10/31/15 - Happy Halloween to one & all

10/31/15 - Happy Halloween!🎃

Today we got all set up in our motorhome to enjoy our new home for the season. Currently, we are sitting outside enjoying the beautiful evening!

I have attached some pictures of our site & across the street looking at the pool area. Needless to say we are early for the season because the campground is not really busy yet which is really nice. 

Beautiful palm trees! 

Hope you enjoyed the pics. 

10/30/15 - Arrived in Florida.

10/30/15 - We made it to Florida with no  problems. We are all settled in to our campground home for the next 6 months. 

It was I the 80's today & we keep thinking that it is summer instead of fall. 

Bees & bugs are out fown here and tons of traffic.

Happy Halloween to everyone!🎃

10/29/15 - Thursday - Brunswick, GA

10/29/15 - Today was a travel day again.   We spent the night at a Flying J truck stop. This was quite an adventure. This place was one of the busiest place we have ever seen. 

The parking lot was totally full of trucks & some motorhomes. There were so many trucks loaded down with new cars it was like being at a dealership. Tons of activity all night long. My choice would still be Walmart because it is quieter than Flying J. 

20/28/15 - North Carolina to South of the Border South Carolina

Today was a driving day again through the rain. We left North Carolina and drove all day & reached South of the Border in South Carolina. 

8:10 pm - We just had a wild rain storm with thunder, lightening and we think hail. 

I Have attached some pictures from the South of the Border. We are staying in our first campground of this trip entitled Camp Pedro. 

Tomorrow we will drive through South Carolina & hopefully reach Georgia. 

Carpie with his new friend. 

My turn too!  

South of the Border just over the line from North Carolina. 

 

Here is me with a giant giraffe!  

Crazy large statues. 

Carpie from atop a walking bridge that goes over the highway. 

Here is the bridge that I mentioned in previous picture. 

Beautiful clouds as the sun sets over South of the Border, South Carolina. 

Enjoy!

2015/2016 Travels to & Around Florida

10/25/15 - Left home today at 8:45 am headed South. 

We made it to Willes Barre, Pennsylvania.    This was our first Walmart stay of the year. Our accommodations were great & it was a nice quiet "campground" if you will. No electric, no hook-ups, but everything was great. Just what we needed after a long day of driving. 

10/26/15 - We took to the road a little late, but we needed the rest. We ended up in Hagerstown, Maryland. Once again at a Walmart. We got off the road early so that we could have first dibs on the overnight parking accomdations. This was an adventure. Hellions driving like race car drivers going through the parking lot. After dark they must have gone home so all was fine. 

We received a knock on our door from a man from Montreal asking if folks were able to stay overnight in the parking lot. As if we were the manager of the store. This was due to the signs that were posted around the parking lot saying No Overnight Parking.  I told him that I had called ahead of time & Walmart said we could stay in the parking lot overnight. 

Campers always help out other campers.   It is like an unwritten rule. We stick together. 

10/27/15 - On the road again, heading south. We began on Rt 81 & made our way over to Rt 95.  Traffic was horrible outside of Washington DC. Now we are  

In Emporia, VA in yet another Walmart parking lot. This is very busy with truckers & motorhomes. Glad we got here early for a good spot. All settled in for the night. Very rainy & dark. Early to bed for us!  

Our excitement in life these days is finding a good spot in the Walmart parking lots before they get filled up!!!

6/21/15 - Home at Last From A Wonderful Dream Come True

6/21/15 - We arrived home today after a wonderful dream come true. Both Carp & I have mixed emotions about our home coming. We both are happy to be home so that can see our families & friends, however, we are sad that this trip has ended. This is not to say that we are done with our travels.  

Carp was saying today that he will be sitting down over the weekend to see where we can go next! 

We live in such a Beautiful country with so many natural beauties throughout the entire country:  Mountains; waterfalls; oceans; rivers; animals; birds and fellow man. 

We had the pleasure of meeting so many people over the past seven months. 

Some who will be friends forever & others as casual aquaintances.  

Words cannot express the deep feelings we both experenced throughout our trip seeing so many beautiful things. We look forward to our next adventures. 

We hope that you have enjoyed our blog. 

Gypsy Jean & Carp 😀

5/30/15 - Stroudsburg, PA

We traveled to a new campground in Stradsburg, PA.  We spent a day traveling the area & found a couple of waterfalls. 

The best waterfall was Dingman Falls. It was beautiful. 

We had to walk into the woods for a quarter of a mile, but the walk was worth it. 

Yours truly!  

Here is another waterfall that was on the walkway as well. 

This was SilverThread Falls. Smaller than Dingman's but beautiful just the same. 

I climed this flight if stairs to get a better picture of Carp below. 

It was a lovely day in spite of some rain. 

This was a tree next to the River with some awesome mushrooms on the bark. 

Enjoy!
