A propane campfire, a mug of perked coffee, and a bowl of sausage scramble. It's a most salubrious outdoor breakfast. The weather doesn't quite qualify as warm, but it's not driving us inside the T@B for shelter either. It's the first time this trip that we've felt...

Breakfast in Blountstown
Blountstown is a small town in the Florida Panhandle at the intersection of two state highways just west of the Appalachicola River. Most folks from outside the area have not heard of it and it's enough off the beaten path that through travelers don't even pass...
Wewehitchka FL
Ever heard of this place? We hadn't. We were just driving north on FL Hwy 71 when we saw a sign for a campground not listed in any of the apps we had consulted. We pulled in and found a delightful little Dead Lakes Park RV & Campground with a gracious host, a...
Road Trip with Lou & Bill
After countless trips past Micanopy as we traveled through Alachua County through the years we stopped here this morning and discovered a delightful old Florida town that beckons us to return.
Delta IV GPS Satellite Launch
The buzz around the campground was of the launch tonight from Kennedy Space Center. We choose a viewing site to which we'd enjoy walking. With a stop at Xtreme Ice Cream along the way, we walked out to the Atlantic and meandered north along the dark beach aware of...
Barrier Island Living
We're settling here in Cape Canaveral. We'll be here for six nights total. Considering that our usual campground stay is one or two nights, this is a long one. The lifestyle is a bit like we had when we lived in downtown St Petersburg but the beach is closer. Today we...
Indian River Sunset
After brunch with Gary today, we hitched Eric the Red up to our Gypsy Wagon and headed into the East. We phoned ahead to make reservations at Wickham Park and discovered they had no vacancy. Time for a change of plans. Checked the Woodalls app and a few other...
Leaving the Sunshine Behind
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...
Melbourne and the Beach
We woke up to another glorious Florida winter day. Temperature perfect. Skies blue. We chose to just hang out in the campground all morning. Brought the arm chairs out into the shade of the trees and read our books. Then at midday we climbed into the car rolled down...
On Top of Ol’ Hobe
We headed south on US-1 hoping to connect with a friend of Steve’s from high school days. Didn’t make the connection but did discover Jonathan Dickinson State Park near Hobe Sound. We climbed the observation tower atop Hobe Mountain which at 86 feet elevation is 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.
