Each winter since we’ve been RVing we’ve had the goal of going to the Florida Keys. But between bad weather, full campgrounds, and family commitments, it’s taken us until this year to make it. And wow, was it worth the wait! There’s something magical as you leave the mainland, driving south on US 1.

Don’t miss the blooper near the end!Read More →
