Looks like it took me as long to post about Florida as it did to explore Florida. There was so much that we did. While the state in and of itself is interesting, it’s not a place I would settle down. If I were a billionaire, I would own some …
Florida City, Aptly named as it is the southernmost city on the peninsula of Florida. Beautiful weather and amazing rain storms. We found a small RV park that was reasonably priced (the only one in the area for under $50 a night). With the cost of pulling the RV …
We spent almost a month in Florida waiting for it to warm up enough to travel north without running into too many freezes. We took the time to drive both the gulf and the Atlantic coasts and all the way down to the keys. We even decided to skip the …

I’m going to say up front that there will be more written about Dallas, Infact this post is a bit on the raw side, meaning that there will be mistakes. In debating on posting this, ultimately the goal is to have a semi live and up-to-date posting. There will be …
