We visited Blue Springs State Park to see the manatees.  There were only ten that were sighted that day so we had to search for them.  We were able to get some photos of a mama and two babies.  



We visited the Turnby house.  The Turnby family owned the land that is now the state park and the family's history is displayed in the home.



The trees covered with Spanish moss were beautiful.  




We had a nice picnic lunch before we left the park.



We visited The Villages and took a trolley tour of the property.  It was quite impressive.  The population of The Villages is 120,000.  There are every conceivable sport and activity available to the residents.  

We met some of our RV friends at R J Gators for lunch.  It was good to see our snowbird friends. Some of them have become permanent Floridians.  







We ordered their famous dessert, the gator tail.  The big one has over a half gallon of ice cream in it.  



At four o'clock, all drinks in all the bars and restaurants are two for one.  



We'll spend Tuesday at the park visiting.  We pull out on Wednesday and head for home.
