Since Redford, our 2016 Ford F-150 is in the shop for a week we were fortunate that Jim, a dear friend and fellow T@B owner offered to hitch Bell@, our T@B 400 to his truck and deliver her to our next stop. It turned out to be not quite seamless. Jim's trailer has the...
On our way south to our next stop, we paused in Sugarcreek to meet up with some of our friends at nüCamp RV, an amazing organization that we've been privileged to be associated with for the last fourteen years. After an afternoon spent with John, Julie, and Scott we...
Our destination when we departed western Massachusetts was northeastern Ohio to watch Peyton dance in a ballet production of Mary Poppins, hang out a bit with family, pick up some belongings from our storage area, and take care of some other personal business. There...
Peyton's been dancing for at least ten years and it thrills us every time we have the opportunity to watch here. Tonight she played a nanny, a band member, a panda, and a banker in a ballet production of Mary Poppins. We especially loved her brief solo with a...
Seven of us have piled into a seven passenger van (aka The Clown Car) and have ventured out into the snowy streets on a Christmas Eve adventure. First stop was Dunkin’ for morning beverages and a review of Christmas Eve/Road-trip traditions. Positivity rules with some...
We’ve just celebrated our Forty-Ninth Anniversary in western Massachusetts. We opted to linger a while longer with our trailer parked in Greg’s driveway. It’s a salubrious time of year here. For dinner on our anniversary we asked Greg to join us for drinks and dinner...
With all the festivities of Dance/Graduation Weekend and üCamp22 behind us, we joined Dave, Amy, and family Sunday for a quiet Father's Day celebration beginning with a sumptuous charcuterie brunch, afternoon naps for all the adults, and a delicious grill night topped...
What can we say? üCamp is always an incredible experience. Every year it gets bigger and better and more enriching. It's truly amazing the number of great friendships that have begun with this gathering of like minded adventurous folks not to mention how much we've...
It's been a busy weekend. Peyton and Riley danced their Spring Recital. Both are accomplished dancers in many styles of dance and had multiple performances in the three shows Saturday. Both performed in the glittery kick line dances. We were touched by their...
This saga began a rainy Thursday morning about ten days ago. Two sizable trees, a red oak and a black locust lost their footing on the knoll above our driveway. They uprooted and tumbled down striking the back of Bell@, our 2021 nüCamp T@B 400 on the edge, denting the...
Planning a trip? Dreaming of travel? Perhaps some of our adventures could inspire yours! Over the last several years we’ve had the distinct pleasure of many cross country journeys traveling though the Lower 48 in tents and our various teardrop campers as well as an amazing Alaska adventure that did not involve a camper.

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
London’s Imperial War Museum in Southwark founded even as the First World War raged offers insights into the myriad costs of the wars of the 20th and 21st Centuries. It was a most disquieting but valuable reminder of the myriad costs of war.
The two of us have long been fascinated with the history of canals and their role in the history of transportation, industrialization, and more recently recreation. This stay in London has given us new opportunities to explore and learn more about how canals contributed to the growth of this great city and how they are being used and preserved today.
