Do we stay or do we go

We've been in Florida for 5 months, 2 at one campground and the other 3 at a second location. Considering we slept in 25 states during the previous 6 months, three months in one place is starting to feel like an eternity to me.  So this morning we decided we're leaving Florida campground #2 and, drum roll, return to campground #1.

What! you might wonder. Why back to #1?  Well, it's still winter and northern campgrounds are not open, we have friends in the surrounding towns, and the dogs' vet in in that community.

Moneypenny's been having lots of issues with her chronic ear infection and the nearly 150 mile round trip from campground 2 to the vet has become an ordeal.  He wants to see her at least 2 or 3 more times before we do head out to see if we may fianlly have this ear issue under some control.

One of the biggest reasons though that we've chosen to relocate are the no-see-ums, tiny flying insects that bite and leave itchy welts all over my body.  The bugs bother some people more so than others and I'm one that's really bothered. I have awoken in the middle of the night from the severe itch the bites give me.  Campground 1 does not have issues with no-see-ums, but does have fire-ants and mosquitos. However, that campground does attempt to keep the insects under control.

So we leave Crystal Isles
