February 7, 2011 – We arrive at Tallahassee for the Florida Fantasy – our feral days over

We awake on February 7th in heavy rain and hop the interstate for Tallahassee – the start of the Florida Fantasy - arriving about noon.  We join a sea of 24 other Airstreams, our companions for the next 50 days, at the Big Oak RV Park.

It has been a great trip, if wet and cold, and we have enjoyed being feral. But it is now time to go communal.  We don our name badges, say hello to old friends, introduce ourselves to people we don't know, and become reacquainted with leaders Al and Gracie -- they led our favorite caravan to date, to Newfoundland/Labrador.  At 2 PM we all gather under the huge oak and have our first meeting.  That night we are again caravaning, in cars, to a Tallahassee country club and probably the finest banquet meal I’ve ever had.   Life is good.
