Gummy Hotdog, Savannah's Candy Kitchen, Charleston Market Street

-

On our most recent trip to the beautiful and historic city of  Charleston South, Carolina, we stopped by Savannah's Candy Kitchen. Savannah's is located on the corner of Market and East Bay, and it is the place to be if you have a sweet tooth. While there, my son found something truly bizarre that my wife and I had never seen before: a gummy hotdog! As you can see in the picture, everything on this dog is gummy. Don't worry, the gummy mustard, ketchup, and pickle's do not taste like the real things. After doing a search on Amazon, I realized that this bizarre sweet treat, as well as a gummy taco, are available on Amazon. Click the image or the link below to check the price.


I cannot end this post without giving a shout out to Savannah's Kitchen. The store was very clean and the workers were friendly. If you are in the Charleston area and are in need of something sweet, you have to try the chocolate and caramel Gophers. They are delicious!

Voyager Deep-sea Fishing Disaster - Must Read!

No trip to the coast is complete without a party boat deep-sea fishing trip. If you have never been deep-sea fishing or if you have a trip planned, I highly recommend Deep-sea Fishing Tips for Beginners . You will find some helpful tips to save you time, money, and frustration. While searching the various options for deep-sea fishing charters in the North Myrtle Beach area, I came across Voyager Deep-sea Fishingand Dolphin Cruises  located in North Myrtle Beach. The website is very well designed and it offers good information about what to expect on your trip. Unfortunately, this is where the good ends. If you read to the end, you will see that this trip gets progressively worse. I knew that the crew did not expect a big day when I saw that they only had two Dollar-Tree-sized laundry baskets and slightly more ice than large McDonald's Coke! Voyager is located at Dock Holiday’s Marina , which is further inland than some of the other fishing charters. I knew this when I booked the ...

We Caught A Shark! - Little River Deep-sea Fishing, North Myrtle Beach

-
Image
We showed up at  Calabash Marina  on the morning of our deep-sea fishing Excursion. They asked that we arrive 30 minutes early so breakfast came from a drive-thru window. The check-in process was flawless, since I had our reservations printed, it only took a few minutes to get us checked in. Once checked in, we boarded the Hurricane II where we were greeted by one of the crew members. He recognized that we had a young fisherman with us, so he offered us a spot in his section of the boat. He assured us that he would help my son out as needed, which was nice because I was trying to figure things out for myself. Since this was our first deep-sea fishing excursion, we opted for the half-day trip. The captain did a wonderful job, he kept us on fish all morning and we moved to a new location each time it slowed down. All of the deckhands were  knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. In addition to being able to i dentify many of the different fish s...

Jubilee Deep Sea Fishing Review: Panama City, FL

-
Image
Deep-sea fishing during our fall vacation is quickly becoming a family tradition. This past fall, we spent a week in Panama City Beach, Florida, and the fishing did not disappoint. After doing our research, we settled on Jubilee Deep-Sea Fishing , and the entire experience was top-notch. The fishing was great, the crew was friendly, and the boat was spotless! Getting Started We stuck with our tried-and-true plan: grabbing biscuits and coffee from the McDonald's drive-thru. We arrived at the dock on time, and the check-in process was seamless. Prior to boarding the Jubilee —a 90-foot party boat—the captain gathered everyone together. This was the first time we’d had a pre-trip briefing like this, and I really liked it. He covered safety instructions, mentioned the onboard concessions, and gave us an update on sea conditions. Based on his report, I only took a quarter of a Dramamine and felt totally fine the entire trip. A Family-Friendly Atmosphere The captain also emphasized that J...

30 ft. Golden Statue, Michelangelo’s David, Louisville, KY

-
Image
Michelangelo’s David is one of the most famous sculptures of all time. When you drive by the massive golden replica located in Louisville Kentucky you will immediately recognize it. My 8-year-old son however, did not recognize the artwork but got a kick out of seeing this huge naked sculpture. The statue is an impressive 30 ft. tall and stands proudly at the corner of South 7th and West Main. While modesty is of little concern, on this visit, someone had taken a moment to ensure that the statue was portrayed as socially responsible. As you can see in the picture, David is wearing his Mask. Could the sculpture be wearing a speedo when you visit? Who knows?  Thanks for reading please like, share, and follow on Facebook.

