The Two RV Gypsies: Full-Time RVers
enjoyed Christmas with family in Florida

Candy cane divider bar

Christmas tree with lightsThe two RV Gypsies enjoyed Christmas with family and friends in 2008.
Because they live full-time in an RV, they put their tree on top of the steering wheel.
The decorations are souvenirs bought when traveling. Karen Duquette made the Angel.
(note: Eventually as they started traveling, usually 9 months a year, they quickly outgrew this tree).

Below: The Christmas boat parade in Fort Lauderdale, Florida - a yearly event. The few photos Karen Duquette took did not come out very well, but the two RV Gypsies loved the parade anyway. Boats of any size could register and participate, even canoes and paddle boards. Santa Claus is always on the last boat. Besides the decorations, many boats have music, dancers, or just major party-goers on board.

Below: Karen Duquette is sometimes Mrs. Claus or sometimes an elf at parties, but here in 2008, she dressed as a Christmas tree - well, sort of. As the years passed, the costumes got much better.
