Livin' Part of Life

It’s been a very busy 4 months since we last posted. There are plenty of things to share as we are now again in prep mode for our next adventure in Livvy. This winter we again debated the “to cover or not to cover” question. For the second year running, we did not cover. So… Read more

Finally taking a moment to post since we finished our trip over a week ago. We are home safely, and thanks for those who checked on us when our posting stopped abruptly. We hope that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday with those that you love most. Technically, it’s Rick’s “turn” to post, but I… Read more

Today we are at Myrtle Beach! But first, a recap of the past couple of days We did love the Hilton Head National RV resort. We learned from conversation with the friendly (bartender) staff that it is only 2.5 years old. It was previously a 9 hole golf course. They made a significant investment, as… Read more

It was time to say goodbye to Florida this morning and begin making our way back north. Our home for tonight and tomorrow night is near Hilton Head, South Carolina. Neither of us had been here before, and the campsite is spectacular! We spent most of our last two days in Orlando simply relaxing. The… Read more

That. Was. Exhausting. While we loved the opportunity to see most of the Disney Orlando parks, it definitely took its toll on us physically. We needed and appreciated a good rest day on Saturday! The needy bichon returned to us as planned on Friday evening. She even got a report card! I am grateful for… Read more

Today marked our last day in the parks for this trip to Orlando. And we saved the best for last. Magic Kingdom. Why is Magic Kingdom our favorite? Mostly because this is where our memories of Disney were formed. There are rides here that, while not thrilling, are deeply rooted in our histories. But I… Read more

We chose well. We had our first Livvy visit to Disney’s Fort Wilderness campground in January. We decided then that we would like to come back and spend more time here, including time to go to the parks. That is an investment and requires significant coordination, as any of you who have been here know.… Read more

I couldn’t sleep last night. I don’t mean the type of night where you nod on and off, getting a half hour here or there. I mean I could not sleep at all. Why? Likely because I was excited about getting to Disney. I was anxious about the pending sale of our Avon house (what… Read more

Well the rest of our adventure in Nashville was literally rained out, with approx 1.5 inches of rain between Sat pm and our departure this am. It did, however, align well with our agenda of being lazy. Our laziness consisted of watching football, working on our needlepoint projects and eating great food. It was wonderful!… Read more

Nashville is the heart of music. So many singers, songwriters, and musicians got their start playing bars on Lower Broadway. And it’s not just country music. It’s bluegrass and blues and soul and rock, among others. Like the song says about the “other” Broadway, “If I can make it there I’ll make it anywhere.” Yesterday… Read more
