Loving our beach vacation at Port St. Joe Beach, Florida. Port St. Joe, Florida is a small town located on the Gulf of Mexico.

RV Lessons Learned – Florida to Texas – Day 2
Our first day on the road had lots of RV lessons learned. We’d made it to our site at the Madison RV & Golf Resort late, but okay. After a quick dinner, we went to bed early and dropped right off to sleep, tired but pleased with getting through the day. We woke up cold…
RV Lessons Learned – Florida to Texas – Day 1
After the RV lessons learned from the previous day’s experiences loading our rig, we were finally hitting the road! The RV Garmin was programmed for each night’s stop, the gas tank was full, and we’d each hit the restroom one last time. RV Lesson: the map is not the territory The day’s goal was the…
How Our First Airstream-only RV Park Spoiled Us
Virginia Highland Haven, a Blue Ridge Escape In hindsight, it seems strange that we didn’t try this before. We love everything about Airstream trailers.

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…
Hotel Novecento, Venice, Italy
I was drawn to the Hotel Novecento by the photos of its beautiful rooms when I searched online for lodging in Venice, Italy. While we stayed there, I was impressed by their attentive but unobtrusive service. The Italian Air Traffic Controllers called a strike the day that we were to arrive in Venice. Once our…
