Just the two of us, a few free camping apps, a road atlas, and the destination of “go where ever it is warm.” It was mid-March and still freezing in Indiana, we both wanted to feel the warmth of the sun. Two hours of frantic packing later we were on the road. A bed frame is nice, but mattresses are the most essential item of a bed so we decided to take the minivan camper out as is. We had the kitchen mostly done, but the bed frame was just a design in our heads– but we did have the tri-fold mattresses. So there we were Thursday evening with four days off in front of us and a minivan camper half-built. He forgot so well that it took two co-workers and his boss making snide comments about “must be nice for people to have a long weekend” for him to look at the schedule and suddenly remember he had taken that time off. He forgot so quickly that he didn’t plan a thing for us to do during that time off. “Honey,” he announces, “It turns out I took Friday and Monday off for your birthday, want to go somewhere?” You see, my husband took those two days off months before my birthday and then forgot about them. Within seconds he bounds into the house with a huge grin on his face. The story begins on a Thursday afternoon with me sitting in our family room working on my other blog, Snail Pace Transformations, when suddenly I see my husband’s truck pull up in front of the house several hours earlier than usual.

Let’s start the story from the beginning. This was our first trip in our minivan camper and it was also our first time sleeping at a rest area, a Walmart and a truck stop–but I am getting ahead of myself. Our trip to Gulf Islands National Seashore near Pensacola, Florida was extremely last minute.
