• Exploring Arizona: Red Rocks & Beyond
    Nov 19 2024

    Next stop on our journey: Camp Verde, Arizona! We enjoyed a fantastic dinner at Astoria International Bistro and watched the sunset paint the sky.

    In Sedona, we marveled at the ancient red rocks, explored Oak Creek Canyon’s fall foliage, and savored Southwest flavors at the Cowboy Club.

    A thrilling drive took us to Jerome, a quirky hillside town with a rich mining history. Back at the RV, a coyote serenaded us under the stars.

    The highlight? My first Arizona show at Zane Grey RV Village—what an unforgettable kickoff! Now, we’re in Lake Havasu!

  • From Turtles to Tuna, Our Port Aransas, Texas Fourth of July Weekend
    Jul 23 2024

    Join us this week as we share our exciting 4th of July adventure at Gulf Waters RV Resort in beautiful Port Aransas, Texas. From picturesque pond views at our RV spot to savoring exquisite seafood with a French twist at the YardArm Restaurant in Corpus Christi, our journey was so much fun.

    From a distance in Corpus, we saw the amazing USS Lexington and paid homage at the Selena Memorial, surrounded by the vibrant marina. We took in the lively beach scene of Port Aransas, where we also enjoyed the best of coastal dining at The Black Marlin and indulged in a unique sundae at Taiyaki Ice Cream.

    We capped off our visit with fireworks at Robert’s Point Park and soaked in the beauty of the Gulf Coast with a morning bike ride. Despite a sudden evacuation due to Hurricane Beryl, our time in Port Aransas left us longing for more. Whether you're a history buff, food enthusiast, or beach lover, Port Aransas offers something special for everyone. When you watch this video, you'll see what I mean!

  • Savoring Burnt Ends in Lockhart, TX and Making Lavender Discoveries in Luling, Texas
    Jul 16 2024

    Join us on a sun-soaked Friday afternoon as we journey to Terry Black's BBQ in Lockhart, the "Barbecue Capital of Texas." The 45-minute drive from New Braunfels was brimming with anticipation for their legendary brisket burnt ends.

    Upon arrival, we dodged the lunch rush and indulged in a feast of smoky, melt-in-your-mouth burnt ends, creamy corn, macaroni, a refreshing cola, and a specialty beer brewed just for Terry Black's.

    Our adventure didn't end there. We headed to the enchanting Luling Lavender Fields. Despite the fields not being in bloom, we delighted in picking up a CBD Black Cherry Sparkling Water and lovely smelling lavender deodorant.

    As we drove back to New Braunfels, our hearts were full from savoring Texas's finest BBQ, my favorite, and discovering lavender treasures.

    Jul 10 2024

    Join us as we recount our thrilling journey to Nebraska to purchase our new motor home, now our full-time home on wheels. The adventure began with Alan’s extensive research leading us to the perfect RV, even though it was all the way in Nebraska!

    We set off early, filled with excitement and anticipation, driving through changing landscapes and dreaming of future travels. In Nebraska, the friendly dealership staff made the process smooth and enjoyable. Seeing our motor home for the first time was surreal and exceeded our expectations.

    After the purchase, we stayed the night at the dealership and enjoyed a lovely dinner in Lincoln, Nebraska. The next day, we began our journey back to San Antonio in our new motor home, filled with joy as we explored our new space and started making it our own. The scenic views and excitement of this new chapter made the journey unforgettable.

    We can’t wait to share more stories and adventures as we embrace full-time RV living. Stay tuned!
