Edison/Ford revisited

We had to hang around the RV park this morning. We were waiting for Camping World to bring back our tow dolly. They took it last Saturday to do an alignment check and make sure that the electric brakes were up to par. They also found one race of bearings that was worn so much that they needed to be replaced. They brought it back around 1:00, so it it ready for the trip home.

With that out of the way, we headed out for the Edison/Ford Estates in Fort Myers. We had visited there earlier with Sue's dad and Mike and Kim had said that it was a place that they would like to visit. And so we did. Again we took the self-guided tour and went at our own pace. Sue and I both noticed things that we missed the first time and the person who narrated the tour of Edison's botanical lab was much more knowledgeable than the one we had before. It was sunny, with a good breeze, so the day was very enjoyable. It is interesting to try and imagine what it was like for the Edison and Ford families to live there in the early 1900's.

Since we were only a few miles away from our favorite Mexican restaurant, IGUANA MIA, we went there for dinner. Two BOGO coupons that we printed from the internet saved us some dinero also. This establishment is becoming El Campesino-South for us.

When we got back to Upriver, the young people went to the pool and hot tub while the old people just chilled out.
