Two dogs, two people, one RV. What could go wrong?
I've mentioned before that dogs are ubiquitous among RV travelers. To be sure you will also find cats, birds, ferrets, guinea pigs, real pigs and all manner of other critters cruising the highways with their owners, but the predominant companion animal is the canine. Traveling with a dog or any animal requires infinite patience on the part... Continue Reading →
Red Bay Alabama. Ever heard of it? Neither had I. Red Bay teeters on the border of Alabama and Mississippi, 2 1/2 hours from Memphis and an hour from Florence. It is the birthplace of Tiffin Motor Homes and Tammy Wynette. Tiffin RV owners come from near and far to Red Bay for repairs and... Continue Reading →
Zion National Park. It's sufficient to say that the canyon is beautiful beyond imagination. Once you get over the shock and awe of the scenery, the people and the place come into focus. This part of Utah is very rural, and towns are small with limited services. We chose to stay in the town of... Continue Reading →
On Monday we left Moab and headed for Hurricane. Hurricane (pronounced HUR-ken) is a small town about 20 miles east of Zion National Park. This story isn't about the town or Zion though, it's about how a little inattentiveness can really mess things up. Hurricane is about a five to six hour drive from Moab,... 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 →
We spent a few days in the Black Hills seeing the sights, most notably Rushmore and Crazy Horse memorials. We stayed at the Whispering Pines campground near Silver City, SD. The campground is situated nicely off the main highway, and has a homey quietness that we enjoy. Harley and Lisa own the place, and live... Continue Reading →
I am usually optimistic, as evidenced by being a lifetime Cleveland sports fan. To be fair the Cavs have done very well of late, but the Browns and the Indians are a life lesson in high hopes and heartbreak. This story is not about Cleveland teams and life's disappointments, it's about two nights broken down... Continue Reading →
We didn't intend to go very far this first day, and as you will later read that turned out to be a fortunate decision. We took the 77-south corridor through West Virginia, a route I've taken many times over the years on the way to the beautiful forests of West Virginia and other places. Each... Continue Reading →
The motorhome search is over! We're the proud owners of a new (to us) Tiffin motorhome. It's considerably larger than our former coach, with more slides, bells and whistles and switches. My 6'3 husband now has a comfortable feeling of headroom, and there are enough drawers for all our stuff. Think Motel 6 versus Embassy... Continue Reading →
There's not much to see at the moment, but thanks for stopping by. We're getting ready to take off with our dogs with a mission of seeing as much of the US and Canada as one can do without crossing the ocean (Sorry, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and Guam). I've learned that the presence of a... Continue Reading →
