May 15 - Fort De Soto bike day

I think we are all getting used to the temperatures and humidity here. The air conditioner in the RV is getting a real workout. Average of 29-30 degrees during the day and the nights only to about 22 or 23....but when you are on holidays ....it's wonderful weather.

Today we did about 35 km on the bikes, Lu was a champion. We bought a cooling pad for the bike trailer just to help out a bit.

Rode out to Fort De Soto State Park. Paved bike path most of the way....a few km of  sidewalks ....I think with 2 wheels on the bike and 2 big wheels on the bike trailer ....I am pretty sure I ran over a few little 🦎.  Ug



It was pretty warm, gotta love the e-bikes...there is no way we would have done this with regular bikes with these temperatures.

All the beaches are pretty busy here, filled with umbrellas and kids toys and fishing rods.


And beautiful beachfront homes! And boats....oh so many boats here!


Went back to the campsite...Lu gained a new skill in Florida...tree climbing to chase the squirrels! She is obsessed with them.... and they love to taunt her!!!

Cheers...the owls are hooting in the trees across the stream again...love to hear them...they are so relaxing to listen to. 🌙

Left South Dakota this morning, through a part of Wyoming and into Montana. The scenery in this area is really gorgeous.  But before long the weather changed...storms up ahead and apparently through the night in Bozeman. Free night at the Walmart with about another 30  or so RV/camper vans......hoping for a quiet night...cold here tonight....used the furnace for the first time in a very long time on this trip...brrrr

Long time coming....

 It's been a very very long 2 years waiting...patiently waiting.....for things to return to normal... We were set to embark on this same holiday in March 2020 when Covid changed everything for everyone. Now 2 years later, our travel furbaby has changed. We lost our beloved Gracie before we could enjoy another big trip with her.  She was an amazing traveller and we were so fortunate to have been able to make many memories with her over the 14 years of RV adventures! We loved every minute of it and miss her dearly. And then along came Lucy Lu. Oh the adventures she will have!

June 10 - Lazy day

Image
Today was a lazy day. As no cell service and wifi at the campground, I needed some down time to book some stuff. Found a great dog park and Lu made a new little friend... Like little....8 week old little pitti.... They had a great time and then back into town. Just like most towns outside of a National Park...there's a bear thing going on. We didn't stay long....little walking...late lunch and back to the trailer. George hitting the enormous candy store....$22.00 later.....omg Second night of firefly watching was even better than the first. We saw some Blue Ghost fireflies....the males stay lit for up to a minute and glow a soft blue colour...there are not many in this area as they are mostly in the Asheville forests so I was super excited to see them. On our way back I had a firefly on my hand for the longest time....he just kept walking and blinking and walking....💗 I never like to say that I won't see them again here in th...
