Our History

My photo
Ohio, United States
Having recently retired we are fulfilling our long time dream. We began our camping life with a tent in 1969 adjusting as each of our three sons arrived over the years and gradually progressed to a 32' Class A in 2007. Even after our sons became too busy with their own interests, we continued dreaming over the years. The Louisville, KY 2003 Great North American RV Rally and the book "Movin' On" convinced us that a motorhome after retirement was really for us! In 2007 we sold our home and disposed of most of our belongings and awaited the wife's retirement on February 1, 2008. We were out in our first motorhome ten times in our first summer in 2007, with our grandson joining us eight of those ten times. Since he must stay behind with his mom and dad to continue school, we told him he can join us on vacations (by car or plane) anywhere we are as we travel the US. Imagine the history lessons he could acquire! However, Mom and Dad don't look at it that way, especially the flying. Fortunately we don't miss work one bit!! We just miss the friends there. We have many hobbies to keep us busy when we decide to sit still for a day. Hope to see you on the road.

ARRIVED AT MR Z 's NEAR LEXINGTON, SC and MOVED ON INTO FLORIDA

Thursday, October 17th we arrived and settled in at Mr. Z's RV Park.
Friend, Sandy and I went thrift shopping the next day around Lexington and Columbia, SC. I found a few things, especially Christmas decorating things for crafts to send back to Lynn in Ohio.  Lynn, enjoy that extra work!!
We went to Bible Study on Wednesday and enjoyed the new teacher.  The pastor, Jack, and his wife, Vicky, were away for a family funeral.  So we missed seeing them.
But our friends, Mary and Johnny just got back from seminar/vacation, so we enjoyed seeing them!
Gary got to spend time with Sandy's husband, Mike while Sandy and I scrap booked.  It was good time, beneficial to both.  And Sandy fixed dinner for us one evening.

October 24th,  we asked Sandy, Mike, Mary and Johnny to join us at Shealy's southern cooking buffet!
Johnny, Mike, Mary and Sandy
That was the preferred place for celebrating our 55th Anniversary according to Gary!! 

Mary and Johnny treated us!!  Thank you so much!!  It was awesome! Best Anniversary gift!!

Our next stop was one night at Walk About RV Park near Brunswick, GA.


Guess the chickens thought it was their walk about park also!
Richard, we thought you would enjoy this!

Our travels continued on the next day to Sumter Oaks RV Park in southern Bushnell, FL. We will be here for six days and we went to a Baptist church in Center Hill yesterday to be able to see friends, Lee and wife, Karen while here.  Lee was our first Sunday School teacher here in Bushnell in 2008.  Gary keeps in contact with him and they have retired recently and Lee is now an ordained minister.

When going to Walmart for velcro this morning, Gary drove through Blueberry RV Park to see if our friend from Illinois is down here yet.  He said it did not look like it.  I have emailed her and our other friends from Niagara Falls in Canada, who we met here a few years back.  Hope they get back to us about their winter plans.  Not sure what else we might do around here.  But check back and see.
Take care and God Bless you all.
