Edison's Winter "Cottage"
The View from the Porch to the River
Henry Ford
Ford's Guest House
The Banyon Tree (Fig Tree)
The story began with a 5-week journey in a 1997 RV, from Richmond, Va to Utah and back, July 23 through August 27, 2011. The next step included the sale of that RV and the purchase of a larger, classier RV we call Princess. Now we have changed RVs again. We sold the Princess to a family of 5, and purchased a 2017 Class C, smaller than the Princess but some better features as well as some limitations storage wise. And so our adventures continue.

Edison & Ford Winter Estates
Friday the four of us went to Fort Myers to visit the Edison & Ford Estates along the Caloosahatchee River. The audio tour is $25 per person but includes both estates and a replica of Edison's Laboratory, along with local flowers and plants that are available for purchase. We spent more than 2 hours there, then walked to Pinchers Restaurant for a late lunch on the water before heading home to rescue our dogs from being cooped up all day.
