This is the travels of Joe and Nancy. Nancy is part Cherokee and I'm Hungarian, thus the name of our blog. We started full timing May,1,2000. We traveled in our motorhome visiting beaches,state parks,national parks,corp of engineer parks. We have overnighted in Walmarts, 24 hour grocery store, boat ramps, FlyingJ. Now with health issues and old age. Plus, we have not used the motorhome in a few years, this part of our life has come to an end.
We went walking over to the J B Starkey Park again today. We like to walk in this park because we usually see some kind of wild animals. This was one of two turtles we saw on the pathways. This one was 8"-10" in diameter. He just kind of posed to have his picture taken. Temps in the 80's today.

Well we went to church today and after a good service we came home and got on our walking clothes. We walked down as far as Dennys and stopped in there gor lunch. Dennys may not be te best place but,they have a local coupon where if you buy one meal you get another free. Now that is a hard deal to pass up. After we ate we finished our walk for a total of 5 miles for the day.
This is another beautiful site of flowers blooming out. This is behind the Gulfview Mall in Port Richey,Florida where we do some our walking. Even though we are full timers we do a lot of stuff that "normal people" do when we set still for a while in one place.
Well we did get down and back with our visit to Nancy's sister(Sally). Our daughter (Sherry) and her husband(Mark) came down for a visit yesterday. We went down to Tarpon Lake and walked around looking at the birds and alligators. I took the picture of the beautiful bird o a dead branch and another one in flight in the background. Someone told me it was an osprey. I had to wait quite a while to get this picture because I saw a lot of birds flying around and I wanted to get one in the background while this one was perched on the branch. A long wait but it was worth it in order to get the picture.
I'm always looking to find more space in the motor home to put things. In the picture you can see I found some an empty area that wasn't being used just under and behind the kitchen sink. I cut out and framed this opening,went to a cabinet shop and had a door made for $20.00. We keep the small vacuum cleaner and room enough for caned goods. Also have a small inverter. The wife didn't like the kitchen faucet so I got one of the faucets from Home Depot with the sprayer on it that pulls out.
The coming of spring is a beautiful time of the year. All the different flowers in bloom. The full timer can enjoy the breaking of spring several times. Starting in the south and then working your way north. Of course if you have allergies this can be a problem.
One thing about going to different parts of the country is the birds that you see. The other day while walking we saw a bald eagle beside a pond of water. The eagle is a beautiful and proud bird.
