Grassy Waters of Florida – The Everglades
We were unsure what to expect of the Everglades before our visit here. When I thought of the Everglades, scenes of Miami Vice or CSI Miami (to be a bit more current) on an airboat, or the terrible ValueJet Flight 592 crash that occurred here in 1996, came to mind. My imagination was quickly corrected as…

A birthday celebration with Gators and Birds – Shark Valley, Everglades
Our January stay at Bonita Springs went by too quickly. The next thing we knew the slides were coming in and the jacks were coming up, and off we went. On the move again, we headed even further south to “The Glades”, the Everglades that is. Shark Valley lies in the heart of the “True…

Beach Scenes – Bonita Springs, FL
We all know the first thing that comes to mind when we think of Florida – lots of white sand beaches!

Has another year rolled by already?
Yes, and what a journey it was! Our second year of living on the road is winding down as 2013 comes to an end. We pause to reflect and look back at where we’ve been, the many new friends we’ve made, the old friends we’ve reconnected with and the challenges we overcame as we rolled…

The amazing Kennedy Space Center, FL
We have both regretted that we never made it to a shuttle launch, Lord knows we really wanted to. But upon our arrival in the Orlando area, one of the first things we did was learn how far away the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) was from our park. About 50 miles – that’ll work! At…
