Giant-Sized Checkers, Thousand Trails Orlando, Clermont, FL 12/23 My brother said we have a package coming from Amazon so we walked to the campground clubhouse here at Thousand... Continue Reading →
How do we pick where to travel? Funny story: we picked this next place after we watched The History Channel about huge bridges. We learned about a bridge that is the longest bridge over water in the whole world - 23.85 miles. It is over Lake Pontchartrain, Louisiana, from New Orleans to Mandeville. We wanted...

Driving from Kansas City, Missouri to Branson, Missouri brought back a lot of memories. Why? The reason for us to go to Branson is to enjoy Silver Dollar City. It is a theme park set in the 1880s. It has been going for 63 years. The workers and volunteers all wear period costumes. Kevin grew... Continue Reading →
Broken kitchen slide! We drove to what seemed like the other end of the earth to Ace Hardware for some parts. I was looking down and told Kevin we would exit to the right at exit #1. I look up and he is getting in the middle lane. “Did you not hear me say right... Continue Reading →

3 travel days, 1213 miles. Where were we headed? South! (Keep reading for why.) We didn’t want to worry about waking up too early so we set the alarm for 6:30am. Pulled out of Seaside Campground in Oregon just before 7:30am. I filled the cooler, without ice, with snacks of crackers, Tillamook cheese curds, licorice,... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 →
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 →
