THE WAY IT IS IN FLORIDA

We have been very fortunate to find beautiful places to park our motorhome along the way, as the photos indicate. At the moment we are in Melbourne, about 50 miles SE of Orlando, and near the Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral.

It is most interesting to watch the Republican politics running up to the primary election this coming Tuesday. The candidates are all around us, although we have not seen them first-hand as yet. It is looking like Romney may win, although we would be happier if McCain did.

The evidence of the economic downtown is also all around us. Houses and condos for sale, but not selling are everywhere--especially along the Atlantic coast. There has obviously been a lot of over-building in anticipation of continuing rapid growth that is now not happening. The same story is also true in Tucson. We received an update today from a realtor on homes for sale in our immediate neighborhood--and found out that at least a dozen house are on the market within half a mile from our house! Not good!

Cheers,

Bill and Marie
