We needed place to stay while visiting Daytona International Speedway, and landed at Beverly Beach Camptown. Still on the tail end of spring breakers, available campgrounds closer to the speedway were a no-go. We prefer to be on the beach whenever possible, anyway. Finding one in this area directly on the beach is rarity. As you might imagine, hotels occupy most of…

Today we traveled north to Fiesta Key RV Resort and Marina. Our home for the next week, and a little closer to the airport for Brent and Jill, since they’re flying out tomorrow (BOO!) Once there, we set up camp, and were welcomed by an amazing creature! After B&J checked in to on-site their motel room, we all…

After a hearty brunch at Blue Heaven, a stroll was in order, so we headed to nearby Duval Street. On our way I spotted a place that made me think of our nephew and his wife: Enough champagne with do this to a person: We spent quite some time at Wyland…

While standing in line to have our photo taken at The Southernmost Point, we noticed several people with bright blue mylar butterflies clinging to them. Some on their hats, some on their shirts, some on backpacks, some on purses. These little butterflies where everywhere. We found out that just up the street and around the corner was The Key West Butterfly and Nature Conservatory.…

Brent and Jill are here! Woohoo! To quote them, “Most people photo bomb, we vacation bomb.” Funny and true. We had only planned to see them in Galveston. Those two crazy kids decided to join us in the Florida Keys! They rented a waterfront trailer only a few sites down from ours, and arrived right at sunset. Hugs all around,…

Can you believe the photo above is unretouched? True story. That’s the color the camera captured. Breathtaking. Okay, back to our regularly scheduled program… We drove from Tampa all the way to the Florida Keys, with one stop for lunch. We had eaten our share of sandwiches in the RV, and fish and seafood at restaurants recently. What we were…

Oh my goodness, this place is Caribbean beautiful. Heck, we’ve been to some places in the Caribbean that can’t measure up to Destin, Florida. We had no idea just how much we would like it here when we chose this as our stop for a few days. The sand is sugar white, dries to a soft powder, and brushes off…

We’ve traveled in our RV to New Orleans twice before, and each time the highway takes us through the bayou, we dream of being on a boat getting up close and personal with the creatures that inhabit the murky water, and moss covered trees. Well, today was our lucky day. After a little research and asking the locals, we settled…

We stayed at Traveler’s World RV Park while in San Antonio. I wanted to find a nice, secure, well-appointed park to stay at that was close to downtown, and this place fit the bill quite nicely. The office staff were friendly, There were groundskeepers constantly grooming, and maintenance guys buzzing about. We’d recommend this place for sure. While we weren’t going…
