Go, See, Do, Experience!
Our United States Capitol tour was set for 10:00 a.m. We knew the visitor center opened at 8:30 a.m. so we got there when it opened. We figured we could look around in the visitor center before the tour. Security was easy to get through and then, since I had timed tickets, we went to... Continue Reading →
Do you know there is a university designed exclusively for the deaf and signing community? It started more than 150 years ago and is in Washington, D.C. Gallaudet University. https://gallaudet.edu/about/ I was so excited to see this place. I became 100% deaf four years ago and the eight or so years before that I was... Continue Reading →
We had a tour scheduled this evening so we hung out until 10:00 a.m. and then headed out. We went back to National Museum of American History for the day. I was thrilled to see Julia Child’s display. It is actually her real kitchen! She donated the whole thing to this Smithsonian. All her cooking... Continue Reading →
We headed east from Raleigh to the Outer Banks and Atlantic Ocean coast. We got to Oregon Inlet Campground on the Outer Banks and discovered there are sand dunes behind us, between the campground and the Atlantic Ocean. We quickly got set up and then walked over…or through…the dunes. “Through” because the sand is so... Continue Reading →
As we head out from South Carolina on the Travel Day, we saw there are so many trees along the road - just like Louisiana, Mississippi, etc, that you can’t see anything else. So, they have fun billboard signs. Oh - these signs are so tall they almost give you a neck pain looking so... Continue Reading →
In the middle of the night I had the thought to check out sometime. See, we planned to go to Savannah, Georgia, today (Saturday, March 16) for a day trip. Somewhere I had read about events and it mentioned a St Patrick’s Day parade. Hum, would they have the parade on Saturday or on the... Continue Reading →
The drive from Brunswick, Georgia to Yemassee, South Carolina: Everywhere we look we see swamps. Sometimes the land would open up to be a marsh. Saw several rivers, as well. Same as the other south swamp states. Got to The Oaks At Point South Campground, Yemassee, SC, at exactly 1:00 p.m. check in time. The... Continue Reading →
Do you always remember where you first met your friends? Usually I do but for this special couple, I can’t remember how we found each other's blogs and she doesn’t either. HAHA We got to meet in person Betty and Dan! What a thrill! We met through our blogs. I am not even sure how... Continue Reading →
Day 3: We went to John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park on Key Largo. Kevin asked me if we should get a Florida State Park pass. Sure, that is a good idea. Turns out each park gets a certain number of the passes per year. This park had 3 left and the cost doubled tomorrow.... Continue Reading →
Just before Christmas, I made two different things for Kevin. I made his mom’s chocolate peanut butter balls and also no bake chocolate oatmeal cookies. Both delicious. Giant-Sized Checkers, Thousand Trails Orlando, Clermont, FL 12/23 My brother said we have a package coming from Amazon so we walked to the campground clubhouse here at Thousand... Continue Reading →
