Unplanned trip to Florida

Mid March found my nephew and I driving to Florida.  My parent's were there camping as they are every winter, snow birds.  My father had a hear attack at the end of February and we were going to visit and be with them when he had a his second surgery to put a stint in.

We left on a Thursday night at 8pm from PA and arrived at the campground at 1pm on Friday.  We were bushed but glad we got there timely.  My other nephew and his girlfriend were already there since Wednesday night-they had driven too.

We all had a good time visiting, enjoying the nice Florida weather, and great seafood.

My nephew and his girlfrien left on Sunday while his brother and I had a few more days to visit.  The day of my dad's surgery, they thought he would be there overnight for observation, but ended up going in at 7:30am and leaving at 9pm.  He would have left earlier but his blood pressure decided to rise and he could leave until it went down.  He is doing well.

My nephew and I left Wednesday night at 7pm and arrived back in PA at 11:30am on Thursday.  Again we were bushed but had an unremarkable drive.  Thankfully  the weather was nice when we arrived which made our departure from Florida a little more bearable.

We were truly blessed with a good trip.
