Prior to purchasing our rig we drove around and took a look at many of the RV parks and campgrounds in our area, hoping to find a good place to land our yacht. One of those places was Jay Landings. Our initial impression was that it seemed a bit crowded and cramped. But, the day we visited was a holiday weekend, so we thought perhaps it just seemed crowded because of...
There aren’t many options for RV parking in (or near) Athens, Alabama. As such, if you come into town for the Bluegrass Festival or the Storytellers Festival, you’ll likely find yourself parking at Northgate RV Park. We call Athens, Alabama home, so after buying our RV in FL and returning, we needed a place to park while we got set up. Northgate RV Travel...
Emerald Beach RV Park in Navarre Florida was a place we didn’t want to leave, and not just because we had an amazing view of the water (even though our spot wasn’t waterfront). When we headed down to Ft. Myers to pick up Bessie, Julie wanted to try to work a little vacation into our return trip. Brandon wasn’t so sure he could make it work with work...
Our second stop with our new (to us) Bighorn 3875FB was a night at Lake City Campground in Lake City Florida. Here we were just looking for an easily accessible place to spend a single night. We tried to break our return trip (from Florida to Alabama) down into reasonable chunks of about 250 miles, and that put our first stop around Lake City Florida. Using the Good...
Seminole Campground in Ft. Myers Florida is an RV campground with some RV Resort level amenities.
A few people have thought we were crazy to drive 800 miles to buy our first RV. Why not buy something closer? Something you could easily walk through before having it inspected. Why would you want to make an 800 mile trek home as your first RV trip? We feel we had two really good reasons. Availability and Price! After a couple of months of looking at Class A’s , we...
We began looking at RVs online and joining Facebook groups during the summer of 2018. As a result, we began seeing ads for Workamper Rendezvous – a conference for RVers and those who want to be. Before these ads we’d never heard of workamping and had no idea what it is. Initial research seemed to indicate that it was the idea of living and working from...
In August of 2018 we were just beginning our journey. We’d done some window shopping but we still had to sell my house before any real movement could be made. But, it wasn’t too early for us to attend Workamper Rendezvous event and learn as much as we could about living and working from a home on wheels. We previously shared a bit of what we learned at...
