Artwork Pickup Trip Jun 18 - 20

Took in Harper's Ferry ( Senior Pass = Free ) Saw John Brown's Fort (he is actually an ancestor of mine) We could have taken a shuttle bus, but we walked the three miles round trip instead. Drex thought it was just a little warm and fixed it for himself.

West Virginia Trip Jun 3 - 7

Finally tried the microwave/convection oven to make some pizza in the Appalachian Mountains.

Shenandoah National Park

Great Dismal Swamp Trip May 4-7

Well the dog was exhausted, but we had a great time in the Great Dismal Swamp. We canoed at Merchant Mill Pond in North Carolina, as we were deciding whether or not to turn around, the clouds darkened. Even the alligators noticed, so we headed back, got back to the RV just as it started to rain. Nothing like sitting under the awning, watching the rain fall with a nice glass of grape juice ( no alcohol allowed ;o)
— at Merchants Millpond State Park.

Finally got my campfire!

Okefenokee Swamp, GA

Georgia, deep into the Okefenokee swamp. About as remote as you would want to get. Only sixty miles to the nearest grocery store.

Anastasia Island, FL

Another day, another boardwalk picture. This time on Anastasia Island in Florida. Today we are visiting the Thibodeau clan ...

Beef on the barbie

Hunting Island State Park, SC

We are in sun! And warm! And beach! And happy! North Carolina - no alcohol, no joy ... South Carolina, alcohol, fireworks...no problem. All we need now is a change of address card!

OBX Trip Oct 21-25

Our first night on our "land yacht" aptly enough at "First Landing State Park" in Virginia Beach.

 Went to the Wright brothers site in Kitty Hawk. Wow a 120 ft flight is pretty short.

Off the outer banks with a two hour ferry ride into the back country of North Carolina

Today we went to Wilson, NC to check out the preparations for the Volli Simpson whirligig park. Huge 60' high whirligigs
