Flats, Fans, and Fancy RVs: Our Week of Two Wheels, Four Wheels, and a Few Curveballs

Week four at Wekiva Falls proved that RV life is a delicate balance of plans… and the universe laughing gently at those plans. But honestly? It made for a pretty great week. The Great Bike Tire Saga of 2026 Sunday started with a noble mission: bike into town and gather supplies for another round of Holiday Ham: The Sequel . We rolled the bikes out… and immediately discovered Darren had a flat tire . Not just any flat tire. A rear wheel flat . If you know e-bikes, you know the

Week 3 at Wekiva Falls: Bikes, Beers, Manatees & a Karaoke Redemption Arc

If Week 3 at Wekiva Falls Resort had a theme, it would be: cardio, carbs, and questionable musical bravery. Let’s unpack it. Broncos, Booze & a Blast from the Snack Past We kicked things off with Broncos Sunday at Dan & Stacey’s house — because football always tastes better when someone else cooks. The evening featured: A “fancy” charcuterie spread courtesy of Swiss Colony (hello, 1987 holiday catalog nostalgia) A delicious pork loin dinner Our contribution: farm sweet corn

Week 2 at Wekiva Falls: Headaches, Heroic Heights & Huzzah for the New Year

If Week 1 at Wekiva Falls was our warm-up act, Week 2 felt like the full variety show — complete with drama, adventure, medieval costumes, and a shocking amount of hamburger soup. The Headache That Tried to Cancel My Social Life The week kicked off with one of those headaches that makes you question every life decision that led you to that moment. Still, we refused to surrender completely, so we hopped on the bikes for a short 10-mile loop around Wekiva Falls Resort . But the

Trails, A Tank Full of Fun & a Spoonful of Comfort — Our First Week at Wekiva Falls Resort

We made it to Wekiva Falls Resort in "beautiful" Sorrento, Florida , earlier than check-in — and guess what? Our site was already open ! Score. Kind of felt like we were VIPs… or maybe just ridiculously lucky. But the universe wasn’t done spoiling us — there was an early Christmas gift waiting in the mail room: “Spoonful of Comfort” from my dad & step-mom. (Seriously, thanks — that cozy goodness was yum). So we didn’t waste a minute. We stashed the goodies, set up just the

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
