E – “Cleveland Rocks”
Our last destination visit was Cleveland. When I was first planning the route we needed at least one break between Nashville and home and I saw Cleveland and said gotta go…Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame! It was really good. I saw something pertaining to so many of my favourites, some are in the hall…

Di: Cleveland
On a wintry morning a few months ago, I took a peek at E’s latest itinerary. Puzzled, I asked, “Why are we going to Cleveland?” Silly me. Cleveland is home to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. 😊 With blues, jazz, and country behind us, this was a great last stop on the musical…

Di: Nashville, y’all
We’re back to nice, quiet sites. 😉 I knew I would like Nashville. I was looking forward to it for the same reasons as New Orleans: music and food! Both cities do each well, but in completely different ways. First up was the three-hour, Cumberland River tour to Nashville and back via the General Jackson…

E – A little Honky Tonkin’
Nashville lived up to the rather high expectations! It was a great third leg of the musically influenced part of our trip. Our first experience was a walk down Broadway where the majority of the bars are. The first place we hit was, Layla’s Honky Tonk. The trio here were absolutely amazing! After that we…

E – “Long distance information give me Memphis, Tennessee”
It wasn’t intentional at the beginning of planning this trip but once we started it became apparent that the second half of the trip would have a ton of music related stuff and Memphis just enhanced the whole leg. For those that have known me a long time, you know I have always been an…

Diane: Memphis — All Elvis
With only one day in Memphis, we headed out early for the Sun Studio tour, and then spent some time on Beale Street before heading to Graceland. Elvis and so many great performers had their start at Sun Studios. It’s still a working studio, and our guide, who is also a session musician, had good…

E – Kick’n it in the Bayou
New Orleans was awesome! The site I booked here was one of the earliest as the Jazz Festival was in town and you had to book a minimum stay, which was fine with us, and the place is very popular. It only has like 55 sites and you can walk to the French Quarter. We…

Di: Music Utopia in New Orleans
New Orleans was one of the destinations I was most looking forward to. It met my high expectations. 😊 Our site was just a few blocks from the French Quarter, so we could come and go easily. It was also right next to the Lafitte Greenway, which is a multi-use path that connects major areas…

E – Chillin’ in Port St. Joe
When I first booked Port St. Joe I was looking for a stop on the way to New Orleans from south Florida that would give us a couple days of beach relaxation and Port St. Joe didn’t disappoint. The park we stayed in was right on St. Josephs Bay which is separated from the Gulf…

Diane: Port St. Joe
This is a beautiful coastal area where we’ve enjoyed sunsets at our waterfront site: One evening, while enjoying this view, the people in the next site had a visitor looking for dinner: I had a few great bike rides out the Cape San Blas peninsula. We spent an afternoon at the nine-mile beach in the…
