About Us

Follow along with us on our travels with our motor home. Minnesota is our home, but we go south for the winter. Yes, we are Snowbirds. We love traveling and want to share our experiences with you. This will be our third time traveling south to avoid the cold Minnesota winters. Our travels began in late October with the first destination of Concord, New Hampshire, and New Haven, Connecticut, to visit family before heading south and will eventually get to Arizona before returning to Minnesota in April.

Moved

We went for another walk on the beach this morning.  The surf is still up although it is not a windy day.  Mostly seaweed is washing up on shore, but we did find this piece of plywood that looks like it must have been part of a boat.  If only it could talk!  Where did it come from?  What happened to the boat?  Is it debris from the tsunami in Japan?  We will never know.

Boat Part
There's a big old hotel here, the Hotel del Coronado.  We wanted to go inside and look around but when we discovered we had to pay $16 for Visitor Parking we changed our mind.  Supposedly it is haunted.  Also, Orville Redenbacher, the popcorn king, lived at the Hotel del Coronado from 1976 to 1995.  There may be a way to walk in for free, but we didn't take the time to look for it.  Maybe later.

Hotel del Coronado
Being on the beach was nice, but we wanted to save some money.  The beach was $33/night to dry camp.  We found a nice RV park 10 north of here, not on the beach, but is only $25/night with our Passport America half price discount and we have full hookups.
