A month home, then Jersey Shore, a 10 day car trip in the Mid-Atlantic, and the summer with family on the Jersey Shore and in New England. Autumn was spent in northern New England & upstate New York.

2024 – Year 2-in-a-row On the Road!
Getting in the Groove!
Loving Life-on-the-Road with The Beast and Lizzy. Leaving Cocoa, we spent January going around Florida, then along the Gulf Coast to New Orleans, thru Louisiana & Mississippi. After a bit more time in Louisiana & Mississippi, we visited all the Alabama NPs, before heading on up through the Smokies, Blue Ridge and Shenandoah to the Jersey Shore. After a 6 week trip home, we’ll spend the early summer in the Northeast for more family time. Then off for western New York and around the Great Lakes, and South on the River Road to…New Orleans for Christmas? (updated 4/12/24)
