For the first time this winter, we awoke to a screeching alarm clock. Not the right way to start the day, but we did, nonetheless. Mark wanted to be first in line to get the oil changed in the truck at the Ocala Ford dealer. We arrived at a few minutes after 7:00. At 9:30 and over $100 later, we left to find breakfast and a golf course.
After Burger King breakfast sandwiches, we headed north to Gainesville to golf. Another gorgeous day, and quite windy, and I played much better. Afterwards we headed back to the park, stopping on the side of the road again to check out the gators. Some were still out sunning, but not as many as yesterday.
We had to get back and ready for the big evening. The park put on a "thank you for wintering with us" luau, complete with food, soft drinks, a band, and Hawaiian dancers. 
We had to laugh at the attendance. Most events around the park draw around 100 people, if that many. Tonight's "free" food was attended by hundreds - most of these people we've never seen before. They must just stay in their rigs most of the day.

The food was delicious, and the entertainment was great. The mosquitoes and chiggers biting me were not! The evening ended with the audience singing Tiny Bubbles. It reminded me of my folks watching Don Ho and TV and us watching him sing his theme song. Funny, we knew the words.
