News from the Dawn Treader and SunChaser

March 2025

March has been a very busy month for us but we managed to make a fun trip to Alabama.
We took two days to visit “Bama Henge” and the Barber Marina located near Orange Beach Alabama.
 
A great deal of the work was rebuilding our davits and repairing the last damage from Hurricane Francine.
This is not only the most time spent in a formal RV Park but the most time we have spent in one place since leaving Arizona in 2012!
We have now been in Mississippi for little over 3 years with only 2 major trips, Texas for our Honeymoon, and Last Christmas/New Years in Arizona.
 
Our immediate plans are to finish preparations to take Dawn Treader back to Florida to store inland at Glades boat storage in Moore Haven!
It’s painfully obvious we can’t leave lthe boat here while we travel in the summer months!
 
We needed to make one last trip to the farm as some mail accidently showed up there.
Elvis was excited to see his old friends he jumped up on the dash.
This is the first and so far only time he has done so.
Everyone benefitted from our stay at the farm, but we are very glad to turn that page in our life story.
 
Our little Bantam Silkie Rooster (Elvis) has truly become a pet and mascot.
He will stand by Dawn and “wine” for her to hold and pet him.
He is an amazing little bird with a personality that has endeared people everywhere we travel.
Since getting his pet carrier he has been welcomed at many of the restaurants we visit.
Two of the waitresses brings him a plate of chopped tomatoes and lettuce before we order.
To say Elvis has a fan club is an understatement!
He has his own Facebook Page and Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/972106277797304
