Foot Prints in the Sand
About 2.5 years ago, I took my boots off and started walking in the sand on the southeast shores of Lake Superior, and I found it to be enjoyable. After I look back on my foot prints, I notice how true they are to life. As I think back to my parents’ house, my sister…

Journal Entry
The convention was over today at 12:00. After Lunch, I went through the Tampa Bay History Center. Since it feels like we are just dumped into the city, it is like we do not know what in this area. By going through the center, I have a much better idea on what this area is…

Journal Entry
It has been really hot here in Wisconsin this summer, and I started looking for a cool place for a few days. On Sunday, I took the train to Chicago and walk the lake shore. It was cooler, but not all that cooler. Last week I started looking for state campgrounds along Lake Michigan, but…

Journal Entry – Snowbird – Highway Bridges
Today, I drove from the southeast side of New Orleans to Grand Isle, Louisiana, and I swear that fifty percent of the highway was on bridges. That might be an over exaggeration, but it felt like during my trip was 125 miles. In New Orleans, a significant number of interstate miles are elevated above the…

Journal Entry – Snowbird – Twentieth Day
Today I played bridge engineer. I know it is kind of my passion. But to start with, my trailer is in Baton Rouge being serviced. I feel that these RV service centers must have a racket going on. I took the trailer in with a few concerns, but then they have to tell me that…

Journal Entry – Snowbird – Fourteenth Day
Today was a frustrating day. I first go to the Vicksburg Visitors Center, and I find that it is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. I am finding that the videos in visitor center really sent the mood for the tour in these parks and they are educational giving everyone something to look for in the…
