We are off to Honeymoon Island State Park onĀ  Florida’s west coast to visit our gurus, Bob and Jo Mellis. Bob, being a newspaper editor, worked his magic helping us for years to put out the annual Mountain Workshop brochure. This couple’s resilience and love of life are inspiring. They have been RV’ing for the last 10 years and lived aboard sailboats for the previous 10.
