Year: 2019

Traverse City, MI – Sleeping Bear

July 28, 2019

Alas my first two weeks visit to the north/west side of Michigan is now in the record books. There sure was a lot to see and do in this area, and its beauty and splendor was most certainly seen and appreciated. This truly is a summer wonderland with outdoor recreation a plenty. I’m glad I […]

Midland, MI – East Side

July 11, 2019

This would be my first trip ever to Michigan – so expectations were high. I’m certainly familiar with its reputation during the winter months as having brutally cold temperatures, and an annual snowfall more commonly measured in feet than in inches. But it is in the summer months that this place really stands out. When […]

KY and OH – Who Knew

July 4, 2019

After departing from the the paradise that was Dandridge, TN, my next notable destination was to be Michigan. I’ll spend the better part of the summer in this state – two week on the east coast, followed by 6 weeks on the west coast. To get there from TN, I had planned two stopovers – […]

Dandridge, TN – RV Paradise

June 25, 2019

A moon lit night as the sun falls for the day. Wow – what can I say. I’ve been looking forward to spending time at this RV resort since I made the reservations some 14 months ago. It was everything all have said about it, and more. Truly one of the best, if not THE […]

Chattanooga, TN – Fun with Family

May 31, 2019

Here’s a nice view of downtown Chattanooga as seen from the vantage point on the top of Lookout Mountain. It was a quick two week stopover in Chattanooga, but plenty to see and do in this beautiful area. It was particularly special having my cousin spend a couple of days with me here at the […]

Birmingham, AL – Site Seeing

May 17, 2019

As I sit here, now in the area of Chattanooga, TN, to write about my visit to Birmingham, I am just awe struck at the beautiful, majestic, mountainous, tree-filled view that I have here from my combo dining table/computer desk. It’s a wonderful reminder to just how fortunate I am to live this nomadic lifestyle. […]

Panama City Beach, FL – Hurricane

May 4, 2019

I spent my remaining weeks in the Panama City Beach area visiting with friends, checking out local attractions, and most importantly, seeing first hand the devastation caused by Hurricane Michael from Oct of last year. Truly levels of destruction beyond anything that I had ever seen, and more reminiscent of what you might expect from […]

Panama City Beach, FL – Wow!

April 25, 2019

The title says it all – Wow! I have had so many Wow moments these past few weeks, I barely know where to start. This campground resort (pictured above) is a Wow, the remnants of destruction from Hurricane Michael are a Wow, and my trip back to MD was a Wow. So where do I […]

Fort Myers, FL – West Coast Tour

April 5, 2019

Though I’ve been to Florida many, many times in my life, I’ve seldom been to the west coast of the state. So, I figured I might as well spend some time out here to get to know the area. Boy, am I glad I did. So much to see and do here – it was […]

Fort Pierce, FL – Short Visit

March 7, 2019

With wonderful beaches, terrific weather, restaurants a plenty, and a vibrant downtown, Fort Pierce is an outstanding destination for any traveler. All that, coupled with lots of family and friends in the area, this two-week stay flew by with vigor. Seems like I had just arrived, and already I’ve departed and am now on the […]
