Titusville - Last Day at Titusville and last day of the blog

So you're leaving for two months, what do you do? (Be sure everything; is double tied!)
I picked up the rental car this morning from Hertz since they had the best rates, they beat Enterprise by $600! Their service wasn't as good and they only had one guy in the office - but it's hard to argue with the rates. We'll keep the car over the holidays and return it to Titusville in January. It was cheaper doing that then paying the $0.29/mile charge for a one-way rental.

We spent all afternoon loading the car for the trip north. I put out extra lines all around and hopefully, no late season hurricanes will spring up. There's been virtually no activity in the Caribbean over the last two weeks and we hope it will stay that way.

Don't forget the other side either. 
Tonight will be the last blog entry until we return January 7 when the blog will start up again. So mark your calendars for January 7, a Monday, which will be our first day back to Titusville after the holidays, probably a few pounds heavier. This year we won't have a grandkid coming back with us. The youngest one is still too young, maybe next year. It's been fun writing the blog, you're welcome back January 7 for the next installment.

  3. I hope you missed the snow storm on the way back. We woke up to snow on the dock in Tracys Landing, MD. We'll continue our (first) trip south in a couple of weeks and if we're lucky we'll run into you in Florida.
    Best wishes for a happy holiday!
