three months after getting married Kenny signed with a booking agency outof Orlando Florida and quickly began a grueling tour schedule that wouldput him on the road for more than 250 days a year as the opening act forsome of country music’s biggest stars including Kenny Chesney, CharlieDaniels, Lonestar, Sara Evans, Toby Keith, Tracy Byrd and many others.In February 1998 Kenny signed a record deal in Nashville and releasedhis debut album “When you love somebody” and just as his career wastaking off tragedy struck as Kenny and his band were almost killed by adrunk driver while on tour. It took several months to recover from theaccident, and in the spring of 2000 Kenny left the country music industryto serve the Lord as an evangelist.

Save your soda tabs….
Sharon Carnes (Lot 29) is gathering them to take to the Ronald McDonald House in Fort Myers. There is a pitcher in the bar area or leave on the deli counter if you have them bagged.
From Dr. Bob Ossoff, Lot 76Dr. Bob posted this of Facebook a few days ago but asked that we get it to all in the Resort.
I have a few words of advice for everyone regarding the sickness going around the park. • Clean hands save lives. Use your favorite brand of hand sanitizer frequently, before and
after entering and leaving your coach and our buildings and shaking hands, etc. • Cough and sneeze into your arm and not into your hand but by all means cover your mouth and
nose when you do so. • If you are ill, isolate yourself. • If you can catch this in the first 24 hours and think it is the flu(fever, myalgia, cough, and
other flu-like symptoms) get to a health care provider to see about getting a prescription for Tamiflu.
• Drink copious fluids and if you believe in chicken soup, use it. • Stay on top of your symptoms and how you are feeling. • Any breathing problems should probably prompt you to seek medical help early given the
number of cases of pneumonia I have read about.
People are dying from this year’s flu epidemic so all of us need to be very careful. This is by no means a complete recipe of precautions and represents what cane to my mind while waiting to board the plane back to RB.
Please stay well and listen to your body.
