We put off having Dora weighed as long as we could, but today was the day we got her on the scales! The annual vehicle registration folks from South Dakota sent us a form to complete last month and it asked for her weight. We gave them the manufacturers maximum weight from the manual but… Continue reading 02.01.14 Dora is a slim chick!!!

01.30.14 Mount Dora …… is that a mountain named after our RV Dora?
Never, ever in our previous non RV life would I imagine myself pulling into a strange shopping center parking lot and calling it home. Yet that's what we've done a few times including today. We have our own supply of water and can generate our own electricity for a little while so we're set! We're… Continue reading 01.30.14 Mount Dora …… is that a mountain named after our RV Dora?
01.30.14 Bye Bye Bee’s RV Resort!
We are leaving Bee's RV Resort on our way to St. Augustine to visit our friends Russ and Annie. The weather is really bad in St. Augustine right now (the Louisiana weather must be making it's way there) so we're going to stop at a nearby Sams for the night and try to drive there… Continue reading 01.30.14 Bye Bye Bee’s RV Resort!
01.29.14 Universal Orlando parks still standing, Chauvins……. not so much, but loved every minute of it!
We had an absolutely marvelous fun time at Universal Studios and Universal Islands of Adventure! The ride waits were not bad, except for two or three of them. The weather was perfect - in the 70s both days! Some new rides awaited us since the last time we went to Universal. The rides now incorporate… Continue reading 01.29.14 Universal Orlando parks still standing, Chauvins……. not so much, but loved every minute of it!
01.26.14 Honey Pot, Lakeridge Winery, Abracadabra and RV Park Worship!
Our stay at Bee's RV Resort has been an enjoyable one thus far. This is really a place where the snowbirds land when leaving the cold north for the sunny south. Most of the park are plots of 800+ square feet that you can buy and it's yours to bring your RV whenever you want,… Continue reading 01.26.14 Honey Pot, Lakeridge Winery, Abracadabra and RV Park Worship!
01.23.14 Day Three (Final Day) – RV Window Repair
Day three is our final day in the process of having our windows defogged. We were originally told it might take five days so we're pretty happy with how fast they did their work. Our cardboard window coverings are a thing of the past. In their place are beautifully clear and shiny defogged windows. After… Continue reading 01.23.14 Day Three (Final Day) – RV Window Repair
01.21.14 Day One – Window Repair Journal
We pulled in on Monday, the 20th at Suncoast Designs in Hudson, Florida. Checked in at the office and parked Dora for the night. This morning, Tuesday, the 21st, someone came to assess the work they are going to do for us. I was still sleeping so there are no pictures of this part! They… Continue reading 01.21.14 Day One – Window Repair Journal
01.16.14 You never know what you’ll find if you don’t stop and look~~
As we drove along the Mississippi Gulf Coast yesterday looking at the beautiful beaches, something very unusual caught our eye. Four spaceship like round shaped shiny buildings with no windows were under construction across the road from the sandy beaches. We decided not to stop then but to do so on our way back from… Continue reading 01.16.14 You never know what you’ll find if you don’t stop and look~~
01.16.14 Hot roding down the coast on a beautiful sunny day!
It's been many weeks since Roy and I went out to discover a new city or in this case rediscover cities we've loved for years. Growing up in southern Louisiana our families came to the Mississippi Gulf Coast throughout our youth many times. Roy and my honeymoon was spent in Gulfport at a beachfront hotel… Continue reading 01.16.14 Hot roding down the coast on a beautiful sunny day!
01.11.14 From Berryland Campers (Hammond, LA) to TLC Wolf River Resort (Pass Christian, MS)
As we departed our little spot at Berryland Campers I decided to take some pictures of where we've been living. We were located in the back, to the left of Berryland Campers off the I-12 Service Rd. You would take the Airport Road exit and come back down the service road to get there. It's… Continue reading 01.11.14 From Berryland Campers (Hammond, LA) to TLC Wolf River Resort (Pass Christian, MS)
