Taking advantage of this year's hurricane season to rediscover America. We're calling it the R.A.T. (Rediscover America Tour). While Sanibel sits on dry dock at Safe Cove boatyard in Port Charlotte, Florida, Jimi and I will be traveling 49 of the 50 U.S. States. Along the way we're going to recapture what America's made of, visiting out-of-the-way and well -known places, reconnecting with friends and family and much more.

The van did - she took us all around the lower 48. And we are beyond thankful. Way to go Chevy!
I absolutely love traveling. There are few things as good as just picking up and traveling wherever and whenever you want to. I have a child in school, so I do need to wait for him to be off. Other than that, the two of us are out and about all over America during all times of the year. It's the good life.
