Visiting Kennedy Space Center – Cape Canaveral, FL

From Vero, we ‘launched’ north to Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, FL for my first visit there. “One small drive from man”…err. The night before we’d caught a Space X launch through the clouds to get us hyped up for it. After a slight delay in our ‘liftoff’ (women) we finally ‘touched down’ for …

Revisiting Apalachicola, FL and St George Island, FL (and the St. George Lighthouse)

It had been 15-ish years since we’d been in the Apalachicola area. The Indian Pass Raw Bar had received a major upgrade. I wasn’t feeling too hot so the girls went shopping in town before we ate at the Owl Cafe. It was just as good as I remembered. We stayed one night on the …

Revisiting Cape San Blas and Port St. Joe Florida (After 15 Years)

We spent a ton of time on Cape San Blas when the kids were little. On our Spring Break road trip this year we looped through there again and spent a day revisiting the area (near Port St. Joe, Florida). It had been 15 years since we’d been there. It had changed, but not too …

Visiting White Oak Pastures (I Met Will Harris!)

It has been a year since I started learning about regenerative farming (and White Oak Pastures). In a stroke of serendipity, our Spring Break road trip this year took us right by their farm in Bluffton, GA. It would be crazy to not stop by for a quick visit?!? As we drove I made the …

Winterizing The Farm and The RV (DeanoFarms: Week 34)

I didn’t think through winterizing our building for the winter very well this first winter. I got busy and kept putting it off. Then, it got really cold! I solved it after a cold spike in late December. But, not before I rang up a big ‘ol gas bill. No busted water pipes, however. I …

Sunrise and Sunset at Natchez Trace State Park

Sometimes things don’t go according to plan when traveling to a new place. We were winter camping but the weather was beautiful and not too cold at all. I planned a big hike, but we punted on that when we got to the campground. We had a great lakeside spot. I decided we needed to …

Winter Camping at David Crockett State Park (Lawrenceburg, TN)

We headed down the Natchez Trace Parkway to Lawrenceburg, TN for some winter camping at David Crockett State Park. There was beautiful ice in the trees on the way down. The weather cooperated all weekend and we got our first trip of 2023 completed. This one had all the staples with hikes, waterfalls, a campfire, …

Deano’s One Disc White Album

Task: Cut the White Album down to a single disk (15 songs) AND resequence the album. Joey’s Resequence Notes: I view this album as the first sign that the Beatles would break up. I’ve sequenced the album in that fashion. From songs the entire band was involved in and fairly typical (whatever that means) Beatles …
