Hello from Savannah, Georgia. We finally got this show on the road !! Last week went by pretty quick, We got all organised to go and watch the shuttle take off and once again we woke up in the middle ofthe night to find they had cancelled it again until July sometime.Bugger !! Only thing was I had booked our Dodge in at Carmax in Orlando to get the key fixed on it under warranty at 8.30am, thought we would do it after watching the launch. so had to get up again about 6.30am to get up and away to be in Orlando by 8.30am. We had to buy a brake box for the Durango , they use them for towing over here. The trailer has brakes on it that get turned on by the truck, ... read more

I took a little trip up to Savannah GA for a good old St. Patty's day celebration. I will go ahead and say this was a beer/ liquor/ wallet damaging weekend that was a good time. I guess the only really bad thing about this trip was the temperature, it was cold the entire time. I was barely prepared with green long sleeved clothes, so i had to settle for wearing green long socks, suspenders, and whatever other item I picked up along the way. We arrived at a the nice hotel in old town, with one bed... we had 4 people per room. We got some good cuddling in over this weekend. I quickly put down a half bottle of Jameson and Meredith gave me my most valuable item of the weekend, a shot ... read more

Last night was lots of fun with lots of sleep to end it off with. I got up this morning, did the routine, and we headed for the venue. Craig called to tell us there was an accident on the freeway, so we’d need more time to take an alternate route. The accident, he later told us, was caused by a bug hitting a pickup. We all thought he was talking about an insect, but he meant a VW. It was super warm yesterday. Ok, it was like 54 yesterday, but much nicer than we’ve been having. Today, my system was shocked to find it a mere 27 degrees outside! But it was really sunny! Today’s venue is a gymatorium- you know, a gym with a stage in it. We were told that the local crew ... read more

Greetings from Savannah, Georgia! I spent the last day touring the northern parts of Florida. I started out in the western panhandle, went to Tallahassee, Florida State University, and then across central Florida to Jacksonville and Saint Augustine. For those of you in New Jersey, I hear its quite cold up there. Sorry, it is mid-70s here with a great breeze. So Saint Augustine is the oldest city in America. To be exact, its the oldest continuing city in America. To be more exact, it is the oldest European city in America! There were people living here long before the ships appeared on the horizon. Some people confuse Jamestown, Virginia as the oldest American settlement. It was actually the oldest English settlement. Saint Augustine did not become an English territory until the Treaty of Paris ended ... read more

So first and foremost, after I made the entry last night on this travel blog I decided to get some sleep. I didn't fall asleep for an hour or two (until Max was done watching TV and the lights were out). Right when I was about to fall asleep, like the brink of consciousness, my bed began to shake by my feet. It felt as if someone placed their two hands on the bed and was pushing it as if to wake me up. Oh man, I was soooooo scared! I tried to call Max's name, but I couldn't spit the words out---I seriously could not form audible words in my mouth. After about three tries I ended up yelling Max's name and waking him up, telling him about what happened. We ended up not falling ... read more
