Awake: 7:34am Temp 61 sleep 6+24 rain...off & on all day overnight @ E.C. FL.
Kathy irons clothes while I call prospective campgrounds in southeast Florida; the 1st (5) were either not suitable or too highly priced. On the 6th call, Tammy expressed her apprehension in regards to finding a vacant site for our rig this time of yr. We talked for quite awhile about the area she's in & how sparse the campgrounds are for someone staying only for a week, but she said she'd check the computer. "Boy are you lucky!" she tells me. "I found someone who just delayed their reservation to arrive a week later so if you want it, it's yours." I waste no time in signing up.
K & I spend an hr working out @ the clubhouse gym. Then Kathy walks the town, stopping @ the post office & a few small stores incl. a thrift store.
Gary J. calls while motoring thru South Carolina; he predicts he'll be in Everglade City by Wednesday.
I leave a phone message for both Denise & Mike inviting them for dinner tonight....but no reply. Later we think they might have unexpected company.
Dinner: Italian sausage with sautéed onions, peppers, mushroom, & fresh tomatoes & a mixed salad.
Heavy rain & moderate winds keep us indoors before & after dinner.
We watch ABC news, Jeopardy & the O'Reilly Factor before finishing the movie: "Saboteur" with Robert Cummings, Priscilla Lane, Norman Lloyd, Otto Kruger, Alan Baxter, etc. Extremely offbeat war-worker who's falsely accused of sabotage & forced to take it on the lam. Full of quirky touches, unusual supporting characters & some outstanding set pieces, including famous Statue of Liberty finale. 1942. Another good Hitchcock story....make a note of it.
Lights out: 11:47pm
