On January 28th, we lost the best dog ever. Riley was a 15 year old Norwegian Elkhound, and spent all 15 of those years being the sweetest, most friendly dog we’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. He just loved everybody!! It’s never easy to lose a fur baby, and even worse when you’re on…

Space Coast
Cocoa Beach, NASA, Space Coast KOA 02-28-2021. After we left Daytona, we wanted to stop in the Space Coast, you know, see NASA, go to Cocoa Beach, see if we could find Jeannie, stuff like that. It seems campgrounds are few and far between here, most are full even though it was Sunday night, and…
Ft Myers 2021 Day 3 & 4
Destination: Daytona! I’ve been a car guy and a NASCAR fan since, well forever. I watched Cale Yarborough and The Allison Brothers when I was a kid. Daytona has always been the Holy Grail of Speed. I watched Daryll Waltrip win here. I watched Dale Earnhardt die here. I’ve always wanted to go here myself,…

Best restaurant and campground on Jekyll Island, GA.
Traveling again!
Feb 22, 2021 Wow, 2020 was one strange year. Yeah The Rona made it crazy, and the election was nuts, but that’s not the half of it. In late June, after we returned from Hilton Head Island (a great place and a fabulous trip, I’ll blog more about it when I have time) my darling…
USS Kidd
Being a Navy Vet as well as a history buff, I’m into all things military, especially all things Navy. In our travels, we’ve toured 2 battleships and an aircraft carrier. (Alabama, Texas, and Lexington). The big ships are fun, but I prefer the “small fry”, as that’s where I served. As far as I know,…
Where does the time go?
And why did I pause blogging again? I did good until about 3/4 done with our Texas winter trip. We spent a total of thirty days at Gulf Waters RV Resort. This was the first time we’d payed attention to being in a “Fancy Ownership Resort” but it was really really nice, and the idea…
A Day Out To Aransas Pass
…And this is why we travel. It’s the places that we get to see, and the people that we get to meet along the way that makes this lifestyle so addictive. You just never know who/what you’re going to see/do next, and life is a new adventure every day! I love to travel and I…
USS Lexington Tour
On Thursday the seventeenth, we drove into Corpus Christi to tour the aircraft carrier USS Lexington, CV-16. Lex is moored in Corpus Christi Bay, across the shipping channel from downtown, in the area known as North Beach. Lexington was commissioned in 1943, and served in the Pacific Theater during World War 2. She was damaged…
