We spent a few days at wonderful friends camped on their driveway. It was great to catch up. They took us out on Lake Norman in their boat with friends we both know from Columbus. Mike was also introduced to pickleball. He was feeling it the next day. Lois was able to have dinner with a dear friend that lives in Charlotte while we were there as well. As always a fun time in the Charlotte, NC area. Such a beautiful place!... read more

We enjoyed 3 days in historic Savannah. Located along the Savannah River it is the largest port in Georgia. This charming southern city offers art, architecture, delicious cuisine, trendy boutiques, haunted stories, and lush greenspaces all under a veil of Spanish moss. We parked the Jeep and walked all over the city, strolling through many of the neighborhood squares. We jumped back in Mazie and headed to Bonaventure Cemetery. This is a rural cemetery on a bluff of the Wilmington River, east of Savannah. It is the largest of the city's municipal cemeteries, containing nearly 160 acres. Last we headed to Wormsloe Historic Site. The oak avenue of the property is lined with over 400 live oaks and is often photographed and included in motion pictures. We enjoyed the history museum in the visitor center and ... read more

Our campground in this area was the Leon County Parks and Recreation Coe Landing on Lake Talquin. We drove into Tallahassee and rode about 10 miles of the Tallahassee-St Marks Historical Railroad State Trail. We had hoped to ride all the way to St. Marks, but Mike's e-bike motor was not working. The we drove by the capital building (3rd tallest capital building in the US) and onto the Florida State University campus- beautiful! The last stop was the Alfred B Maclay Gardens State Park. It is a day use park with beautiful grounds. The ornamental gardens were first planted in 1923 by Alfred B and Louise Maclay after they purchased the property for their winter home. We enjoyed walking through the gardens and listening to the audio at each station. The gardens included a beautiful ... read more

We stayed at Sun Outdoors RV Resort in Ponchatoula, LA as our home base to explore New Orleans. The resort has many amenities-pickleball courts, 18 hole Put-Put course, pool, and lazy river to name a few. We did not head into the French Quarter, as most people do when in New Orleans. We went to Mardi Gras World to get an up-close look at some of the floats and props used in New Orleans parades. Loved the tour and seeing the production side of this part of New Orleans. Then we took a 2-hour walking tour of the Garden District. Our guide, Sean, was very knowledgeable about the area and some of the residents-past and present of the homes.... read more

We spent a night in Stockton, TX on our way to San Antonio, TX. We glamped at Alsatian RV Resort in Castroville. We learned about a self-guided walking tour of the town from our RV neighbor. We ventured out one day and did the tour. The tour takes you past many historic Alsatian style homes and buildings. While in San Antonio we explored the Riverwalk, the Alamo, Market Square, San Jose Mission, Pearl district, Castroville, and Fiesta San Antonio. We loved all the history and culture that are part of the San Antonio area! We anticipate returning for another visit in the future, still so much to see and do!... read more
