We are a couple traveling in a 34" Holiday Vacationer Motor Home. Wes is a GE pensioner who still consults with the company. Joanne is a Public Relations specialist who runs her own "boutique" agency. This is the sixth year that we have been keeping a travel blog. In the winter, we travel to and through Florida. We plan our route to include places of interest going to and fro and have included Williamsburg, Baltimore, Washinton DC, St. Augustine, Savannah, Charlestown, Myrtle Beach, Florida's Pan Handle, New Orleans, Atlanta, Memphis, Nashville, Lexington, Pittsburgh and Gettysburg. Our recent travels close to home have included an RV tour to Herkimer (home of the Herkimer Diamond Mines), Lechworth State Park (NY Fingerlakes Region), and Gettysburg. We have also traveled to New York City and Montreal several times during the past few years. A highlight was the June Jazz Fest in Montreal a few years back. Skiing and visiting family in Vermont and on Long Island, an annual boat camping trip on the islands of Lake George. We've visited Nevis in the West Indies several times; the most recent being in January 2012 with a side trip to Canouan in the Grenadine Islands. We've also visited Ireland, Tuscany, Paris, Normandy, and Germany. Our latest trips to Europe were two river boat cruise on the fabulous Uniworld line. The trip from Paris to Normandy in Sept/Oct. 09 was exceptional. The trip on the Rhine and the Main from Cologne to Prague was interrupted due to illness. We had travel insurance and have learned mucho about how to (or not) recoup losses when the flight involves using frequent flier mileage incentives. We used Empress Travel on Upper Union St., Schenectady. Our RV - nicknamed "The Schooner" is located at Mohawk Marine in Alplaus, Schenectady County, NY on the banks of the beautiful Mohawk River in the summertime where it serves as my office. Winter travel to Florida typically has started with a road trip in the fall and ends with a trip home via a different route at Easter. We fly back and forth a few times during the winter; as we both still have work related responsibilities and like to take at least one ski day at Killington or Pico with our grandchildren. Thanks to technology, Joanne can service her clients while on the road; and Wes has morning conference calls with his GE clients. The RV has served as a fully equipped office since April 2005. The recent addition of a little Jeep, nick named "The Dingy" has made our RV trips even more fun. It connects to a tow bar called a Blue Ox, and trails right along behind us. One caution we observe is "don't back up!" You can find Joanne McMahon DeVoe and Wes DeVoe on Facebook!
