LD sightings in FL January 19, 2016, 08:00:42 am Yahoo Message Number: 158177Rare sightings in Florida? Come north to Bushnell as there are two of us at Sumter Oaks Escapees park. There was a third one here last week and I have seen some on I-75.Mike (recuperating from spinal surgery at campgrounds)

If you feel up to it, why don't you join us?Bob (NELD #69)

Re: Yalaha Bakery Reply #5 – January 19, 2016, 12:04:29 pm Yahoo Message Number: 158186Tom and Kristen,To call it a donut shop would be a gross understatement! Here is their website:http://www.yalahabakery.com/Other details from a posting in the SELD group:"In 2016 it will be February the 27th. If you need to stay overnight, Ridgecrest Resort, Ph# 352-787-1504. The Mgr. is Nancy.

The address of the bakery is not there but the date and nearest camp ground is. The GTG takes place on 2/27. Near by camp: Ridgecrest Resort, Ph# 352-787-1504.Perhaps someone from the SE group will see this post and give the address of the bakery. Wish I was going this year. This seems to be a fun event.
