Coronado Del Sol
Yesterday was moving day. From waterfront to back row. Bummed to be losing the coveted, unobstructed view, we moved from site 127 to #2 and got closer to the bathhouse behind an empty handicapped site and facing the beach access
Midway Ferry Tales
Once upon a time we were commuters. Up at 6, out the door at 7, in the office by 8. Day after day, year after year, ugh after ugh. It had become a faded memory until yesterday when we were
Good, Good, Good Vibrations
One of the most popular RV parks in the DoD system, Fiddler’s Cove is in the middle of Coronado Island, about 3 miles south of the iconic Hotel del Coronado, a National Historic Landmark and one of the few surviving

The I-8 cuts San Diego in half with its 12 lanes of high-speed traffic. Each day we search for roads (other than QualComm Blvd} that cross this highway without it being a white knuckle adventure. Most of the time, however, we

Viva Fortuna!
We’ve finally adjusted to west coast time, coffee at 6:30, dayplanning til 7:30, rewiring the electrical circuits by 8:30. Betty has a curious lighting design – a mix of undercounter and decorative fixture halogens, fluorescent industrials and incandescent spots. 18
West Coast Chillin’
Sometimes we have to remind ourselves that we are not on vacation – just full-time livin’ in an RV. Fourteen days into our west coast expedition and we could only count one day of downtime where we weren’t hiking, biking
