Best Places to Visit in Florida
When most people think of Florida, they think of sunshine, theme parks, orange juice, and alligators. But this former Spanish colony, which became the 27th state to enter the Union, is much more than that. Bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Gulf of Mexico on the other, it has a mile upon a mile of white sand beaches. Its moderate climate makes it a popular tourist destination all year round. Here’s a look at the best places to visit in Florida.

Home
I grew up in a small city. My neighbors knew who I was and would say there is Ms. So or So's grandson. If you came home from school and your neighbors were at home but your parents weren't the neighbors were in charge and had permission to discipline you. If you were disciplined by your neighbors, you would also be disciplined by your parents. Roanoke was the first city in the world to have an all volunteer Life Saving Crew. Which is a really distinguished honor to have bestowed upon us.

Vegas on a Budget
I have always loved to travel. When I was younger, my step mother tried to take me everywhere, and wherever she was allowed to take me, I was always happy to go. When I got older and had to foot the bill myself, there were only so many places I could afford with even less time to go, and traveling went on the back burner. Back in February, I started my new side gig as a travel agent. It was something that I wanted to try since some friends had already done this years before, but I just never took the leap until finally, with the pandemic and with everyone trying new things, I decided to go for it. Because I am still relatively new to the industry, I needed to really get out here and travel more, but my budget is very meager seeing how I am a student, mother of three teenagers, and I just started on this brand new journey, I decided it was now or never. Vegas, though it is easy to rack up a nice little price tag in America's playground, can still be done on a budget. Here are just a few clues as to how to save a coin or two and still do everything that you might want to do there.

It's Summer!!
With summer starting, and being able to start to be more social, after being hit with such a pandemic, as COVID-19, there's quite a bit to get excited about. No matter what type of activities your interested in, there's mostly an event for it. Amusement and National parks are opening back up, as well as concerts and gatherings being worked up to be able to be held. I have to admit, I'm happy to see things start to be a little, "normal". Whatever that is, right?

How is it a Dusty, Desert Campground Feels Like Home?
We're back! After four years we're finally back on the road. We're traveling across the country, literally from California to Maine, in our new-to-us Mini Rig. We haven't officially named it yet, so for now we're going with the Mini Rig. The name fits since it's definitely mini. It's 25 feet of coziness.

The Motel Sign
It was the late 1970’s – early 1980’s from the back seat of my mother’s brown Toyota Corona that similar motel signs were seen. I learned to love seeing those signs in the late starry, moonlit nights as my road-weary, sleepy eyes opened because I felt the car coming to a stop. The brightly illuminated, oh-so retro signs indicated I’d be sleeping in a bed versus a sleeping bag… on hard ground… in a tent. And I got to watch TV! Albeit in a shifty, quintessential, stale-cigarette-smoke-smelling motel room. Cable and remote controls weren’t an option back then and the three channels on the black and white dial television broadcasting Fantasy Island, The Love Boat, Chips and The Dukes of Hazard kept me entertained.
