Jeeping in Southwestern Utah
What happens when you take your Princess Jeep to a beefy Jeep Crawler gathering? Surprisingly, you are met with (virtual) open arms! Such is the case when we met up with other members of the FMCA 4Wheelers group, a club of like-minded Jeep and motorhome/RVers, a group that has been around since 1995. Making our […]
Making it fun at some NASCAR tracks
In the spring, we made a trek across the southeast to visit family in Virginia. (You can see our visits on other blog posts at) Washington DC Williamsburg VA But one of our favorite reasons (besides family) to be in the southeast US was to attend not one but TWO NASCAR races! If you aren’t […]
Why Hot Springs Arkansas?
There wasn’t really a big reason to drive all the way to Hot Springs Arkansas, except that RVing friends had told us there was a great private off-roading park there, and epic mountain biking in the area. We had to make a stop somewhere on our way from Knoxville, Tennessee to Texas and it seemed […]
Living history abounds in southern Virginia
It could be the cheesiest tourist trap in the world. Or the Disneyland of American history. But it isn’t.

A 55+ park – is it for you?

Ringing in 2018 in the crossroads of Texas
We migrated to south-central Texas the second week of January, landing in Victoria Texas. This medium-sized community is dubbed the “crossroads” for the coastal bend area of Texas. It is centered between Houston and San Antonio and about 30 minutes from the Port Lavaca, on the Gulf Coast. This is a working town. No real […]
January Journal: Ugh – the dreaded flu hit us
About a week after we arrived, we both came down with the winter, nasty flu. I actually tested positive and Marc did not, but they treated both of us with Tami-flu and antibiotics, as well as some cough suppressant. For almost 2 weeks, we did pretty much nothing more than the absolute minimum of work, […]
