After a night of covert camping beach side at Key West, Tim and I decided it was time to move on. We’d enjoyed our time in Key West but with no place to stay, it was time to go. We drove out of town without a plan until 20 miles up the road, we turned [...]
We Started Driving US1 in Maine…We've finally came to the End of the Road
After a blog break, there is much to catch up on. We’ll start on Thursday with our arrival to Key West. We pulled into town early in the morning and Frank was making a horrible racket. Armstrong Ford [...]
Reporting from Key West, January 24th, 2010. Tim and I are plagued with the Key’s Disease….
First symptom: 7 days between blog posts
Second symptom: Tim hasn’t showered in 118 hours (long beard is a notorious sign of the illness)
Third symptom: excessive sun and fun, sunburn all around with Ann & Scott and Sigman & Christine
Fourth symptom: [...]
We’d been warned…but I think we may have caught it despite ourselves. Tim and I seem to come down with a serious case of Keys Disease. Folks say it’s a state of mind, and I’d have to agree, once on the Florida Keys, you just don’t want to leave.

As we huddle in Frank on the Sunshine Key while 30 mph Northern winds blast above us, Tim and I reflect on the dubious records we’ve been a part of over the last 5 months. Though our trip was designed to escape Wyoming Winter, we feel like we have a stormy stalker.

Tonight we spend another night in Homestead, Florida. Frank’s new hubs have been ordered from Sportsmobile. They are slated for arrival tomorrow morning, at which time Armstrong Ford will move like lightening to get them installed and get us out of here. We’ve become like family and just like family sometimes can be, they’ll be [...]
Cruise Ship Parking Only
Tonight on our last night in South Beach, we reflect on the moments of this unusual but hilarious, chilly vacation. Frank’s still in the shop and in the meantime we’ve traveled to South Beach Miami in a UHaul Cargo van for an unexpected 4 day detour from our stay [...]
Since the Ball dropped on America, our lives have become more and more surreal.
After our Black Eyed Pea Breakfast, we packed up and went to the beach. The weather report called for rain, but the sun was sparkling and the temperature in the 70′s. It was cool for the locals but just right for us [...]
We’d been told. No we’d been WARNED. Key West on New Years is wild. As we sit in the sun after our New Years Day breakfast of Cowboy Omelet, Black eyed peas, Collard Greens and Bloody Marys, we have to agree.
“I think I’m gaining weight by the hour” Jimmie informed us. But with all the [...]
