Georgia Coast

We left Winter Park on Monday, May 16 and headed to Jekyll Island – one of the barrier islands of Georgia. On the way we hit 20k miles on our new unit (we have driven over 50k RV miles including our last RV.) We drove back over the Saint Johns River and eventually got back…

Winter Park, FL

On Thursday, May 11 we moved to Beth and Daryl’s house in Winter Park, Fl. and this time we managed to avoid the brick streets that caught us by surprise the last time we drove here in the RV – a much better ride this time. Beth and Daryl had an event to go to…

RIP Yuki

About two weeks ago we got a call from our pet sitter Ronnie that Yuki was not doing so well. We knew she was having kidney issues, and she was already getting fluids every few days. But when Ronnie and our Guardian Angel friend Susan M took her to the vet, she said that her…

Greenville, Plus

It was a short drive on Thursday, April 27 for us to get to our campsite outside of Greenville, SC – but it was another rainy day. So after setting up the RV and gathering up the laundry, we took a quick ride through Travelers Rest and had lunch at a creperie that Catherine had…

Around Asheville

After an uneventful ride from Boone, we arrived at Land of Waterfalls RV Park south of Asheville about 3:00 on Sunday, April 24 and our friend Catherine (who we worked with at Polaroid years ago) arrived about 15 minutes later. After setting up camp, including PUTTING OUT THE SLIDE, we just relaxed watching the women’s…

Boone, NC

Our first two days in Boone were mostly taken up with dealing with the slide issue that I told you about in my last post. But on Wednesday afternoon we did go for a walk around Bass Lake. It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed watching the bufflehead ducks. Then it was back to…

On the Road Again

We are on the road again. We left on Saturday, April 15 – yes that was before tax day, but with Patriot’s Day on Monday I was not doing taxes, so it was a good day to leave. We headed to Bloomsburg, PA – to see my cousin Robyn and her husband Billy. It was…
