…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…
Some Old Time Rock and Roll!
Carol and I have always liked us some good ole Classic Rock. They just don’t make music like that anymore! And yea sure, I’m new age, got my satellite radio, even listen to my own classic rock stations on Pandora on my phone. But it just ain’t Classic Rock without that vinyl disk going round…
Beach kite and Mexican food!
We’ve been here at Gulf Waters RV Resort for over a week now, and we’ve been having a great time exploring the area. The other day we got bored in the coach and went out ‘splorin. We drove around town, explored the harbor area, saw a bunch of cop cars and flashing lights up by…
Winter in Texas Day Four – Trouble at Ann’s house
Everything’s bigger in Texas! New Years Eve morning 2018 we rolled out of Cajun Palms, heading to “Cousin Ann’s house” in Montgomery, Texas. Montgomery is a suburb north of Houston, some 250 miles from Cajun Palms. After a nice drive including a couple hours on a rural 2 lane, we were in front of Ann’s…
Winter in Texas Day 3
Now this is what I’m talkin about! Woke up this morning (way to early again) to a 73 degree outside temp and a nice ocean breeze coming in the tiny windows next to our bed. After waiting out a brief rain shower, we took the dogs for a walk right about dawn. Fantastic. After day…
Winter in Texas Day 2
No longer a boring title, it’s now a “THEME”! This morning we woke up at 5:30 in Wills Creek RV Park in fort Payne, Alabama, and managed to get rolling by 10 am. That’s actually pretty good for us. No idea where the time goes. Does anyone else pick up a phone or a laptop…
Winter in Texas Day One
Wow, thatsa boring title. Accurate, but boring. East Tennessee isn’t Chicago when it comes to winters, but it’s still cool and cloudy and rains a lot. So we planned to take off after Christmas and head south. We have the month of January reserved at Gulf Waters RV Resort in Port Aransas, TX. This place…
I need to start blogging again… (and more often.)
As many of you know, a little over 2 years ago, we settled in East Tennessee and bought a house. Since then, we just haven’t done many blogposts (not that we blogged enough when we were travelling.) I’ve got lots of reasons (excuses) for that, including: I need to collect and organize my pictures. I…
When In Wisconsin We MUST Do A Supper Club
Ahhhhhhhhh, Wisconsin… Dairy farms, local beers, cheesehead hats, deer running in front of your car on the highway… And Supper Clubs! By definition a Supper Club is a dining establishment, typically found in the upper Midwestern states, and located in rural areas on the edge of town. The Supper Club became popular in the 1930’s…
