A Taste of Belgium & Customer Service

I have been off the last three days from work and have enjoyed it; however, I am ready to go back this evening. Yesterday was a nice sunny day here and I was able to run errands and have lunch with Lee. We ate at A Taste of Belgium and enjoyed some delicious waffles.


Seasonal Pumpkin Waffle

Chicken and Waffle

Pesto Cream Mussels

One thing I miss terribly is the friendly people & great customer service in NC, SC, VA, & WV. When you ask someone a question or try to make conversation, you are lucky if you get a one word response. Yesterday, I felt like Julia Roberts going shopping on Rodeo Drive in Pretty Woman.

The staff in most places treat you like you are an inconvenience or not worth their time. Don’t get me wrong, I have met some nice people at work and the campground, but I am definitely not in the South!


I found a great article about whether Kentucky, and other states, is are actually in the South. What do you consider the South?

Sorry, Your State is Not the South https://www.theringer.com/pop-culture/2017/8/21/16169944/sorry-your-state-is-not-southern-south-package

Kentucky, when looking down from the North, is very Southern. That’s what you call shaping a calendar year around a 1.25-mile horse race; it’s also the term for sporting bowties and seersucker suits even without it being the Derby: Southern. There’s the fried chicken, the Confederate statues, the hospitality, the bigotry, an unmistakable twang, and a most iconic meal made of of gravy, toast, and meat layered upon fried, fattier meat. But Kentucky is not the South.

Hi! I am Christi, a full-time RV traveller since August 2021. I have always loved to travel, but COVID-19 put a stop to that. I was fast approaching 50, my condo was being placed up for sale and I was ready for a major change. Originally from a tiny town in rural Southwest Virginia, I am the mother to one son and a rescue Shih Tzu, Cappy. For the last 20 years, I worked in public library systems around the Charlotte & Myrtle Beach areas. I met some amazing people and made great friends along the way. Follow along on my adventures as I travel the US. I hope that our paths will cross one day!

  3. Wow! Very interesting hearing about our close neighbors Kentucky. Glad we live in NC and glad you’re only there for a short time. Hope Colorado is a better experience. So happy you have good neighbors at the campground! While traveling through the different states, I’m sure you will come across many different places and people.
    Looking forward to hearing more!!
