Florida

Snorkeling! Finally! An underwater adventure was at the top of our “must do” list while in the Keys. For the past 7 weeks (can you believe we’ve been here for…

Just another week in paradise. Hard to believe we’ve been in the Keys for 6 weeks already! Last week began much as the previous one ended, on the beach at Bahia…

What do you do when you have a backyard full of Coconut Palms that produce pounds and pounds of coconuts every year? You eat a lot of coconut of course! While…

So after we shared our adventure at the highly recommended St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, a bunch of people commented that St. George Island was even nicer. Even nicer! How…
