Back in Jax!

Back in Jax!

And now we’re back in Jacksonville for a few months. We have our RV warranty service tomorrow - the list seems long but nothing has kept us from continuing on our trip for 6.5 months so I’m grateful for that! And I’m grateful for getting to see these faces again right...

Visiting with Michele and Greg (and Zeus!)

Visiting with Michele and Greg (and Zeus!)

My good friend from college, Michele, lives in Cumming, Georgia on Lake Lanier. We live so close but life keeps everyone busy so we haven’t spent nearly as much time together as we should have all of these years. Nonetheless, Fred and I spent a week visiting with...

Who’s Herding Who?

We made a quick stopover at Kim’s house in Commerce, Georgia. Thanks to Kim and her  mom for letting us hang out ! Fred pretended like he knew how to herd ducks…. And the ducks may have turned the tables on him! 🤣  

Visiting with Annette and Kat

Visiting with Annette and Kat

I got to spend a few days visiting with Annette and Kat in Landrum, SC. The weather wasn’t particularly cooperative (it rained a lot) but we did manage to get in a hike and swim. Annette cooked a bunch of really good food! She was much happier than the picture...

Charleston, SC

Charleston, SC

Fred and I wen to visit our friends in the Low Country. We stayed with our friends Karen and Ron on Isle of Palms and we attended the Low Country Dog Agility Trial. I’ve been to a lot of LCDA trials dating back to 2002 and it’s always fun to be there. Fred had a...

Greenville and Travelers Rest, SC

Greenville and Travelers Rest, SC

Fred and I spent a week in Travelers Rest, SC working and touristing. The first afternoon we spent a couple of hours in Falls Park on the Reedy River in Greenville, SC. It’s a really nice, well maintained park and trail that follows the Reedy River in Greenville. We...

Swannanoa, NC – East Asheville KOA

Swannanoa, NC – East Asheville KOA

Another campground stopover for work. This is the first campground where we got a lakeside campsite. Fred did swim in the lake briefly. There was also a river (the Swannanoa River) running through the campground - Fred swam here too.  It turned out that another...

Waynesville, NC

Waynesville, NC

Fred and I spent a few days at a house in Waynesville, NC with Cindy and Ryan and 4 dogs. We had lots of fun.  Fred reunited with his friend Jason, and made a new friend in Halley. We visited the little town of Waynesville and walked around a bit before dinner. Cindy...

Mebane, NC – Jones Station RV Park

I made a 3-day stopover in Mebane, NC @ the Jones Station RV Park. I picked this spot because it was close to a friend’s home with whom I was going to travel at the end of the 3 days. While I never left the campground, it was pretty nice. Very well maintained, nice...

Virginia Beach – part 3 – Sunrise at the beach!

Virginia Beach – part 3 – Sunrise at the beach!

One of my absolute favorite things is sunrise over the water (preferably at the beach). I got up pretty early one day to get Fred walked and fed, and left on my bike for the beach at 6:15 AM for 6:42 sunrise. I arrived in time. Here are some of my favorite pictures...
