day 3: still in Monticello

Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand.

Psalm 19:21
The club house where we spent most of the afternoon, doing laundry and social media-ing. There are also comfy couches, a pool table, a big tv and tons of books. Not a bad place to be stuck.
The bathroom even has great lighting for me to put on my make-up, ha …NOT!
Bruce got in another swim this morning. It takes a lot of laps in a family pool. Not quite WSC or Sante Fe Lake.

It’s been a pretty chill day here at the Tallahassee East Campground. I went for a little jog/walk while Bruce swam laps this morning. I took a shower in the park bathroom this morning and was shocked to see how nice it was. I took a video that you might be able to see on my instagram (brucepamc2c) but I’m kinda struggling with that part of the social media. Point of clarification: I did NOT take the video while I was taking a shower. I took the video fully clothed before I entered the shower.

We rode the cycle into town and had a delicious Mexican lunch at Rancho Grande.
MMMMM delish!

We took the cycle in to Monticello to explore a bit and found a Mexican restaurant for lunch. It started raining on our way back home and has been raining ever since. I got the laundry all done and now we are just hanging out in the lodge community room. I’m about to start working on my Swahili. I have to be able to practice with Carmilla when we stay with her in Dallas. 🙂 We aren’t sure yet as to whether we will have to stay another day here or will be able to move on tomorrow. Chatahoochee is under a tropical storm warning right now but may be fine tomorrow. We just talked to a lady who’s brother lives in Pensacola and she said they were pretty hammered. Lots of flooding. I will need to call the Florida Dept of Transportation and see what they say. We will not put ourselves in any danger. This is not a race.

Our hangout for today.

  3. Hi there. I’m a friend of Nancy and Larry’s. My hubby and I have competed in triathalon . I was a USA club swim coach for several years and now a High School Coach.
    Happy you’re taking time in the pool. Helps legs and cardio stay in shape.

  4. I’m glad you are safe and in a beautiful place while waiting for the weather to pass! I’m guessing you’re itching to get back out there though!
    If it works with your schedule, we would love to see you for a quick hello when you get to Keller!
