Dissatisfaction everywhere

Another week is almost behind us and time to end our winter-long vacation is coming to a close. Tonight, there are 68 vacant sites in the park! More are leaving every day. Some of our friends have become disheartened with the park administration and are choosing not to return to our park; this action is making us sad as well but we plan to return if the Lord's willing. Rent prices are increasing, electric costs are rising, and of course the price of fuel in RVs is also escallating much too quickly. The snowbirds do a lot to boost the economy in Florida and it's our feeling that these people should quit trying to gouge us by charging more and more. Four of our closest friends are moving to another park about 3 miles away; that's close but it won't be the same with them gone. There are a total of 16 more campers who say they are not returning. We probably won't know the truth of it until we return next January though.

The location of our park is so perfect for shopping, etc., so we don't plan on leaving next year. Then we will have to see what the next year(s) hold.
Ohio friends are leaving tomorrow morning; all of us will be up to wave them off. They are both in their upper 80's; pray they make it home safely and are able to return next year. God bless all His children!
