See Park Video We've spent a couple of days here at the adjacent parks at Kings Mountain in South Carolina just south of the border, close to the RV dealer. The plan was to use this as a shakedown visit. We're identifying some small issues with the trailer and it will...
Finally at long last, it's ours! Early this afternoon we arrived at Country Camping Corner Kings Mountain NC to take delivery of our custom T@B Clamshell camper. We've been dreaming of and planning for this camper for a year. We loved our little Silver Shadow teardrop...
Spent the evening on Treasure Island. We met friend Ed at Sloppy Joe's at the Bilmar. Draft beer and the classic Sloppy Joe sandwich. Yum! Then on to Woo Woo's Tkik Hut. Danced in the sand to "Sea Cruise". Ed offered to take pictures of a group of tourists then posed...
We just learned today that our new Clamshell T@B has been delivered to the dealer in King's Mountain NC. It's not ready for pick up yet. We don't know when it will be ready. We don't know when we will...
We took the day off. Went to breakfast at Beverly's on Corey Avenue. There we met friends Pete, Deb, and Anne. And they presented us with a gift from our friend Al. It's a hand built ceramic butterfly. It's perfect with our home decor. Can't wait to have the chance to...
Mother was discharged to home today and Ed was there to help her and Dad transition to home. So we organized a dinner gathering in downtown St Petersburg at The Tap Room Grille at The Hollander Hotel. When we were growing up in St Petersburg this location was The Bond...
We've been dreaming of it, and planning for it, and negotiating for it. Now, finally we have done it. We've ordered a new camper! It's a T@B Clamshell, a larger teardrop trailer with an exterior kitchen. We've specified a...
Today was a good day for a big breakfast, local eggs, Amish bacon, toast made from Annie's bread, and stone ground grits. The sad part of that was it was the last of the grits that we got at Falls Mill on our Tennessee Ramble. Something in us wants to go back and to...
On our way home we stopped to dream. The weather was cold and gray and rainy but the outlook was bright. We fell in love the the T@B Clamshell camper. As much as we have loved traveling with the Silver Shadow there are times that we yearn for just a little more room...
We started the day in Melbourne in shorts weather. We broke camp, hooked up the Silver Shadow, climbed into the Trailblazer and turned on the air conditioning. We continued our journey up US-1 and A1A stopping for one more look and the sand and the surf in Flagler...
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.

The last two years we have been at Winklepleck to greet Amanda as she arrived prior to üCamp. This year the tables were turned and Amanda was waiting for us. She helped us locate the pedestal we will share with three other trailers and position ours with consideration...
Both Sc@rlett and Eric the Red have spent the Spring getting covered in pollen and then these two days have been collecting road grime. So our first stop in Sugarcreek was at the self service car wash. While we were waiting for the taller and wider bay to become...
First night out. Full hookups so we can flush and sanitize our fresh water tank. Trying Saniclean instead of bleach this time. Also taking time to nest. Many of the things we knew we needed to take just got bundled or bagged and put into the wardrobe. Now it's time to...
