Yep, we’re still in St. Joe. It’s a long story, but to avoid tedium I’ll just mention the high (low) spots. When we took the RV out of storage, we noticed that the tag had expired, so we stayed over till Monday (which was a good idea anyway since I wasn’t finished cleaning out the [...]
Oops, ignore that map I posted the other day. Plans have changed. Instead, we will be taking the eastern route this year: With possible spontaneous variations, the dates and destinations are now posted on our travel calendar. We had thought about leaving earlier, but between grad school demands, doctor appointments and just plain not being [...]
This will be a very short post, since I’m just snatching a few moments away from studying, but I wanted to update our Fall travel plans here. We hope to get started on our snowbird migration by November 1st or so. This is our proposed route:
Isn’t that what the Florida Chamber of Commerce calls this weather? At least it’s not hot and muggy. Chilly and muggy I can live with. Today was a bit of a pleasant surprise. Highway 98 took a sudden left in Perry, and when we saw the sign we were in the right lane, but there [...]
Less than a week to go till Christmas, and I’m busy procrastinating the last few tasks left to do before company starts arriving. James & his family will get here Tuesday evening, so that’s my deadline. Naturally, I’m doing all kinds of other stuff to avoid my responsibilities. Right now I’m having lots of fun [...]
In case you haven’t heard from us yet, we did get to our winter, or at least holiday, home. It’s been a little hectic trying to get settled in, with tons of mail and packages to collect and go through, and just physically getting set up. First, when Phil went to connect the waste water [...]
We’re on our way again after a longer stop in Florida’s panhandle than originally planned. We were going to be in Palm Bay by last night but we extended our stay to see the Blue Angels’ last show of the season at Pensacola Naval Air Station. An added benefit of that decision was that we [...]
More about our stay in Lexington later, but now we are on the road again, heading for Baileyton, TN. We will spend just one night here and not make any side trips so we can get to Marietta by the weekend to spend some time with my son, his wife and daughter. Monday we’ll cut [...]
Ok, I’ve spent all afternoon and evening in Google Earth and on the Web, figuring out how to get to Princeton, New Jersey and from there to Palm Bay, Florida, with numerous stops in between. Here’s the results: This time, instead of using Google Earth to take a screenshot of the image, I saved my [...]
We’re on the final leg (or next to last one, anyway) of our current migratory path. This trip, since leaving St. Joseph around the first of November, has covered about 4,500 miles and 10 states. We’ll be back in St. Joe next week, after stopping in Grove, Oklahoma. That’s a good midpoint between my aunt [...]
