there’ll be some changes made

In 1844, while in Mazatlan,  famous author Herman Melville apparently spoke the above words. In 2015, while in Mazatlan,  Larry and Marilyn Vanstone stopped to read the above plaque, both nodded their heads in agreement and said; “Hey, that’s us!” And with that, let me tell you about some big plans in the Vanstone’s home-on…

One Month In Mexico

It’s been a month today since we rolled into the Tres Amigos RV Park on Isla de la Piedra (that’s Stone Island to us gringos) and I wouldn’t be exaggerating if I said we have been having a good time. From the negative point of view, getting to Stone Island in itself is a voyage. …

Gluten Free Chat

Last night, while enjoying another delicious gluten-free dinner with Dale and Sheila the conversation got around to the differences we notice as we decrease the gluten in our diet. The Ducarmes have been off the gluten for three or four weeks now while we are just a few days away from 4 months. So while…

Florida Mountain Climbers

Today we report from high atop southern Florida’s highest natural point. We are here to share with you the amazing view from this almost nose-bleed altitude. In this picture our camera (actually it’s my smart phone) is gazing  off to the northeast. You can see the Intercoastal Waterway and then beyond, the Atlantic Ocean. You can also see…

Hit The Road, Jack

That’s us, up in the top left of the map. I’m standing right next to the green flag waving at you. Our voyage today involves travelling 197 miles south-east across central Florida to Jonathan Dickinson State Park near Hobe Sound. That’s where you see the checkered flag. Our GPS says the process will take three hours and…

Shining Up For Santa

This all started yesterday morning when Angel and Buster each got a bath. Then Angel got her Christmas haircut. This morning was Buster’s turn. After trimming Buster so he’ll look good for the big guy Marilyn moved on to shampooing the carpet while I worked on polishing the coach exterior. Tomorrow we get ready to hit the road…

I Got It Up

I used to put videos on my blog all the time but the last couple of years, not so much. But now that I’m so much more geekish I figured I’d better get back into it, so here’s the first of hopefully many more. I shot the video on my smartphone last night while we…

KeyRing

We talked the other day about an app we had learned about called LastPass. Here’s another you might like to use on your smart phone or tablet. It seems that other than Wal-Mart all the major retailers in the US and  Canada use loyalty cards to develop brand loyalty.  When we get down here we …

School Day Eaten Away

You are looking at a picture of a group of eager young students out in the fresh air and sunshine for almost the very first time this week, and does that sunshine ever feel good! Usually Marilyn and I start our day with a shake. Not like she shakes me and I shake her and then we…
