Tales of the Florida Panhandle
As I write this we are currently somewhere in the Ozarks of Arkansas and it’s May. Looking back I have plenty to catch up on. Let’s take a trip back in time. The time is March and the place is the panhandle of Florida. Our last two stays in Florida were very different yet I […]

One Year on the Road!
April 1, 2022 marked one year on the road. In some ways it seems like a lifetime has passed. Our lives completely changed practically overnight (in real time it was 6 weeks) and we have explored some pretty amazing places in the last year. Writing this post is bittersweet. What if we didn’t do this? […]

February 2022 – Part 2: A General Store, Homosassa, Silver Springs, Manatees, Dolphins, and More Alligators
Continued from part 1, if you missed it click here for that post. Camping – Part II Hampton Campground – Green Swamp East Tract This was my least favorite of the water management district campgrounds, although it grew on me during our week stay. It was smaller with more people camping here. In fact it […]

February 2022 – Part 1: Kayaking, Caving, Alligators and Dolphins!
Pardon the absence but the month of February in Florida has treated us well. Quality time with our Florida family and lots of exploring have kept me away from the blogging world. No complaints here, it’s been quite a lot of fun this past month. Where to begin, so many new adventures and enjoying warm […]

January 2022: National Forest Hopping in Florida
As we prepare for our departure I look back fondly on the last month. No exciting stories or days filled with hiking, kayaking, exploring but simply living our normal lives in the woods and I love every minute of it. The colder, rainy days mixed in with warmth and sunshine. Wearing sweatshirts and jeans and […]

Barrington County Park, GA: Ringing in the New Year!
Barrington County Park may sound rather mundane but this place turned out to be quite special for a variety of reasons. This campground is located about 1 hour south of Savannah and is completely free! Now that doesn’t sound too special as there are plenty of free spots. But what this campground offered for free […]

Two National Forests + A Race Track
Uwharrie National Forest Our next stop was a perfect combination of location, camping spot, and plenty to explore. The Uwharrie National Forest is between Raleigh and Charlotte, roughly equidistant to both cities. For us this was the perfect stop between family visits. Two of Shane’s siblings live in North Carolina, a brother in Raleigh and […]

Red River Gorge, A Rest Area, and A Hunter’s Camp
Finally getting out of Indiana felt freeing. As we drove across the bridge from Indiana into Kentucky through Madison, IN it became real. We were heading southward chasing warmer temperatures. Josie had the biggest adjustment. After 7 months of riding in the passenger seat of the RV while I drove separately, she had to find […]

Colder Temps, The Toad, Projects, and Time with Family + Friends
During the back half of October and through November we had plenty to keep us busy. Hence why I’m behind on my blog posts. I’m finally finding time to catch up a bit. While visiting family in Michigan we finally found our “toad”. That’s RV speak for the vehicle to flat tow behind our RV. […]

Sorry for the hiatus from here. No we did not quit RVing nor did we fall off the face of the earth, I’m just behind on updating my blog posts. The past month and half have kept us quite busy with projects and visiting family and friends. But before I get to that I wanted […]
