How Have We Never Visited Solomon’s Castle?!
We grew up in Florida, and roadside attractions were a standard part of 80’s kid childhood. But, somehow, we never made it to Solomon’s Castle…until this year!

A Playful Afternoon at the Wildlife Refuge
We love animals, but with limited space, there are only so many we can house, so we try to support rescues and refuges in our travels.
Hardee County has a great little refuge worth a visit! If you are looking to make a day of it, or find treats, we’ve got some suggestions for that, too!

Birding and Boat Life on the Treasure Coast

Can a Decluttered Life Exist in an RV?
Clutter builds fast in any lifestyle, but we see it fast in RV life. Walk through some of the questions we’ve learned to ask ourselves as we try to keep our home peaceful and our rig towable! (And if you aren’t an RVer, these can still help you!)

Starting the Year with a Focus on Community
One of our goals this year is to focus more on community–people to see, rather than places.
We kicked off January with that focus by attending a meet up the same week as the RV show.What we lack in photos, we more than make up for in memories!

A Simple Solution From a Full-Time Traveler
One of several reasons we started our full-time travel life was to find a place that Sonya’s allergies and asthma weren’t so bad.
While we haven’t found that perfect location yet, we have found a simple solution for immune boosting as we travel, and wanted to share that with you! -

Key Largo – This Is Why We Rushed Across the Country!
We planned this trip with friends a year out–unheard of for us!
This is why we rushed across the country, though, and it was worth it.
A week of island life, surrounded by friends and nature was just what we needed.
We’ve got park and campground details, as well as how we spent our week.
