Waking up to the feeling that I’ve made it to 40! Wow, who would have ever thought I’d make it this far in life? Not me, that’s for sure, especially after last night. Check out wasn’t until noon, which was perfect since no one in our party was up and moving all that early. Cindy […]

Minnesota Part 1
We try and visit our great friends Derrick and Tish as often as possible. They usually come during the winter months to escape the frozen tundra of Minnesota and we try and get away for a week or so during our hot, muggy late summer months. Although the last time we visited them, it was […]
Busy Before Vacation Comes
The past few weeks have been non-stop busy before we leave for a weeks vacation to head up to Minnesota to visit Derrick and Tish and celebrate my 40th Birthday. We had a ton of fun with the 4th of July weekend and stayed crazy busy here at the Motel and the Hideaway Tiki Bar. […]
Work Hard, Play Hard
I’ve always believed that if you work your butt off, then you should treat yourself to something fun as a reward. That old motto of Work Hard, Play Hard Last week, Cindy and I took a few days off before the 4th of July weekend knowing full well that when we returned, we’d be slammed […]
Devils Den Springs, Williston Florida
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 […]

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 […]
Summer is Here
The summer heat is upon us with days being spent either sweating like a dog if doing anything outside, or escaping into the comforts of the A/C. Problem is once you go into the house and cool off, it only makes going back outside even more miserable. It’s easier to just stay outside all day […]
Crystal River – More Snorkeling Lessons
We woke up early this morning after a great nights sleep and both couldn’t wait to get back out on the water. I had checked on Google Maps and wasn’t too comfortable with trying to motor the boat over to Crystal River through the mirage of canals and waterways leading from the Homosassa River to […]
Homosassa River – Snorkeling Lessons
Cindy and I were talking a few days back about underwater photography and the fact that it’s something that I really enjoy, and how it sucks so bad that she’s afraid to go underwater. We talked about it all night long and the next day she says to me, “I’ve been thinking about what we […]
