Today we were very lucky to catch up with a couple of really fine folks at their camp in Melbourne, Florida. Jim and Janice Rhode have been our friends for many, many years and were once residents of Nevada as well as California near Truckee. Janice Rhode was my very first unit supervisor when I left the Division Parole and Probation and went to work for the Department of Public Safety in their IT Division. In that same time period, Jim worked in management for the Nevada Highway Patrol. Since my job was to help employees of the various divisions under the umbrella of Pubic Safety, I would often visit Jim when he had computer problems.
Fortunately, when Jim and Janice learned our our plans to be in Florida, they invited us to cross from the Gulf side of the state to the Atlantic side and visit them at their camp. Once our camp was set up across the street from theirs, Janice fixed dinner for the four of us and we spent some wonderful after-dinner time talking about everything from grandkids and geneaology to Jim and my military service times. The four of us had great time and some great wine and we certainly appreciate them thinking about us.
