Go, See, Do, Experience!
When you hear the name Branson, Missouri, what do you think of? For us it is Silver Dollar City. This 1800s theme park is our favorite. Kevin grew up coming here most every year and he and I came here quite a bit when we lived in Missouri. Later we still would make it here... Continue Reading →
We got to my uncle and aunt’s house around 9:30 a.m. for another day of adventure. They drove us in their car to downtown Dallas to The 6th Floor Museum. I had been here with my family when I was young. It is the Texas School Book Depository, where Lee Harvey Oswald shot President John... Continue Reading →
George W Bush Presidential Center is on Southern Methodist University campus in Dallas, Texas. Lots of parking spaces since we were there about 1/2 hour after it opened. The building is on ground level with two big squares on each side with a center hall that has a ceiling that is second story tall and... Continue Reading →
The drive to Clark County Shooting Complex, Las Vegas, Nevada was nice. There is a good campground here. Right in front of us is the shotgun range. So fun to watch. The shooting complex is only about 9 minutes from my cataract surgeon’s office and hospital. This made it easy for my follow up and... Continue Reading →
I got out my new Pampered Chef Pastry Mat and made a new recipe - tortillas. As I was preparing, I was curious about the difference between the Flatbread recipe I have and this new tortilla recipe. What is the difference, besides the thickness? Turns out not much. HA While the tortilla uses water, the... Continue Reading →
I thought it would be fun to check out Chloride, Arizona. Autio (footnote 1) said it has the longest continuing post office in Arizona. The area had a big silver mine and had over 5000 people living here. It declined when people went off to fight the war. There are people still living here... Continue Reading →

Thanksgiving Week we had the privilege of camping with our friends, Wendi and Bob, and his parents. What a treat for us, as they are very fun people. Rain Spirit RV, in Clarkdale, Arizona, is where they picked. We were able to camp in sites next to each other so going back and forth to... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 →
