Hi everyone! Yes it's been awhile and I hope to improve on our travel updates as times goes on. Here we are in April and the seasons seem to pass so quickly. Can you believe it's Spring? Can time just slow
 down a little?

We were in Conway SC for three months for the winter. We had a nice time and really enjoyed the area there. About 15 min's from Myrtle  Beach. The resort we stayed at had a lot to offer.(Caroline Pines RV Resort) If you want to check this place out be sure to check out our You Tube video. While there we were able to hang out with some great people. Chris & Frank, Michelle & Tom, and Joyce & Mark were all very patient with us as we played putt putt, bowling and pool with them. Made it so nice to get to know people and enjoy their company. We also had some great neighbors Beth & Bob who we really enjoyed visiting with. They were also there for 3 months.

During the months of Jan. & Feb. it was not very busy at the resort but it seemed that when March rolled around the place became very busy with a lot of RV'ers. Our spot on the corner was a little interesting. Got to see all the RV's come in which Tom liked. Spring break was happening in March so the place filled up quickly. This lasted all the way to when we left. 

We did get to go to Patriots Point in Charleston SC and visit a couple ships there. So much fun and hopefully next time we can visit more of Charleston.

We got to take our granddaughter to the beach. She had never seen the beach and so what a treat it was for her. She loved it! We also ventured out to go cart racing one night that was a lot of fun. There really is so much to see in and do in the area there. We found a beautiful beach there called Huntington Beach. So pretty and things to see there. We did see some alligators which was a little scary with the way they were watching us. And knowing how fast they can run makes one nervous. 

Since Florida wasn't too far away (8 hrs lol) we decided to go see my cousin in Summerfield Fl. We did not take the RV but stayed with them which was so nice. My cousin Jan and his wife Ann were so  much fun to hang out with. We all seem to have this family bond which I love. It was a nice break away too for us from where we were. We are actually looking at a campground for next winter which is close to them. :)

We ended up taking a trip back to MD for Dr's appts and see our family! We really miss them all. Being away from our cute grandchildren is not easy but we do try to see each other often through Zoom or facetime. We also got to see some friends of ours which was fun and house sit for our friends Calvin & Sharon. We appreciate their kindness in letting us stay with them. We stayed one extra day to see them when they came home. We did have two days of ice so that kept us inside and took us away from doing other things. 

We left for North Carolina the first week of April. Time to move on and we were ancy. We headed to Tanglewood Campground in Clemmons. We have been here before and it's one of our favorite places to go. Nice trails to walk and if you like to ride your bike hard they have some crazy trails here. We were able to visit with our daughter and granddaughter. That was so nice. Always hard to say goodbye though.  

We did get our Covid vaccine while we are here. So we are fully vaccinated. I did have side effects from BOTH shots. Crazy huh? But it's done and I'm glad to do it. 

One of the things I love about full timing are the people we meet along the way. What a treat it is to us to meet these great people along RVenture! 


Our time here at Tanglewood is coming to an end. We are heading to Ashevile NC tomorrow for a week, staying at Powhatten Recreation Campground. Can't wait and from there we head to TN for two weeks with our good friends Frank & Chris. Looking forward to that trip.

I know things are still crazy with the Covid, so I hope you and your family are well. This year has to be better. It's so much better then this time last year, right?

Until next time take care and we will see you around the campfire!
