popular that there are ukulele classes now with 20 people turning up.  The local music store has sold out of them twice!  Yoga class and line dancing lessons are great and everything is free!  We ate up at the Super Bowl party here.  Every day is so much fun and so relaxing.  The people here are wonderful and so inclusive.  So glad we came back here!

Evening sing along


Today we had Funnel Cakes at the pool which was made by Janel and Dennis.  It was delicious!
Speaking of delicious, Pete made Tuscan Chicken with sun-dried tomatoes and spinach in his new Instant Pot.  A big hit.  Sunny and Yun had us over for Korean BBQ ribs--a real treat.  So we are dining well here at the KOA!

 Bailey is also happy at the KOA going on 3 walks a day and meeting new dog friends!  She is a "happy camper"!

Pete and I always get a kick our of all the activities going on here at the KOA.  Since it is on a golf course, lots of folks run around on golf carts OR they have these attachments on their bikes to haul their golf clubs around.

We drove to the fishing pier on Lake Okeechobee to see all the birds flying in to roost and the beautiful sunset.  It is a beautiful site and we always enjoy going over there!  We can walk there!
