In a dramatic change of direction, we decided to buy a 130-year-old house. Things can change quickly around here! This all started because Emmaline didn’t want to sleep under our dining room table in our one-bedroom apartment (for Christmas). Fancy much?!? LOL! A few hours later I’d found us a new place…or…an old place! Everything …

We sold our condo back in August (thanks to realtor Jake) and moved into a one-bedroom apartment. That is what this video is about. Little did we know what the next video would be about. Our life took a big unexpected turn at the end of 2024. The DeanoRolls RV travel (and sometimes farm adventures) …

We visited Hilton Head, South Carolina, and took in a little resort life. We stayed at The Inn & Club at Harbour Town in The Sea Pines Resort. That sounds like a mouthful…a pretentious mouthful. LOL. Resort life is not our normal mode of travel. I noticed there seemed to be a lot of sleeping …

FREE BLTS! I did not want a tomato plant this year. But, the monster tomato plant I grew last year had other plans. So, I got a new plant from its seeds–volunteer tomatoes! I did almost nothing to help it but I still got a few BLTs out of it. It was a nice little …

Our trip to South Carolina was to check Congaree National Park off our national park list. It is a small national park but the spiders didn’t get that memo (hhuuuugggeeee). I was glad to have Emmaline with us because I’m an old fart and left my readers in the car so I couldn’t read the …
We toured 4 different plantations while in Charleston, SC. Each was very different. Middleton Place was my favorite property. It was immaculate. Deano’s got new yard goals! Magnolia had a more natural vibe. Boone Hall had the best driveway and felt like a movie set. My favorite tour in the entire city of Charleston was …
While in Charleston, we toured several historic homes. The entire city is covered with houses that are 200+ years old. We toured one restored home, one plantation home, and one preserved home (i.e., unrestored). Each was beautiful in different ways, and hearing the history of each was very interesting. As the tours unfolded, I realized …
Double Forts! While in Charleston, SC we visited Fort Sumter NM & Fort Moultrie NM. We started the morning off with a short boat ride over to Fort Sumter where we helped raise the Old Red, White, and Blue over the fort where the Civil War began. We headed over to Sullivan’s Island for a …

We did a lot in Charleston, South Carolina. Our initial sightseeing was to get a lay of the land. Cobblestone streets, good food, historical houses, seawalls, waterfront parks, fountains, city markets, historical tourist attractions, Civil War submarines, and haunted carriage rides. I definitely caught a ghost on film!
Gothic Avenue was our final tour at Mammoth Cave NP. Seeing all the candle smoke writing on the cave ceilings (from over a hundred years ago) was very interesting. We’d planned to hit another cave system while in the area but heavy rains closed that one down. So, we finished up our final tour at …
