Sleeping well was not an option last ni ght – the pain in my arm and wrist kept waking me. Did some research and found a n urgent care center in Naples about 40 , 2009 miles from here called Anchor Health Center. I was taken in immediately and was seen by a very attentive staff. I had a thorough exam, several x-rays taken and was told that I have small radial head fracture that will take 8-12 weeks to heal. GREAT!!!! I did not get casted but was advised to rest my arm/wrist, maintain an ace or soft brace and if no improvement in either my pain or function to seek out an orthopedic surgeon for further intervention. I won’t be mentioning my wrist again- will just wait it out and hope for best. After 3 hours, great care and a bill for $248.00 we headed back to the campground.
On a brighter note, we were hungry and found a Mexican restaurant nearby. The food was excellent. We then toured Marco Island and got back to the campsite around 6 PM. Jewel was very excited to see us.

The weather changed dramatically from 84 degrees to 41 in less then 24 hours. Still sunny and bright so we’re happy. We decided to stay here one more day and enjoy the solitude.
Tomorrow we will be heading into Fort Myers. Ron secured a site at Woodsmoke Campground for two nights. It was a challenge getting a site because all of the campgrounds in that area are full to capacity during the winter months.