ICE! at Gaylord Opryland: A Nashville Holiday Tradition

-
Image
Year after year, the Gaylord Opryland Hotel in Nashville offers an incredible Christmas experience. Between the stunning decorations and the endless activities, it truly is a winter wonderland. Every few years, we make a point to visit the ICE! exhibit and spend the evening wandering through the hotel’s festive displays. One of our first experiences at ICE! was the Peanuts themed exhibit back in 2017. It was amazing to see larger-than-life ice sculptures of Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Lucy, and the rest of the gang. This year, the exhibit featured the holiday classic, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer . The most impressive sculpture, in my opinion, was the monstrous Abominable Snow Monster, which stood roughly 18 feet tall! Another favorite was the scene depicting Santa in his sleigh, pulled by his team of reindeer with Rudolph leading the way. Altogether, it takes about 30 to 45 minutes to walk through the exhibit at a leisurely pace—including a few trips down the signature ice slides! Pr...

Miles Through Time, Car Museum and Antique Store

-
Image
If you are searching for info and reviews about Miles Through Time , there is a good chance you’re interested in the automotive museum. This hidden gem boasts a wide variety of vintage machinery: Model T Fords, hot rods, military vehicles, race cars, and motorcycles. There is even a massive collection of vintage pedal cars and model kits if you are into nostalgic toys. At the start of the tour, many of the vehicles are set within period-accurate scenes. You’ll walk past a general store, a barber shop, and even a jail while taking in an impressive line of Model Ts. With each step, it feels as if you are literally taking a stroll through time. It’s a fantastic concept, and I hope the owners continue to expand on these immersive displays. Whether you’re looking for a trip down memory lane or a glimpse into the past, plan to spend at least an hour here. It took us a bit longer than that, but since it is a self-guided tour, we felt no rush to leave. While I can’t recall the exact admission...

Freeport Cafe Review, Freeport Florida, Delicious Burger!

-
Image
If you find yourself cruising about 30 minutes outside of Panama City Beach, there is a local treasure you shouldn’t miss. Freeport Cafe is the ultimate pitstop to grab a legendary burger—and since it’s a short drive from the coast, you’ll actually have time to let it settle before hitting the sand. First Impressions (Why You Should Stop) To be completely honest? The building is a total dive. It’s small, a bit weathered, and looks like the kind of place you might drive past without a second thought. In fact, if we hadn't been absolutely starving, we might have kept right on going. The moment you step inside, the vibe shifts completely. The interior is clean, inviting, and decorated with a cozy touch that makes you feel instantly welcome. But the real giveaway that you’re in the right place? The smell. It hits you immediately—the unmistakable aroma of a grill doing exactly what it was meant to do. This cafe is clearly a neighborhood favorite. As we waited for our food, we watched o...

Peaches Corner, Famous Footlong Hot dogs, Myrtle Beach Boardwalk, Disaster

-
Image
We were in Myrtle Beach during our son's fall break. We had great weather the entire trip, some days were even quite hot for the time of year. We stayed in North Myrtle for the trip and we had planned to spend one afternoon walking the boardwalk. Since we would be on the boardwalk, we looked forward to eating at one of the local nostalgic restaurants. When we walked up to Peaches Corner, we immediately saw the huge "Famous Footlong Hot Dogs" sign. This night was destined to be hot-dog night for our family. My son and I love hotdogs. I'd like to think that I am a hot dog connoisseur, if there is such. Some of the best dogs I have had come from Crickets in Smithfield, NC. I cannot mention hot dogs without mentioning The Varsity in Atlanta, GA. I like a variety of dogs, but one of my favorites is the classic chili dog. If your in Atlanta, The Varsity is a great place to have one.  In order to create the perfect chili dog: you must start with a quality dog, next you add a...
