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.

Beautiful Day


Mississippi's idea of a 4-way stop?
 It's so great to have all that nasty weather behind us.  It was a beautiful sunshiny 70 degree day today.  We drove around the area looking at a few other RV parks to see what they had to offer.  The nicest one we found was a casino RV park.  Of course, while we were there we had to go in and use the bathrooms.  Somehow a $1 bill jumped out of my wallet and entered a penny slot machine, so I HAD to play it.  It kept us entertained for almost 5 minutes before it vanished.

Nature trail thru the woods 5 years after Katrina.
The RV park office gave us a breakfast coupon for a local restaurant in town so we went to eat.  How hard is it to make breakfast?  Worst I've ever had.  What I liked most about that place was a sign I saw on the wall that said:  "They say age is all in the mind.  The problem is keeping it from creeping down into your body."

 After a stop at Walmart for groceries we went back to Buccaneer State Park.  They (used to) have a nice nature trail in the woods around the park.   They had lost 8,000 trees when Hurricane Katrina came thru in 2005.  It is beginning to restore itself, but it will be a long time before it's woodsy again.
