Hello from Naples, Florida! We left the Everglades on Monday morning and drove along Florida Highway 41 to Naples. Along the way, we stopped at the Oasis Visitor Center for a view of alligators from their walkway. The walkway made it very easy to spot the reptiles and we saw even more as we continued on our way to Naples.

This week we stayed at the Neapolitan Cove RV resort. This lovely park is filled with beautiful plants and flowers. We have had beautiful weather with only one thunderstorm on Friday.

Lucky for us we found a Pickleball group, complete with their own courts (as opposed to sharing with tennis enthusiasts) and we were warmly welcomed to join in the fun. Roger and I played for at least 2 1/2 hours Tuesday through Saturday. I think we are obsessed with this game.
With at least 30 participants each day, we lined our rackets up for the next vacant court. As soon as a court is vacated, the next four players have the opportunity to test their skills.
Four Pickleball courts with nonstop play, seven days a week. The courts are smaller than tennis courts and the net is lower.
Roger and I are looking forward to our visit with our daughter-in-law and grandchildren on Sunday, in Marco Island (about 30 minutes from Naples). Suzanne is visiting her parents, Jim and Patti, while they vacation in this beautiful area. We are grateful to get to spend some time with all of them. On Monday morning, we head to Punta Gorda, Florida for the week. Thank you for checking in with us.
