As we leave the Ashville NC area under overcast rainy skies and the highway takes us over the Great Smoky Mountains. Being from Alaska and the NW we are certainly used to mountains and rugged scenery; these mountains don’t have the height and majesty of our side of the country but are very beautiful with […]
We get an early start wanting to see as much as we can. Thankfully the sky is blue again and the temperature is comfortable, Ashville has a deep history and is the home for University of North Carolina creating an atmosphere of arts & culture. The downtown is thriving with new construction and a great […]
The rain keeps coming down and it’s time for the RV to have an oil change. Finding an oil change place can be a challenge because of the height of the RV, although ours is only 11′ 6″ I could only find one place in Asheville NC. Super Lube on Leicester Hwy got us in […]
We are leaving Yamasee SC today and headed towards Ashville NC, the weather is clear this morning but the weatherman says there will be lots of rain where we are going to, Fair Play NC. This town was named for a fight that took place and a bystander yelled out Play Fair to the fighters, […]
We are saying goodbye to Tybee and headed to Yemasee, South Carolina where there is a Thousand Trails camp site waiting for us. As I have pointed out before we do our best to stay in these campgrounds because its free with our membership. We get to Yemasee (The Oaks at South Point RV) early […]
We are up early ready to explore Tybee Island and of course find coffee for Angela. The weather is drizzly and rain coats are needed, its warm but wet. Our camp site is done in white rock and Oak trees, pretty common in eastern costal areas. We don’t have to walk to far to find […]
Waking up to over cast skies but still warm and humid we are ready for a bite to eat, Yelp points us down the street to the Beach Diner, we walk there and from the outside it looks like its home-grown restaurant. Upon entering we are embraced by a friendly staff who you can tell […]
We have departed Clermont FL and heading north to make it to the Coachmen Manufacturing plant in Middlebury IN, that’s 1,123 miles if I drive the freeways all the way there. We have been careful to map things out, check the weather and how long it will take to get there, our appointment is Thursday, […]
We are starting to familiarize ourselves with the huge RV park and also the city of Clermont. Clerbrook RV Park has many clubhouses with pools and an 18-hole golf course which is extremely popular, we have found people from all over the United States here but mostly from northern tier states to escape the winters. […]
We wake to a warm morning and sounds of Sandhill Cranes, the sound can be a little unnerving if you are not use to it or familiar with the sound. These birds in the resort have been cultivated as many of the resort community feed them. They are not intimidated by humans and you can […]
We leave our Rainbow Springs Campsite to head north to Clermont FL where our next stay will be for two weeks at another Thousand Trails RV Park Clerbrook RV & Golf. It’s warming up as we head north our destination is not too far so we are no rush knowing the next stop we can […]
We leave Fort Myers Sunseeker RV Park thankfully and head to Dunnellon, FL where Rainbow Springs FL state park resides, we were lucky to get a camping spot that allows a pull through as we are only going to be here one night. The park has two parts, the area we stayed in was for […]
We are heading to our friends house of Gavin & Alverne’s in Inverness Florida today, they are the parents of Terri & Jamie’s who live in Alaska who we have known for over 30 years. Inverness FL is rated one of the best places to live in the USA and we are anxious to see […]
