My cousin Jennette is the one who got me started sewing quilts in 2020. She is talented in so many ways and she loves to teach others who want to learn. We started sewing together once a month and invited others to join. Our group grew to about 10 ladies and soon we were meeting... Continue Reading →
Oregon’s Coast At Newport
We headed to Oregon’s Pacific Ocean coast. We had reservations at Whaler’s Rest Campground which is in South Beach, just a few miles south of Newport. Check in was nice and easy; the lady was very helpful. She suggested to look at sites 58 or 59 because she knew Starlink (Footnote 1) works there. Starlink's... Continue Reading →
What Is Moochdocking? :)
At Southern Oregon RV Park, Kevin and I walked to the campground office and bought our 3rd bundle of firewood. It is nice to have a few days of good weather for a campfire. Later that afternoon Kevin started the fire so we would have coals for packets. This time we tried a new recipe... Continue Reading →
How An Entire Downtown Ended Up A National Landmark in Oregon.
We drove through Jacksonville which is about 15 miles west of Southern Oregon RV Park in Central Point, Oregon. The downtown looks really old and I wondered if the buildings were original. We think we might come back here another day. We then drove Hwy 238 about half hour north to Grants Pass. The drive... Continue Reading →
Sharing A Week In Our Traveling Full-Time Life! :)
Washer and dryer - two of my favorite things in our 2022 Alliance Avenue 5th Wheel. Cold, down in the 30s overnight mid-April at Southern Oregon RV Park in Central Point. We didn’t feel cold inside HOWE (our 5th wheel, "Home On WhEels"). One morning we walked to the campground laundry. One of my favorite... Continue Reading →

Who Is Hungry? Come And Get It! Nicolaus, CA 04/23 For dinner one evening, Kevin cooked green chili smashburgers (recipe below) on the Blackstone Griddle. Oh, it was so good! I texted pictures of him cooking to my sister and brother. My brother wondered what the green stuff was. At first I thought he was... Continue Reading →
Apple Park, Computer Museum, A Boat & Food Prices! Oh, & A RECIPE!
Before we got evacuated on March 10, we had reservations for March 26-April 16 at Morgan Hill, CA. Well, that one was also still closed due to flooding so we had to make other plans for those three weeks. Morgan Hill is close to San Jose and we thought we would have time to explore...

A Buoy, Garlic, Lighthouse, And Part Of The Donner Party.
After walking around Monterey, California (see last week's post) we drove a few miles to Point Pinos Lighthouse. It was built and lit in 1855. Point Pinos Lighthouse, Pacific Grove, CA 03/23 The light is on top of the house not a separate tower. The tour closed in about 15 minutes when we got there.... Continue Reading →
San Diego, Part 2. Lighthouse & A Dessert Cart!
I Loved Taking This Photo Of Point Loma Lighthouse! San Diego, CA 02/23 I have always liked lighthouses but have seen very few. I just finished the book, “Keepers of the Light” about Point Conception Lighthouse which is near Santa Barbara. Visitors aren’t allowed on the property there so we didn’t see it when we...

San Diego, Part 1 (Catchy Title, Right!)
Look At Each Person & See How They Are Enjoying This Day! San Diego, CA 02/23 I really like maps! In fact, when we drive, I often have the map on my iPad plus the paper map out as I follow along. 🙂 For Christmas, Kevin gave me a Garmin RV 1090 GPS (*see note... Continue Reading →
