New Tires in Iowa

2019 West Again, Iowa, Road Trip, States

This morning we visited Freedom Tire in Ames and got new tires for Eric the Red, our 2008 F-150. Our last safety check indicated that we should be replacing tires fairly soon but something told us to do it sooner rather than later.  Apparently we did it none too soon. The technician told us that one of the tires had already begun separating.  Back at the house our favorite barista  made us some fabulous coffee drinks, we confirmed Pam & Mike’s plans to visit Tween Creeks later this month, and made our visit to Iowa official when Mike placed the sticker on Sc@rlett.  We’re now back on the road with four Goodyear Wranglers and a greater sense of confidence in our truck.  Adventure awaits!

Winter Magic in Medina

Winter Magic in Medina

By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!

Savoy at Sea 2025

The warmth we anticipated when we headed to the Caribbean in mid-January didn’t really materialize but the fun we had with our dancing friends and the great crew of the Margaritaville at Sea Islander more than made up for the not so favorable weather.
