    Default Long road trip is over

    and I'm climbing back on the frugal wagon!

    We drove from MI to Big Stone Gap VA (where dh was born) -- to St Augustine FL to Wekiwa Spring FL (camping all the way!!). Finally landed over in Spring Hill to visit with the Grandparents. Lets not even TALK about what we spent in gas but thanks to our pop up camper -- at least no hotels were needed. Hurricane Dennis rained out the tail end of our vacation (grumble grumble) but I'm sure glad to be back home! Whew!

    Welcome back! I won't even ask how much you spent on gas. I am sure it was outrageous with gas prices going up and up and up!!

    Nope...I don't even want to know! Gas was probably the biggest expense.

    Sounds like a nice road trip. I have never been to FL, i imagine it to be like the movies make it out to be, all tropical and romantic. Glad that you are back though, hope you had a great time!

    Tropical, romantic...sure. Hot, muggy, lots of bugs, rain everyday. But I mean that in a GOOD way! Did I mention we ca mped?? Of course I REALLY have to hand it to those crazy tent people. Now THOSE are some dedicated campers!
