Lost Dutchman State Park Campground, Apache Junction, Arizona - I was so excited to go there. We drove through the campground back in 2021 when we flew down here to look for a homebase. I have tried to get reservations but they are always filled up. Finally, 6 months ago when the booking window opened,... Continue Reading →
An Added Note To You, Quilting, Food, & Sedona, AZ
I sewed a 55-inch table topper quilt for the fall. You know, in HOWE (footnote 1) our dining table isn’t that big! HAHA This was a kit that I got while shopping with my friend, Bridget, in Spearfish, SD. I rarely make quilts from kits but this one caught my eye. It will be a... Continue Reading →

Quilt Gardens, RV Museum, New Friends In Indiana
“Quilt Gardens along the Heritage Trail.” I don’t remember ever hearing about Quilt Gardens. It is a quilt pattern block but done in flowers.

Lincoln’s Birthplace, Quilting, And The Bank, KY/TN

Caves, Good Food, and Dynamite!
It is funny, but true…when you are packing up to leave, it seems like everyone around you comes and talks. We have read other people say this and it is true for us as well. The guy next to us, Kevin had briefly chatted with the other day. He has a motorhome here. He is... Continue Reading →
Casa Grande, Arizona
We were surprised how big Casa Grande, Arizona, is. Even has an Olive Garden! HA Manufacturing is huge in this area and it is neat to see the buildings and names and think about what is being made inside. This campground, Encore Fiesta Grande, is really nice. Wide streets, wide sites with parking for truck... Continue Reading →

We were the only ones leaving the RV camping spots at the SARA Park rodeo ground, Lake Havasu, AZ, as campers can stay for the... Continue Reading →
