Well at least as far north as Georgia. After spending a few days at my folks, we are driving north to my sister’s house. There is a little chill in the air and the leaves are beginning to turn. A big difference from Key West. We found a nice park to stop at for the [...]

We were bummed to be leaving the Key West area. I would have liked to stay for a month, but my sister is having a baby soon and I want to be around for his arrival. So we are headed back to Georgia. As we made our way north on the Overseas Highway we stopped [...]

The View in Paradise

October 22, 2011 | Key West, FL

Today’s activities included: sitting by the water, watching the RV get detailed, sitting by the water, grilling shrimp, sitting by the water, swimming, sitting by the water, grilling grouper, and finally we sat by the water. With a full schedule like that I should be dead tired, but I’m not. Maybe it’s the fresh ocean [...]

From MM37 to MM14

October 21, 2011 | ,

Everyplace in the keys is located by it’s mile marker on the Overseas Highway. We have gone from Bahia Honda State Park at MM37 to Bluewater Key RV Resort at MM14. Our original plan was to leave the Keys and make our way slowly up the Gulf coast towards my parent’s house. Our feeling was [...]

We were unable to stay in our spot at Bahia Honda (it was a long shot anyway), but they did move us to one of the spots that had been flooded. They drained the site and laid down more rocks. It was a water-front site, but it was closer to the bridge and that meant [...]

Hey Look! We’re Outside!

October 19, 2011 | Big Pine Key, FL

Well, the rain finally stopped for more than a few minutes. Oh Yeah! We put out our chairs and sat by the water. Now the only problem is we think they are going to make us give up our wonderful spot because people will start coming back. The only reason we were able to get [...]

Back at Bahia Honda

October 18, 2011 | ,

With much sadness we have left Geiger Key Marina RV Park & Smokehouse. Not just because it was a wonderful camping spot on the water, with full hookups, but because we had really hoped we could out wait the rain. We decided since we were on the move that we would go into Key West. [...]

A Bigger Break from the Rain

October 17, 2011 | ,

I wish I something other than the rain to blog about, but when you spend the day coped up inside a 23′ RV there really isn’t too much excitement. During the minutes when the rain let up, we were able to walk the dogs and grill up some dinner. We made Mahi Mahi Skewers, with [...]

A Few Moments of Sun

October 16, 2011 | Key West, FL

More truthfully, we had a few minutes of non-rain. It has been raining in Key West since we got here. At first I was keeping my chin up, but now it’s beginning to get kind of annoying. Unable to spend too much time out of doors, we turned on the telly and were horrified to [...]

Grilling between the Rain Drops

October 15, 2011 | ,

Our relaxing weekend in Key West had turned wet on us. It rained all day today. We have a wonderful Tiki shelter on our site, but it was so windy that the rain was coming at us sideways. Therefore, yesterday was not one of many activities. We watched Georgia beat Vandy (Go Dawgs!) and worked [...]
