Below: Karen Duquette and her friend Dottie Colston, who lives in Georgia (2004 and 2005 photos). It is so wonderful to have friends that live in different states to visit as they travel. They actually met at an Elvis Impersonation show, when they were seated together.

Below: The new yard of the two RV Gypsies at Horseshoe Trails Campground in Cleveland, Georgia in 2008. They are literally home wherever they park their RV as they travel because they no longer have a house or apartment anyplace. But they do pay for a campground spot in Broward County, Florida all year round whether they are there or not. That way they can always visit family in the winter, or in case of emergencies. This is the amazing life of RV travel.

Below: Long before becoming the two RV Gypsies, Lee and Karen Duquette went with their friend Phyllis White to Helen, Georgia to celebrate Labor-Day Week-end in 1986. (IF anyone knows how to reach Phyllis Hollifield White, please tell her about this website.) Karen would really love to hear from her. They used to be such good friends and lost touch with each other.

They also spent time with Phyllis in Morganton, Georgia in 1986

The two RV Gypsies then drove to Florida, visited friends at The Villages and in DeLand, then on to Broward County, Florida. NO photos were posted from this time frame. It was more about being with friends. Plus Karen Duquette had no idea that she would later be building this huge website with Flashback photos.
