You often hear the best part of RVing is meeting new friends along the way. There is no more true statement. We enjoyed meeting our "camp neighbors" Jim and Maxine last evening - sharing travel stories, life experiences and grilling steaks.Jim and Maxine are from Palatka, Florida and have retirement in their sights. Maxine is in real estate and Jim is a Barber. They just took delivery of a new 5th wheel and were getting familiar with the way everything works. (Boy can we relate!) They were in Jacksonville visiting their son (Matt, a Jacksonville policeman) and their daughter (Melissa was in town for a friends wedding, she lives in Los Angeles and works in HR, her boyfriend is also a policeman).
Even though Jim was on vacation we put Jim to work cutting Joe's hair Sunday morning. We keep an emergency pair of clippers on hand for "buzz cuts" when we can't find a barber. Joe looks much better - thanks Jim!
Free haircuts aside - we had such an enjoyable evening getting to know each other, teasing the kids and sharing laughs. We have to get together with Jim and Maxine again...I'll get to work on that!
