02.11.14 Not working at Disney and free Valentine’s cards
Early on in our travels I wrote about our desire to work at Disney World and have been asked by a few friends if we applied when we were in Florida. I want to share with you that we decided not to pursue a Disney job. We've loved our many visits to Mickey's World and… Continue reading 02.11.14 Not working at Disney and free Valentine’s cards
02.08.14 Scrumpdeliumptious simplified recipe RV size pot of GUMBO!
In my previous sticks and bricks house life, when I cooked gumbo it was always two gigantic pots worth. Too much work to not have plenty to freeze. Since we now have reduced room for cooking and reduced freezer space, I've worked diligently to reduce my gumbo size to work in our now tinier lifestyle. We've… Continue reading 02.08.14 Scrumpdeliumptious simplified recipe RV size pot of GUMBO!
02.08.14 Cypress trees, swamps, two baptisms and Roy’s new toy in Marianna, Florida
We are staying at Arrowhead Campgrounds in Marianna, Florida, until Monday. They are a Passport American campground so it is not free to us, but it is 50% off since we're Passport America members. On my morning stroll I made my way over (not far at all) to the water front where I discovered many… Continue reading 02.08.14 Cypress trees, swamps, two baptisms and Roy’s new toy in Marianna, Florida

02.07.14 How to Begin Forgiving Our Parents, a reposted blog by Ann Voskamp
As I saw comfortably in my rocker outside our RV this afternoon, after making camp in Marianna, Florida, I came across the blog below. It hit me straight in my heart and wanted to share it in case it reaches out to someone in a broken family relationship. You may recognize this blog from previous… Continue reading 02.07.14 How to Begin Forgiving Our Parents, a reposted blog by Ann Voskamp
02.06.14 Quaint shops, magnificent fort, wine tasting and more!
We started Tuesday by taking a tour of San Sebastian Winery. Turns out they are owned by the same people that own the Lakeridge Winery we toured in Clermont, Florida. San Sebastian's grapes all come from Clermont, Florida but they make different wines in St. Augustine than they do in Clermont. This tour was very… Continue reading 02.06.14 Quaint shops, magnificent fort, wine tasting and more!
02.05.14 Red Train ride to the Fountain of Youth and Ripley’s Believe It or Not and more!
St. Augustine is an amazing city steeped in history. It’s much more than beautiful beaches and a spectacular ocean. We learned so many things about this area that we did not know before. It was officially established in 1565 making it the oldest continually occupied city in our nation. There are a couple of train… Continue reading 02.05.14 Red Train ride to the Fountain of Youth and Ripley’s Believe It or Not and more!

The weather on our first evening here in St. Augustine was very foggy and wet, yet we strolled over to the Atlantic Ocean to get our first view! Russ and Annie's house is in Treasure Beach right off of A1A highway and they have this pathway directly to the ocean. A few folks were out… Continue reading 02.02.14 The Atlantic Ocean at St. Augustine!
