It may not look like it, but two beds were covered with clothes 5" deep.....our dear friend, Lynne Ogle, came to "help".....she suggested that perhaps Kathy should try on a few of the "older" items of clothing...just to be sure they fit.....did so, and two zippers split wide open....had to go shopping to replace....hit 70% sale at Stein Mart and had to repack......
and got it ALL in these four suitcases!!!
Nancy and Judd Hunt are driving us to the ship......are they wonderful or what?.....via Gainesville, FL. Here we are checking in to the Reitz Union Hotel, located in the STUDENT UNION of the University of Florida!!! Yeah, there we are, returning to college days.....my, how times have changed.....Staying in the student union turned out to be a great idea....parked the car and never got in it again. We walked everywhere!
Both of these pictures were taken from our hotel balcony......we were THAT close to the football stadium and the basketball arena, known as "The Dome". The Hunt's share our addiction to college basketball, so we got tickets to the Florida/Missouri game on Saturday, February 19......
What we hoped to be a close game was a rout......Florida won by 31 points.....and it was the first time Tom and Kathy, Tennessee, Georgetown and Arkansas alumni and fans, EVER cheered for Florida! We all decided that the University looks like a giant park filled with lovely lakes, parks, gardens, pathways, picnic tables......and some big buildings.
