Downsizing a Storage Unit

The writer, Stevie and Robert traveled from Florida to Tennessee, primarily to clear a Gainesville storage unit maintained for almost a decade. The family aimed to keep three boxes because their van carried three people and two wheelchairs. The writer ultimately discarded a dumpster-full of childhood belongings, donating a baseball card collection and 100 or more Hot Wheels cars to Goodwill. The experience was described as emotional and humbling.

Florida and Knoxville Highlights

After Gainesville, the group spent several days in St. Augustine with Stevie’s brother, visiting the city’s historic charm and nearby Vilano Beach. A first visit to Ripley’s Believe It Or Not included a memorable Bigfoot exhibit; the writer connected the figure with Florida’s local Skunk Ape legend. In Knoxville, Stevie drew on accessible outdoor activities she and Robert had enjoyed, and the newsletter promised more wheelchair-friendly recreation coverage.

Morocco Group Trip Details

The writer said the first Wheelchair Travel Group Trip to Morocco had been a tremendous success and announced another tour scheduled for January 22–31, 2027. The 10-day itinerary is intended to cover culture, history, art, architecture and gastronomy in Casablanca, Marrakesh and Essaouira. The complete itinerary was scheduled for release on Wednesday, July 22, exclusively to paid members, who received a five-day private booking window. Free subscribers could book from Monday, July 27 if spaces remained.
