Corkscrew Swamp (Part 2)

With the humidity and heat in the swamp in February, there is no doubt that I would NOT visit in the summer to see the ghost orchid bloom. Especially since the orchids are high up in the trees.

May was a busy time. Mom decided to sell her house and my dear Poppy cat and I were hard at work packing. For house showings, Poppy and I went out in the RV. I thought she would hate it, but Poppy seemed to enjoy it! ...

Glendora and the Emmett Till Historic Intrepid Center - 02JAN2025

Reposting this, as 25JUL would have been Emmett Till's birthday. When I think of him, I can see his boyish photo. I can also see the model of what was done to his face by his torturers. People that did not see him as ...

Big Cypress - 26JAN2025

I searched for Reservation campgrounds online and found the Big Cypress RV Resort on the Seminole Nation. Work was quite busy, so I decided to plug in and stay for a bit.

Solomon's Castle - 26JAN2025

People that I met at the last harvest host recommended Solomon's Castle, so I drove on down to Ona. What a sight and story! Photos are only allowed from the exterior. If you're in the area, I recommend a visit. The t...

Rosado Ranch and Bees - 24JAN2025

I drove through Tampa and onto Rosado Ranch (rosadoranch.org). The owners mentioned in Harvest Hosts that it's easy to miss their drive, thankfully there were Canadian RVers taking a stroll who pointed me in the correct...

Pacific Ocean - 19JUL2024

Kellye and I drove to Seaside, Oregon, to visit the ocean. They had RV friendly parking, but this town does not allow sleeping in vehicles anywhere. Get outta here you van lifers! The beach had a lot of sand dollars. ...
