We were contemplating where to head after St. Louis, feeling pulled westward to keep on track for our lighthouse hosting gig in Oregon this fall. And then Chris’ aunt Sherry got in touch, and said she and her boyfriend were back in the area – and they’d love to see us, at his castle. We had […]
Our Travels
A Wonderful Time in St. Louis
Chris has family in St. Louis. And over the years of us stopping in, I’ve just fallen in love with the city. This particular trip back had some goals: Spend time with Chris’ grandma, who had taken quite a spill earlier this year. She’s doing great! Move some boxes from our bus bay that we’ve […]

Launching from the Space Coast
Our adventures next landed us in Melbourne, Florida – which is where I had lived for 12 years prior to meeting Chris in 2006 and subsequently hitting the road with him. We’ve spent a lot of time on Florida’s Space Coast, as my parents remained living there and of course, we were here through a […]
Bouncing Around Central Florida
After our re-charging stay at the gorgeous Sertoma Youth Ranch, it was time to do what we came to Florida for – spend time with family. We had hoped to get in more family time this winter, but many things conspired to make that not happen as much. In particular, Chris’ parents ended up rather […]
