Now that we're down to more southern latitudes, we're enjoying warmer weather. We're contemplating putting away the cold weather gear for a while and de-winterizing the camper. Our plan at this point is to begin moving westward but not too quickly. For now we're doing...
In early July 2004 we and CJ were road tripping from St Petersburg to Arlington for a family reunion. We overnighted in theMobile area and had a wonderfully memorable sunset dinner at Felix's Fish Camp where we scored a table looking out over a spectacular sunset over...
This USS Alabama, a World War II battleship is permanently berthed at Battleship Park just east of Mobile, Alabama. We first saw her as a fog shrouded profile in the early morning light on Saturday February 20, 1971 as we were enroute to Mardi Gras in Steve's 1964...
Karen's great great great uncle lived in Mobile, Alabama and though he died in 1877 his name and face are familiar to Mobilians even today. He was Admiral Raphael Semmes of the Confederate States of America. His statue has stood at the foot of Government for more than...
And Washington or Scott Avenue. Actually the the main entrance to the public library in Mobile is on the other side from Government. No crown of kudzu in evidence, no sirens wailing, but we walked through the door from Gulf Coastal heat into the library quiet and...
After a brief visit to Fort Conte, we sought repast to fuel further adventures afoot in Mobile. We followed recommendations that led us to Wintzell's and to order Blackened Redfish Bienville and Bread Pudding with Rum Sauce. Quintessentially Mobile. Yum!
We're camped at Meaher State Park on Battleship Parkway on Mobile Bay. The breeze is glorious and the sunset was lovely. We really enjoyed walking the pier as we made phone calls and set up plans for weekends with family members in Santa Fe and San Francisco.
From a US Highway to a state highway and now to a county road. It's not just blue highways, it's back roads in Alabama. We're headed to Meaher State Park on US-90 just east of Spanish Fort and east of Mobile.
Gadsden to Mobile: GPS tells us to take I-59 but in contrarian manner we're traveling US-11. It's an old friend. In Virginia it's known as Lee Highway. We've met some nice people at the local BB&T and at Sneaky Pete's. Now to navigate our way through Birmingham...
As we pulled into Gadsden, Alabama and approached Noccalula Falls Park, we realized we'd once before been here. This time we camped here and can recommend it as a nice place to camp. It was an easy walk from the campground to the park where we enjoyed the falls, the...
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.

Departing aboard the Norwegian Pearl on a repositoning cruise as the first leg of a three month adventure.
It was a fabulous opportunity to not only view the 2024 Solar Eclipse from within the path of totality but also to enjoy a five day weekend with friends from the T@B trailer community at Ohio’s East Harbor State Park on the shore of Lake Erie.
Spent a most enjoyable March sunny day watching alligators and hiking in St Mark’s National Wildlife Refuge south of Tallahassee, Florida.
