Waking to rain on the camper roof, I was worried it would be another day of huddling in the camper to stay out of the weather. Cindy woke up and made us some coffee and while we were sitting outside under the awning, the rain slowly stopped and the skies cleared up. The radar showed […]
I guess the Native Americas, those Yankee’s or the Florida Crackers; or whom ever it was that went around naming the dozens of springs that dot Central Florida were lacking for creative names when it came to the naming of Blue Springs. Cindy and I were planning to take a little vacation to visit some […]
I guess we didn’t realize how lucky we were the last two days until we were woken up this morning. The past two days spent at Blue Springs Campground we basically had the entire thing to ourselves. At its busiest point yesterday there might have been 10 people total in the springs. The water was […]
On our Tuesday Fun Days, we try and find places and things to do that are within an hours drive from Cedar Key. This weeks destination would be the Ellie Schiller Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park that is right off Route 19 in the town of Homosassa. From Cedar Key, this is a little more than […]

As I roll over onto my pillow, it feels as if I’m wiping my face with a cool, wet rag. It’s not the best feeling to know all the bedding is wet. My soft pillow is SOAKING wet. It’s not raining out, but due to the cool temperatures mixing with the warmer water we’re floating […]
Good intentions are so easy to put on the back burner, no matter how good they seem. I remember when we first got to Florida, we had big plans of paddling all the rivers, photographing as many of the State Parks as we could, the lists we made of things to do was pages long […]
How do you decide on your house when you’re going to be towing it around the country formultiple years on a fulltime basis? Here were a few of our considerations when ultimately deciding what we found works for us…
