Florida’s Gulf Islands National Seashore

April 4, 2020 July 7, 2020Uncategorized 0

Luckily, Bruce reserved a spot at Fort Pickens at the Gulf Islands National Seashore 6 months ahead. February is very busy and nearly impossible to find an RV campsite on short notice.

Everglades and Biscayne National Parks

April 21, 2019 April 22, 2019National Parks, Reviews, Travel, Uncategorized 0

A consolation for leaving the Keys behind April 8th is knowing we are coming back next year. As usual, moving is bittersweet. I am sad to leave one place and happy to experience the next place. This time it’s The Everglades a beautifully diverse place with lots of wildlife.

April 1, 2019 April 1, 2019Reviews, Travel, Uncategorized 0

March 11, 2019 March 11, 2019National Parks, Reviews, Travel, Uncategorized 0

My imagination told me the Gulf Coast would provide crystal blue water, warm sunny weather and gorgeous white sand beaches.  It was mostly wrong until we got to Florida. Each of four stops are covered here: 1. Galveston Island State Park – Galveston, Texas Once we were on Galveston Island,…
