Two dogs, two people, one RV. What could go wrong?
Just when you think life is getting kind of dull, the Michigan National Guard shows up to provide entertainment. As I wrote in an earlier post, we spent a few weeks in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan to socially distance near the water and soothe our pandemic-weary souls. Our first stop was in the town...

Lots of waterfowl and a real-life water rescue made last night's paddle a unique evening on the water
The glossy magazines and slick manufacturer brochures make the RV life look glamorous and easy. Push a button and voila! What was an 8 foot wide bus converts into a spacious 400-square foot condo complete with a jetted tub and a fireplace. It has a dishwasher! It has a 50-inch TV! It looks like an... Continue Reading →
We’ve been wintering in our usual haunts of Port St Joe and Apalachicola Florida. Winters in Northern Florida are nothing like sunny Southern Florida, but it’s usually lovely. This season weather has followed two patterns—sunny and windy (I’m talking sustained 12 mph with 20 mph gusts) or rainy and dreary. I’m not complaining, because it’s... Continue Reading →
When our neighbors Dave and Robin found out we were passing near their vacation hangout in Minocqua Wisconsin, they said we’d have to stop on our way.

No matter what the problem, MacGyver was able to create the very doohickey needed to do something like fix a jet engine so that the good guys can... Continue Reading →
I'd been widowed for a few years when I met him at the dog park. Long story short, he asked for my number. I gave him my email instead. I figured that was safer, because even an ax murderer could be a dog lover. I came home and had a note from him in my inbox. We... Continue Reading →
I am married to a Street Rodder. Among many traits, he is a man who looks beyond the vehicle he owns to the next best thing. It's reasonable to expect that we wouldn't keep the motor home we currently own for long. It is winter, and for several reasons we are unable to travel to... Continue Reading →
We're tooling down the highway on the trek back to Ohio, in the slow lane. We prefer seondary roads so when we're on two-lane highways we pull over when we can to let others with busy-ness on their minds roar by. I used to hate the idea of following some big camper rigged with bicycles and towing... Continue Reading →
