Six months later ...

Hi Loves: This is the map on my coach door that tracks where we have been. Where do you think we are now? You’ll never guess.

… In the smallest state in the USA … Rhode Island! Can’t believe it’s been 6 months since my last blog. So, here’s a quick summary.

Remember ... you can click on any photo to enlarge it.

We left Savannah GA last May bound for South Carolina (where Carolina was born) and drove into the most lush paradise God has ever created … Hilton Head Island … so ... we live there now. Well … we own a piece of cement in a nice resort park and reside in our outdoor living space (yes, on the cement!) whenever possible. It’s really just like your house, about 1600 square foot foundation, just has no walls. Ha! Here’s my Lot #99 located at 133 Arrow Road, Hilton Head Island, SC 29928

The TV/Stereo is in the coach's compartment just to the right.

Tow car didn't have AC, so bought a new car. A Saturn, great for towing.

Our outdoor home amidst the humongous trees and moss.

The pond in the middle of our resort.

This is why Hilton Head is so special. Nature is first, commerce is hidden.

The lighthouse at Harbor Town, Hilton Head Island.

Many waterways throughout the island.

Typical main road in Hilton Head. There are no signs along the road.

Incredible old Oaks and moss everywhere.

Egret.

Blue Heron.

We have loads of crocodile who share the island with us. When they are on land and chase you, you just zig zag ... and lose them! I am totally fascinated by these creatures.

Green ponds all over.

And ... 50 miles of gorgeous pathways all around the island. You just ride your bike everywhere.

Then … after several months of creating our Hilton Head family ... we bee-lined up the coast to Maine (Oh, my God, went through Manhattan) to experience the amazing wonder of the fall foliage. Incredible experience.

Maine was utterly awesome … the quaint beach towns, incredible fall foliage, to-die-for steamers and lobster, people with the greatest accents. Here’s some photos of Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Camden (my favorite), Ogunquit. I think we will spend several months a year there.

Bar Harbor just south of Acadia.

Camden, my favorite town.

Camden public library grounds.

Had at least one lobster roll each day. Aw me Gawd!

Lunch ...

Ogunquit ... Perkins Cove.

Ogunquit ... again.

Cliff walk, Ogunquit.

When our park in Maine closed down ... we headed south and spent ten days in a very nice park outside of Boston. I took the subway in to Boston and did the town and Harvard University in one day. Boston is such a beautiful and culturally rich town, so filled with history and centuries of architecture, bridges, water and parks. A lovely mix of everything, and those folk with the wonderful Boston accent.

Our traveling home ... in Massachusetts.

A pond at our RV resort in Massachusetts.

And ... of to downtown Boston.

On the Boston subway.

In my Boston subway attire!

Boston Commons.

Another downtown Boston park.

Fountain in Commons Park.

Beautiful Brick buildings ... and walkways.

Row houses on Beacon Hill.

Another park in the midst of the 'big' city.

Historical Architecture.

Such an old, rich city. Reminds me of San Marcos Square, Venice.

Mary Baker Eddy (Christian Science) Center.

.... More ....

The first post office.

The Charles River with downtown Boston in the background.

Charles River Bridge.

Jumped on the subway again ... to Harvard Square.

Harvard University


Harvard University grounds.


Harvard University Chapel where I was so blessed to watch the incredible performance of the Harvard University Choir


Amazing Gothic Cathedral at Harvard University.

And ... before we left Mass, we visited Cape Cod ...

Then ... a couple of days ago we headed south to Newport, Rhode Island ... where we are now until they close on 10/31 ... almost have the entire park to ourselves! And ... this city park is surrounded by hiking trails that go to Naragannset Bay which is only 1/4 mile away. We will explore Newport today ...



We've been on the road nearly one year and four months now! What an incredible life. We will continue to slowly mosey back to Hilton Head as weather permits and probably arrive just in time for Thanksgiving.

Thanks for sharing it with us!

Love, Marilyn & Carolina
