We're aboard Amtrak's The Crescent on it's daily run from The Big Easy to The Big Apple. We boarded just before 11PM last night in Greenville SC headed to Boston and a few days of hobnobbing with Linus and company. We had a decent night's sleep considering that we are...
Hello house. Hello hot tub. Hello microwave. Hello sofa. Hello wi-fi with no data limits. Hello FaceTime with grandkids. Hello spacious deck. Hello neighbors. Hello mountain views. Hello daffodil shoots. It's been a glorious if unpredictable winter ramble. NOLA, the...
Goodbye Manatee Hammock. Goodbye oak, palm, and orange trees. Goodbye Indian River and Cape Kennedy views. Goodbye beach. Goodbye Frisbee's Ice 30+ flavors of soft freeze. It's been a great three weeks and we've really enjoyed our time here and though it's time now to...
Upon our return to the campground, we made our daily pilgrimage to the office to check the mail and to our delight, we found our new trailer license plate! As soon as we stick the sticker onto the upper right corner and affix the plate to the new tag holder on the...
With some direction from a friend we have made during our stay at Manatee Hammock, we visited the grounds of the White Sands Buddhist Center north of Mims. It's tucked away in an oak woods with no indication from the road of the treasure that lies within. Signs along...
As we wander the country in our T@B we notice that the campgrounds are dominated by huge RVs with just a sprinkling of tents and tiny trailers. That said, it seems like teardrop trailers especially the T@B have become the icon of the RV community. Strings of lights,...
Our adventures for the day, hopefully our last one in Brevard this trip, started out at the North Brevard History Museum, a place chock full of artifacts that speak not only to the history of the area but of American history over the last century and a half. We...
On their fifth attempt, SpaceX successfully launched it's SES-9 Communications satellite aboard a Falcon-9 rocket from Kennedy Space Center this evening. We were among those gathered on the edge of the Indian River due west of the launch site to watch. It was amazing...
It's a place to which we keep returning. We first sampled the yummy soft freeze flavors here at Frissbee's last Sunday after our drive along Mosquito Lagoon. Yesterday we returned not only for ice cream but to search for an elusive geocache. Today we needed a bit of...
It's Leap Day Weekend and we're celebrating by geocaching. With our first find of the weekend we earned a GC souvenir celebrating 366 days of geocaching. In all we scored four finds today. There were a few more searches that although they didn't yield a find still...
Planning a trip? Dreaming of travel? Perhaps some of our adventures could inspire yours! Over the last several years we’ve had the distinct pleasure of many cross country journeys traveling though the Lower 48 in tents and our various teardrop campers as well as an amazing Alaska adventure that did not involve a camper.

Today we celebrate! We received our second vaccine doses two weeks ago today. We invited Steve, our neighbor and pod member, to join us as we headed to the deck, opened a bottle of bubbly, and shouted “Freedom!” We then crafted some spritzers and enjoyed conversation...
Today we've done two of the things that we do every Spring, bring the hammock out of storage and begin to prepare the trailer for travel. It's another gorgeous sunshiny day and once we hooked the hammock onto it's stand we just had to give it a test run. Truly, with...
Over the last year we've spent many a happy evening in the company of Mary & Steve, our neighbors, our pod members. Beginning in mid-March we all adopted the practice of limiting our contacts, social distancing, masking wearing, and staying home as much as...
