London Bridge

We stopped by the London Bridge in Lake Havasu, on the way from Pahrump to Yuma. It was rainy and cool, but a nice pause in our trip south. The weather experience made it really feel like we were in England. We thought of our friends Colin and Evelyn, back in Inverness, FL, who are […]

Cycling Long Beach around the Queen Mary

25th Anniversary

How do you like our bike jerseys? I bought Cheryl her nice new “Wedding Gown” and my “Tux” for this special occasion – our 25th! We were married on the Queen Mary and just had to come back to celebrate our 25th there. What a great ship. I even took my Beautiful Bride to a […]

Seabreeze & Queen Mary

MCRD San Diego 50 years later

We drove to MCRD yesterday from El Centro, where we are staying. 50 years ago when I went through the main gate I thought I went to Hell, but I was in Marine Corps Boot Camp. Only a few minutes after arriving I was standing on yellow foot prints painted on the deck. The next […]

Shadow 14 today

Today Shadow had her 14th birthday ( 98 in dog years ) and no, she is not spoiled. Cheryl did make her special liver cookies. More pics later.

Chuck contemplates a year on the road

On 15 Aug 2008 we departed FL to begin our Full-Time RV experience on the road. After 19,000+ miles we have finally reached the Pacific Ocean (we took some short cuts on the way ). Shadow celebrated our 1st anniversary on the road by playing in the Pacific Ocean (see her post below) and we all visited […]

First Year on the Road Today!

Today marked our 1st year on the road. We departed our home in FL on 15 Aug 2008 and celebrated our 365th day on the road here in Klamath, CA. Man, did this year go by fast! Cheryl is working on a small slide show just to show a fraction of some of the places […]
