Site 4 Gamble Rogers State Park, Flagler Beach, Florida
Temperatures: HI 81, LO 59
This blog is still a few days behind so let me wish you
a very Happy Winter Solstice
now that the world has not come to an end.
Starting today, days will be getting longer.
Hazzah!
Now flash back to Tuesday:
Today is the day I have been hoping for.
The sun is out all day long today for the first day since we arrived. The camp hosts tell me THIS is how the weather usually is here at Gamble Rogers in December. I’m glad I get such a perfect day as my farewell to Gamble Rogers. There really aren’t words to say how beautiful it is so I’ll just let it speak for itself.
Here is a BIG snapshot of our glorious final day.

Tomorrow we’ll be traveling across the state to pick up Carrie at the Tampa Airport on our way to spend two weeks at Oscar Scherer State Park in Osprey, Florida.
