    Living our Dream, Hitting the Road in our Airstream!

    We’d dreamed of hitting the road in an Airstream for years. Sometimes we’d put the dream on the shelf as impractical. Then we’d watch a few more Youtube videos or read more blog posts, and we’d find ourselves driving by the local Airstream dealer just to check what’s on the lot. We reached a point […]

  • Our New RV Rig

    How we found our perfect RV rig. Buying our new RV rig was kind of like answering the question, “Which came first, the chicken or the egg?” When you’re buying a new RV rig or upgrading your current rig you need to match the two biggest parts — your tow vehicle and your trailer. If […]

  • Cara Mia!

    The Airstream of our Dreams Everyone’s path to the perfect RV is different. Here’s how we came to own Cara Mia, the Airstream of our dreams. In late 2020, we bought a teardrop camper we named Tibby and had a great time in her over the next few months. It didn’t take too long before […]

    Why We Got a nüCamp TAB 400 Boondock

    I dreamed of touring with a teardrop trailer…

    I actually planned out a route that would take me through the US. It felt like a wonderful plan and I was looking forward to the day that I could make it happen. I didn’t know about the nüCamp TAB 400…

  • Brooks Addiction Walker Shoes

    I love my Brooks Addiction Walker shoes. I started with Brooks running shoes nearly 20 years ago.

    Last year, I had concerns about the possibility of our trip to Europe being ruined

    Better Than Sex Dessert Restaurant

    I ran across an interesting dessert-and-drinks restaurant in Orlando a couple of weeks ago while roaming the internet. It’s called Better Than Sex Dessert Restaurant! We made reservations for that Friday night. That Friday afternoon, I received a text asking me to confirm… Please confirm your reservation for Better Than Sex Orlando tonight by texting […]

  • Florida Christmas 2019

    Florida Christmas 2019

    It was a sunny Christmas day of 2019 in Central Florida after several days of cloudy, rainy weather. We took a walk in the morning sunshine around our neighborhood. This video was all shot with the DJI Osmo Pocket in 4k D-Cinelike using a PolarPro ND16 filter. Most shots were at 30 fps, the swinging […]

  • Winter Park Farmers’ Market – Winter Park, FL

    Winter Park Farmers’ Market – Winter Park, FL

    One of our favorite places to spend a romantic Saturday morning is the Winter Park Farmers’ Market. It’s a positively wonderful way to start the weekend. Last Saturday morning, we packed up our market basket and a couple of hats and headed out. However, we do aim for getting there before 10 o’clock as it […]

  • Exploring the Medici at the Galleria and Uffizi

    Exploring the Medici at the Galleria and Uffizi

    We were up bright and early this morning for another The Tour Guy tour, this time for exploring the Medici at the Galleria and Uffizi. If we were lucky, we’d find some gelato too! I was a bit apprehensive leading up to this, given our exhaustion level after the Venice tour. I needn’t have worried. […]

  • Delightful Train Ride to Florence

    Delightful Train Ride to Florence

    Today we enjoyed a delightful train ride to Florence. It was even better than we’d imagined. However, we’ve been so busy, and since they say that a picture is worth a thousand words, I will just post photos with captions. Trenitalia turned out to be a very pleasant surprise. Decades-old memories of crowded standing-room-only Italian […]
