Five Years Ago
Five years ago we posted this on Facebook shortly after we completed a road test of nüCamp RV’s T@B 400 prototype. A few months later we placed an order for our very own 2018 T@B 400 and took delivery in May. Since then we’ve spent approximately half our nights...
Heading South
As we’ve gone about establishing residency in northeastern Ohio this past month, the subject of cold winter weather has repeatedly come up. Our response has been to quip, “Yes, but we have an escape pod. We intend to head south.” The time has come. We’ve successfully...
Back in Bell@!
Seven days ago we had the opportunity to retrieve Bell@, our 2021 T@B 400 from the nüCamp Service Center in Sugarcreek, Ohio where she's been since October 7th. Back in May she was seriously damaged by two falling trees but still watertight and capable of travel until...

Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens
London’s National Portrait Gallery’s temporary exhibition, “Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens” presents an amazing collection of portraits, jewelry, personal effects, books, costumes, and more to illustrate not only the lives of the six women who married the second Tudor king, but the effort across five centuries to keep their memory alive.
Caligula at Strawberry Hill
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.
Imperial War Museum
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.
