Kelli & Anne talk about their trip to Rehoboth Beach & the epic RV road trip with besties Jon & Steve as they move from Nyack to Denver!

Join Anne & Kelli for their 273rd episode of #ilovemywife podcast recorded from HOME!!! They start the show by talking about Anne’s birthday night that included a massive downpour in Times Square, a lovely dinner at Delos and finally seeing The Lost Boys on Broadway. Overall, it was a lovely celebration.

They next about their trip to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware for Anne’s 13th season performing at Blue Moon. She talks about how she was introduced to the owners Tim & Randy by Cashetta, an incredible drag queen that she met on an RSVP Cruise and how she began that journey with her Musical Director Nate Buccieri. They were excited to get extra time this year so they headed down to stay with their friends Paul and Dennis at their beautiful home. Hear about all of the fun days and nights they spent together that included a cocktail party and dinner at their country club, lunch at Blue Coast and outlet mall shopping, Aqua Bar and dinner at Jam, a beach day at Poodle Beach that included special sandwiches made by Dennis, a cocktail party/dinner hosted at the house, a fun lunch with old friends from NYC piano bar days and an annual dinner at Salt Air that included their friends Jeff & Carlos and Allen & Don. Anne’s show was a huge success and was sold out! They had to get up early the next day to drive back to NY to get ready for what was coming next….

After arriving home, they unpacked, did some quick laundry and repacked to head to their friend Jon & Steve’s house to board an RV they rented to drive across country for their move to Denver. They loaded up the house plants into the shower, filled the fridge and cabinets with food and drinks, got Jon & Steve’s 11 yr old son Jackson all settled in and their 2 dogs, Tito and Mimosa and their friend Stephanie and they hit the road. The entire drive would take 3 days and they would cross 9 states from NY to CO. There were hilarious stories that included broken window shades that were propped up by paper towels, a refrigerator that got bounced around so much that every time they opened it everything fell out, a table that constantly fell off the track including once that spilled red wine all over Anne & Kelli. Hear about where they stopped for the nights, family meetups along the way, 90’s country singalongs, 50 ears of corn acquired along the way that filled the bed on the RV, and creating memories to help move their best friends into the next chapter of their lives.

They actually recorded a little segment as they began the last leg of the journey direct from the RV. Hear what each person thought was memorable from the trip in their own words.

Eventually they made it to Denver! They spent one night with Steve’s sister Shelley & her husband Randy and the next day they helped Jon & Steve move into their apartment. As they headed off to buy furniture for the new place, they all shared one last lunch together! Next, Kelli and Anne headed to their friend James & Alex’s house for a birthday party and for one more overnight. They had a great time celebrating and meeting all of their Denver friends. The next day the headed to Denver airport and headed home to JFK. Kelli has been battling back pain, so when they arrived, she grabbed a ride on a cart that took them all the way from the farthest gate at Terminal 4 direct to the baggage claim! Total score!

Once they were home, they were both so exhausted that Anne actually fell asleep on the couch. They underestimated the amount of energy it took to go from one trip direct to the RV and it definitely showed itself with total exhaustion. They did unpack, do lots of laundry AND podcasted! They also got a visit from their son Blake, daughter-in-law Teresa and baby Anthony! It was so good to see them! They also planned a dinner in NYC to see their daughter Vivi and a lunch with Anne’s Mom. They again started packing to leave for Seattle and board an Alaska Cruise that is Kelli’s R Family trip for the summer and Anne is headlining on Celebrity Edge. Hear all about that trip on the next episode!
