Travel Day to Yuma, Arizona. We were surprised there wasn’t a lot of traffic. We thought we would see a ton of RVs heading south. Just south of Quartzsite was all new area to us. It was fun to see the BLM where people are boondocking. (Boondocking is camping with no hook ups to water,... Continue Reading →
How Much Money On Those Walls?
Kevin was on the phone the next morning to find someone to come look at the bedroom slide on HOWE (footnote 1) and see what needed to be done to fix it. (That story was posted last Friday.) He found one that could come that day. The guy did and Kevin felt he is knowledgable... Continue Reading →
Wylie, TX -Quilting, Ham Radio, Food, Friends, & Family

Visiting Friends & Cousins In Nashville, TN
We had done and seen all we wanted to in the entire area of Knoxville and Great Smoky Mountains National Park and we still had a full Saturday to spend. Well, I thought the other day, we should hop on over to Kentucky, you know, so we can get the state sticker for our map.... Continue Reading →

You’re Going To Learn A Lot! Philadelphia & Later A Pretzel Tour
We left early in the morning for our 1-1/2 hour drive east to Philadelphia and got there about 8:30 a.m. We saw an underground parking garage under the Independence Visitor Center but it looked like a sharp turn at the bottom. Our truck is a Ram 3500, king cab, with long bed. We kept driving,... Continue Reading →
Amish & Quilt Auction, Hershey, & Valley Forge, PA
Valley Forge National Historic Park. Crazy thing about this: don’t put into GPS maps to see where “Valley Forge” is. Apparently it is a town south and west of us and less than 1/2 hour from our campground in Manheim, PA. Valley Forge, where George Washington and the army camped for 6 months during 1777-1778,...

We purchased some lettuce, kale, cucumbers, mini peppers - including purple ones, and onions. At home (footnote 1)... Continue Reading →

They say it is the first and largest electric railway museum in the world. Over 200 different railway things, trolleys, trains, buses, etc. There was a trolley ride in just a... Continue Reading →
