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 →
Travel Day: We got up at 6:00 a.m. and headed out from Seven Points Campground, Hermitage, TN, as soon as we were ready. We knew there was construction on West I-40 around Nashville downtown. Every time we went that way, the traffic would be stopped, no matter what time. Even early on Saturday morning and... Continue Reading →
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 →

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 →
Napanoch, NY has the fascinating Wawarsing Historical Society and Knife Museum. We saw it one day as we drove past. It is in an old school house. As we walked up to the door we were greeted by an older man.This place is unique in that the 2 large rooms have these older men as... Continue Reading →
West Point Military Academy. OH boy, it was crazy that nothing I looked up to do around this entire area listed this place! We knew of it but not where it is located. So glad my Uncle Jim mentioned it when we told him where we are staying. The Great Chain was used across the... Continue Reading →
