Our Story So Far...


Sun, Shells, Songs, and a Sand Crane Conversation — Week 5 at Splash RV Resort
November 2025: Week five at Splash RV Resort in Milton was basically our greatest hits album: beach day bliss, bikes into town, pool time no matter what the clouds think, and a weekend full of pizza, karaoke, and live music. If you like sunsets, frisbees, and mildly questionable conversations with wildlife… welcome. Don’s Birthday at Opal Beach We kicked off the week celebrating Don’s birthday the only way that feels right: toes in the sand at Opal Beach (part of the Gulf I

Week 4 at Splash RV Resort: Chili, Karaoke Courage & Poolside Shenanigans
November 2025: If Week 4 at Splash RV Resort had a theme, it would be “sunshine-powered socializing with a side of chaos.” The weather showed off, the pool became our second living room, and somehow, we sang our way through yet another weekend. Let’s rewind. Before we dive into pool days, karaoke bravery, and chili-fueled victories, let’s talk about something new I’ve added to my daily routine… Bass Lines, YouTube & Fingertip Survival Somewhere between bike rides and tiki dr

Week 3 at Splash RV Resort: Bikes, Beer, Thrown Rolls & Florida Full-Circle Moments
November 2025: By Week 3 at Splash RV Resort in Milton, FL, we were fully settled into the rhythm: sunshine dictates plans, bikes go everywhere, live music magically appears, and somehow we keep running into people from Fort Collins… in Florida. Because of course we do. Gulf Shores, AL: Bikes, Brews & Flying Carbs We loaded up the truck for a road trip to Gulf Shores, Alabama , tossing our folding bikes in the bed (thank you, compact engineering—you’re the real MVPs). First s

Week 1 at Splash RV Resort: Bikes, Birthdays & Big Halloween Energy
October 2025: Well, we made it! Our first week back at Splash RV Resort in Milton, FL , and let me tell you… October here is not for the faint of heart. These folks take Halloween more seriously than Kroger takes BOGO sales. The whole campground is basically a festive, over-caffeinated Spirit Halloween, and we are so here for it. Pedaling Down Memory Lane Since we spent a chilly stretch here back in January , we hopped on our bikes to take a spin through the East Milton ne

Week 18: Saying Goodbye to Colorado with a Bang
October 2025: Hello friends, family, fellow wanderers - it’s your resident life-chaser signing off from our final week in Colorado at Loveland RV Resort, destination: the great unknown … but first, a massive wrap-up of our week (and frankly our Phase 2 event for the Great American Beer Festival!)

Week 17 at Loveland RV Resort: A Slice of October in the Rockies
September - October 2025: Hey friends, family, and fellow roaming souls - welcome back to the latest installment of Chasing 78° Life where we’re roasting marshmallows in the fire-pit of life and simultaneously trying not to burn the camper (this week: close call ahead). Here’s a peek into Week 17 in our Himalayan foothills (okay, Colorado foothills) stay at Loveland, CO - and yes, I found the perfect excuse to use the words foothills and free fried onions in the same post.

Week 16 at Loveland RV Resort: Burgers, Pumpkins, Beers & One Last Sunday Flick
Hello, fabulous fellow road-warriors, RV-life lovers, and dear “Chasing 78°” readers! It’s week 16 here in Loveland, Colorado, and let me tell you - between secret menus, Italian feasts, pumpkin escapades, and beer-competition hijinks, we’ve hit that sweet spot of RV-park comfort meets “we’re still on an adventure” vibes. Grab your coffee (or kombucha) and buckle up for a run-down of the fun. Monday: A Burger Aha! Moment I introduced my good friend Kara (who ventured down fr

Week 15 at Loveland RV Resort: Ducks, Bikes, Beer & Pirates (Oh My!)
September 2025: Hey friends - welcome back to the weird, wild world of full-time RV life. This was our 15th week calling Loveland RV Resort home (yep, the one on US-34, nestled in the foothills of the Rockies). Let me tell you, this week was one for the books. Grab your favorite beverage (beer, kombucha, or rocket fuel - your call), and come ride shotgun with me through this week’s highlights.

Fourteen Weeks In (And Still Smiling): Our Loveland RV Resort Chronicles
September 2025: Well, friends - Week 14 at Loveland RV Resort (Loveland, CO) is in the books, and it was one for the memory wall. Between dental drama, surprise parties, bike rides, and possible celebrity sightings, I’m fairly sure I deserve a nap (or maybe a medal). Here’s how it went down: The Crown That Couldn’t Hold On (But Did, Eventually) A few weeks ago, during a glorious Cuban dinner at Mark & Nancy’s, I inexplicably lost a tooth . More accurately: a crown from a lon
