ON THE ROAD WITH THE EVERHARTS
It’s off to the Seminole Indian Reservation for a stay at
their wide open spaces RV Park. Bob, Sheila, and Bobbie Lhea Everhart,
of Anita, Iowa, are off on another adventure. “We like to stay in the
State Parks,” Bob said, “but the snowbirds fill them up and it’s almost
impossible to find a spot in the months of February and March. They all
come down from the Northeast, and who can blame them, the winter has
been so incredibly bad this year. The RV park we are in is far removed
from civilization, it’s 50 miles just to the nearest grocery store, so
we had to stock up. We like the park because it is not only isolated,
the wildlife is incredible, and our campers are far far apart from each
other. It’s also not so expensive.”
“We had one really nice gig while we were at Big
Cypress,” Sheila added. “it was the monthly program for the Broward
Folk Music Club. The show was at the Big Picture Cafe in Davie,
Florida, (about 45 miles away) and we just loved it. It wasn’t a really
large room, but it was standing room only, and that made it kind of
neat. The cafe’ is a sort of health food and coffee house. We really
enjoyed performing for the folkies that came, and we were really
surprised to see Tom & Bernie Worrell come in from Miami. Of course
we promptly did a spot with Bernie playing the bones, and you should
have heard the roar from the audience when ‘Redwing’ was over with.
What a treat.”

“I thought the folk club was neat,” Bobbie Lhea added,
“there were even people there from Argentina, Guana, and Norway, so it
was pretty special. I also got some herbal tea to take home with me. I
have some just before bedtime. Dad didn’t have to worry so much about a
budget lunch either, he found one for free. At the RV park we are
staying at they have free hamburgers and hotdogs every Sunday afternoon,
along with finger food and whatever else they bring for pot-luck, so of
course this is our ‘budget lunch’ for this week.”
