The shore at Sunshine Key Resort

February 20-21, 2012: Since I was unable to get us a spot at the state campgrounds for this one night, we rented a spot at a private resort. Our spot at Susnshine Key RV Resort was not very attractive. As a matter of fact, I forgot to document our site. They do have some wonderful [...]

Hobe Sound, FL to Key Largo, FL

February 18, 2012 | Key Largo, FL

Scenery on the drive

Since I was able to wrangle a few days availability from a state park on Key Largo, we headed south. Not too much to report about the drive except that driving on the overseas Highway always makes you feel as though you have arrived somewhere tropical.  We just keep reminding ourselves up the temperatures up [...]

The Loxahatchee river

February 13-18, 2012: Because we did not have advanced reservations we were only able to book a site for a few days at a time. This meant that we had to stay in no less than three campsites. This wasn’t too much of a big deal to us. Since there is no sewer hookups at [...]

West Palm Beach, FL to Hobe Sound, FL

February 13, 2012 | Hobe Sound, FL

After Winterfest we had about two weeks until we had somewhere to be. We also had no reservations. In an attempt to get as close to the ocean as possible without breaking the bank, I found Jonathan Dickinson State Park. It was close and they had openings so we headed there

February 10-13, 2012: We have never been to Winterfest or to Palm Beach International Raceway. As such we didn’t know what to expect as far as what camping facilities would be available. There are a few sites outside the track where dogs are permitted. These sites have electrical hookups, however they are $50/night. Pretty pricey, [...]

February 5-10, 2012: Sebring is not far from Dade City, and after stopping in Tampa to replenish our supplies we arrived at the track fairly early.

January 30 – February 1, 2012: It isn’t a very long drive from Daytona Beach so we arrived at the campground with much of the day remaining. We decided to go out for lunch and found Finn’s Beachside Pub in Flagler Beach. Even though it was very windy, we decided to eat on their roof [...]

Daytona Beach, FL to Beverly Beach, FL

After every race it seems that all we want is full hook-ups and some peace and quiet. So we always look for a full amenity campground not too far from the track. We found one on the water in Beverly Beach, so we headed that direction.
