Lady Liberty
Enlightening the World There are several things on my bucket list while visiting the northeast; to see some Maine Lighthouses and to visit the Statue of Liberty. Today, I’m checking one off the list. I book a charter with Statue citycruises to tour Statue of Liberty. They offer two cruise options: one leaving from Liberty State Park in New Jersey and the other leaving from Battery Park in…

Take a ride on the Reading
All Aboard to Steamtown While summering in the Poconos, The urge to travel is reaching fever pitch. But where to go? New York and Philly are about equal distance, but fighting the COVID crazed crowds just doesn’t appeal to me. On the heels of a newly eletect president who commonly extols the virtues of his blue collar roots in Scranton, the northeastern Pennsylvania town of 80,000 is jumping…

A Botanical Experience Good Morning Dr. BBQ
As my winter pilgrimage to the Tampa Bay / St. Pete area winds down, I wonder what did I do here for the past 2 months. There are so many things left on my list.
I see a spot on a local TV station highlighting a local celebrity chef known as Dr. BBQ. He offers some unique items beyond the traditional BBQ fare. I am intrigued by his pork rind nachos…

Unique Animal Encounters - Tampa Bay
Unique Animal Encounters – Tampa Bay
Floating Horses and Flying Dolphins
When arriving in any new city, animal attractions, unusual events, and photo opportunities are my initial draw. An awesome animal encounter that would have certainly slipped under my radar had it not been an exceedingly thoughtful Valentine’s day gift was the C Ponies Adventure in Tampa, FL.

Kumquat Festival -Dade City, Florida
Kumquat Festival -Dade City, Florida
It’s to pie for
Florida seems to have a never-ending supply of winter festivals and I have attended and written about many The Manatee Festival, Brooksville Pow Wow, Gasparilla, and others.
When I hear an advertisement for the Kumquat Festival, it piques my interest. Mainly because I ask myself, “What the heck is a kumquat?” When they announce kumquat pie and kumquat ice cream will be…

Georgia Peaches, Pecans, and Prisons
If you add the “rural” designation to about anything I’ll probably like it. Rural Georgia is no exception. I decide to break up my Florida pilgrimage a little and spend a few days south of Atlanta in the Upper Coastal Plains region of Georgia. I’m stationed in Elko, GA in a campground that I have visited before. On a previous trip, I sought out the Little Grand Canyonsome 80 miles west of…

Air Force vs Navy Football – Annapolis, Maryland
Here We Go into the Wild Blue Yonder
After a recent trip to the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, I adopt the Air Force Falcons as my new football team. Just so happens my beloved Falcons are invading the Navy Midshipmen, my second recently adopted favorite team. I have no strong affiliation to either program, as I did not serve in the military, but I absolutely love what these two proud…

Parrot Mountain - Pigeon Forge
Parrot Mountain – Pigeon Forge
Parrot Mountain, Pigeon Forge
It has been a while since I’ve been able to add to this blog. Primarily due to a 9 month long camper warranty repair ordeal. To fully document the horror story of an unscrupulous RV dealer, and a manufacturer who is either totally inept or just down right dishonest would consume this entire site.
However, the end result is a newer better travel trailer. For its…

St. George Island, Florida I can think of no better way to celebrate the changing to Daylight Savings Time than to take some photos of a tremendous sunset over Apalachiacola Bay from St. George Island.

A Christmas Story House - Cleveland, OH
A Christmas Story House – Cleveland, OH
Every year I look forward to the marathon showing of the 1983 classic, A Christmas Story. Though set in the ’40s, watching the exploits of Ralphie and his quest for a Red Ryder BB gun reminds me of snippets of my childhood. I received my Red Ryder when I was about 10. I recall shooting it for the first time under the back porch light. The sun hasn’t even risen on a chilly Christmas morning, yet I…

Kentucky Horse Park - Lexington, KY
Kentucky Horse Park – Lexington, KY
It is all too easy for someone as impatient and restless as I to overlook some of the best things our country has to offer that are right under my nose. The Kentucky Horse Park would certainly fall into this category. I round out the 2018 travel season for a couple of weeks at the Horse Parks’ campground.
There have been horses on this ground for more than 200 years.
In 1777, Patrick Henry,…

“Load em Up”
“Hop on In!”

“Good Luck Champs!”
The official Soapbox Derby race starter announces as he pulls back on the release bar.
They’re Off
Sami and Kayla, two tween-aged girls, along with their soapbox derby cars, begin inching away from the starting post, building up speed as they head down the nearly 1/4 mile track toward the finish line. Dads look on from atop…

Punxsutawney, PA
I love when a town has a mascot, a theme, a point of pride, and doesn’t take itself to seriously. Like Roswell, NM and its aliens, catfish in Belzoni, MS, or manatees in Crystal River, Punxsutawney, PA is that kind of town. Embracing the time-honored tradition of using a groundhogs’ prognostication of the coming of spring. The town is all about the groundhog as witnessed by the dozens of…
