Lee and Karen Duquette,
The Two RV Gypsies: Full-Time RVers

at Suwannee Music Park

Live Oak, Florida
May 11 - 13, 2008

RVing is exciting and full of adventure.
Every day in a motorhome is a new experience.

The Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park is a vacation destination for 100's of thousands of people each year. Located on the banks of the Historic Suwannee River, this 800+ acre park is full of wildlife, and is covered in Spanish moss draped forest, bounding with activities from bird watching and canoeing to live concerts and performances to pickin' circles and music camps.
 
On May 12, 2008 the two RV Gypsies bicycled throughout the Suwannee Music Park, then took a canoe trip down the Suwannee River, (of course Lee had to sing the Suwannee River song) then they had a wonderful dinner with candlelight and wine, followed by a karaoke party at the park in the evening (no, the two RV Gypsies didn't sing). This park has live entertainment and big stars performing from time-to-time.
 
RV Gypsy life is definitely the way to go!

Most of the time here, there was no internet connection, and if there was connection, it was too slow to even bother with. A phone connection was also hard to achieve. No TV either. But, there were some great photo opportunities and lots of fun! - scroll down to see and enjoy!

Notice that it was off-season for campgrounds. The two RV Gypsies thought that it was wonderful to have space to themselves to take photos without other people in the picture.
