Rosie and I played in the office and at the spring. She loves to swim. I only like to get my feet wet. Too much bother having all that wet hair to take care of.
4 Must Have Travel Games This Summer
If you are heading out on the open road this summer and are always trying to come up with the next best game for your kids to play, we have a few ideas for you.
If you are on your way to visit us at Suwanee River, even better! We can’t wait to see you this summer.
Travel Bingo – this themed game is great for time spent on the road. It keeps your kids focused on the trip, and not on how many minutes till they get to the destination.
This game will have road signs and other common items that people will see while on the road.
Movie and Name Games – this will test your and your children’s knowledge of pop culture. You will start by naming a movie for example “Finding Nemo” and then the next person would name a movie that starts with the last letter of the previous movie so a correct answer would be “Oliver and Company”.
You can do the same thing with celebrity names and go on for hours on end.
KanJam – this will get everyone up and out of the lawn chairs and out of the RV. If you have not heard of this game, it is so easy to setup – there are two goals and a Frisbee. The objective of the game is to score 21 points by throwing the Frisbee into the goals. Check out KanJam’s website or watch this video:
Farkle – if you are faced with a rainy day or a cold night and are looking for something that everyone will enjoy indoors, you should try Farkle, it is a dice game where the goal is to be the first player to get 10,000 points. Buy Farkle for your trip now.

Looking To Vacation During Spring Break? Head out to the Suwannee River Rendezvous
With the spring semester just about half-way over, that means spring break isn’t too far away.
During this time, many will simply head home for some rest and relaxation while others will be looking to get away and enjoy themselves.
If you are a part of the latter, then the Suwannee River Rendezvous might be just what you’re looking for.
Now, at first, heading out to the wilderness might not be the first choice for college students but we offer a wide variety of fun activities that are sure to keep you and your friends more than entertained.
If you want to hit the water, we offer canoe and kayak rentals that will allow you to travel along the river. While on the river, you will be able to take in all of the beautiful sights that surround it.
There is also a great deal of wildlife around the river as well-meaning you might be able to get a glimpse of some of the animals that call the area home.
We also offer fishing for anyone looking for something more adventurous during their break.
While on the boat you will have an opportunity to catch numerous different fish including Large Mouth Bass, Suwannee Bass, Mullet, Bream and Channel Catfish.
We also offer affordable lodging as well. Whereas booking a hotel in tropical location might cost an arm and a leg, our pricing won’t cause you to break the bank just for a little fun on spring break. This will allow you more money for extra activities will on break, creating an overall more memorable experience.

With summer not too far away, many families will be hitting the road in their RV for a nice vacation.
It could truly be a great time but if you don’t come prepared your trip might turn into quite the nightmare.
Bedding
Depending on the RV you’re traveling in will depend on what kind of bedding you bring. If it is strictly for traveling, then you will need a sleeping back and even a tent to sleep in. However, if it comes equipped with a bed, then a few sets of sheets should be more than enough.
Cooking Equipment
Again, this depends on what kind of RV you have, but some pots and pans should be able to handle anything you’re going to cook no matter where you do it. Be sure to bring along utensils like can openers and tongs also. If you can’t eat everything you’re bringing with your hands then bring along enough forks, spoons, and knives to last the trip.
Entertainment
Even though it’s a vacation, the travel can become quite redundant and boring after a while. So bringing along items such as board games and sports equipment will help keep things fun and exciting.
Clothing
If you’re traveling the country, be sure to have clothing for any situation you may encounter. Also, be sure to bring enough to last the whole trip as well because running out of fresh clothes will not be fun for you or your fellow travelers.
RV Essentials
Just as if you were traveling by car, it would be smart to bring some automotive essentials with you just in case. Bring a tire gauge, jumper cables, and tools such as wrenches or screwdrivers because out on the road anything could happen.

Charlie’s post November 22,2015
Jacques Pierre came to visit me. He is the biggest friend I have. He let me play with him for a little bit but he didn’t like me hanging on his ear.
I have a lot of fun in the dog park. Pepper and I played several times. She knows how to play and I let her get the best of me. Next time she comes I will be a lot bigger than her.
Bocephus had a hard name for mom to spell and say. I had no trouble at all with his name. He had really cool eyes too.
Ferguson and I played and played. He is 9 months old and he knows how to play. Mom was all worn out just watching.
Introducing…
The Vagabond View: 11-2015
“A Wanderer’s reflections and commentary on the Rendezvous Experience; Happenings, interesting people, the local color and splendor of this magical place”.
Vag – a – bond: noun: A person, usually without a permanent home, who wanders carefree from place to place.
Allow me to introduce myself; I’m Dave Pearson, a recent arrival here at the Suwannee River Rendezvous. As a full-time RV’er, writer and musician I was so taken by this special place that I decided to stick around for a while. Needless to say, my first impressions were validated in the ensuing days. The days melted into months as I was seduced by the serene surroundings, wonderful people and many diversions. This prompted me to seek Susie’s blessing for creating a website Blog wherein I could share my observations and experiences with our Web visitors.
Future entries will include pictures and dialog capturing the unique character of not only the physical experience, but more importantly, the diverse and colorful folks that invariably become part of Frank, Susie & Charlie’s growing “family”.
With the fall season upon us, I’m off to capture and share some of this splendor with you all in my next post!!
Till then…Cheers!

Biscuit was really really big and I wanted to play really really bad. I even begged his dad to let me play with him. I promised to be gentle.
I took Knight on a walk and then we played with my toys. He liked my bear. I can’t wait for him to come back.
Brinkley was so polite. Mom wants me to be like him. Calm, quiet,… I told her it was going to be a while so she better be patient.
Ginger loves to swim in the spring. I think her new hair cut makes her go faster.
Charlie Jr. 1st post
Hi, I’m Charlie Jr. I moved in and took control of the place last week. Didn’t take much as I’m a cute dude. I had guests my very first weekend. Rango, a black lab, same birthday, how cool is that. We got together several times over the weekend and we had fun. Older dogs just don’t get it.
Plan on a 2015 Winter Camping Getaway
It’s depressing to think that the summer is almost over. We’re already in the first week of August! Before long, the crisp winds of autumn will be sweeping over your body like a marching band of multi-colored spiders. Your body will tingle, but your heart will know that any opportunity to extract the resources of summer have long passed you by – and that’s always a blow to the soul. Not something that will propel you into winter. Even writing (or reading) that word gives us headaches.
Thankfully, Suwannee River Rendezvous is located in Florida, which means that we get to avoid the avalanches of cold so many of you have to struggle with. But statistics show that winter is expected to come early and more furious than in years past. You might as well enjoy the rest of the summer when you have the chance, and that includes hopping in your RV and seeing the country – it’s what all the baby boomers and adventuresome seniors are doing, which are behind the biggest resurgence in RV sales since the early 1990s.
Jackie Crosby of Fredericksburg.com writes, “The skyrocketing sales are fueled by the 10,000 or so baby boomers who are turning 65 every day, plus a large band of 50-somethings who are planning for an active or early retirement.” Basically, these people are determined to experience the romance and grandeur of America, but have no interest in camping. We can’t blame them, as camping isn’t for everyone – but since we encourage the outdoors by any means necessary, RV-ing it up is the only option for some people!
Jeff Nobbe, general manager at Shorewood RV Center in Anoka, Minnesota sums it up best: “People are retiring and living more for today than the future. They weren’t doing that before. They were buying lake places before.” This is most certainly an exciting trend to see! Experience America this summer! You don’t have much time left!
