Time to pause for a few minutes and savor the scene with a mug of freshly brewed decaf. We've had neighbors drop by to welcome us back to the cove. And we've begun unpacking the truck and the T@B and settling into our mountain house. First things first. We're filling...
Just as we were entering Jackson County we heard a car honk and a green CRV passed us. It was none other than our good friend Stan. We pulled off the on the side of Woodfin to get hugs, to swap a few travel tales, and make plans to see each other this weekend! What a...
It's been a glorious four months since we left these beautiful Smoky Mountains. Today we are returning on a fabulously sunny day. It will be good to settle into the house at Tween Creeks for a bit. We're going to enjoy our deck, and outdoor fire pit, and especially...
Wytheville KOA. Full hookups including cable TV. We'll get to watch the first game of the World Series. Delivery pizza right to our campsite. Chilling a bit on our last night on the road. We left Tween Creeks on June 26th and we'll return tomorrow, a mere four months...
Late in this trip our T@B's ALDE system's reservoir developed a leak. That gave us one more good reason to come to northeastern Ohio. We contacted Austin and made arrangements to bring Gigi back to the factory for repair this morning. It gave us the chance to also see...
Five of us piled into Dave's as yet unnamed sparkly blue Jeep Patriot and headed out on an adventure reminiscent of so many of our family adventures in Big Red, our 1978 Jeep Cherokee. As we rolled we rocked to Walk the Moon, The Kingsmen, Cindy Lauper, The...
Woke up to temperatures in the low forties, gray skies, and lots of condensation along the metal trim in the clamshell kitchen. We figured out long ago that regardless of how cold it is outside that we have to open both the ceiling fan vent and the window at the foot...
It was a rainy trip from Bloomington to Richmond, Indiana. After setup on Site 5 at the KOA, we discussed the feasibility of preparing dinner then invoked the "That's why God made restaurants!" comment that we use when curious people ask about cooking in the clamshell...
The rain did pretty much hold off until we were able to get Gigi situated in her temporary spot. With Eric at Midas we ventured out under the umbrella to see what opportunities the area afforded. Haircuts at Great Clips. Electronic musings at Best Buy. Soup and salad...
It looks promising this morning. The weather app suggests no rain for at least the next two hours! Â How wonderful! We spent all afternoon, all evening, and all night tucked inside our cozy T@B with its clamshell kitchen while thunderstorms raged outside. We did get...
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.

On the Hidden London Tour today we visited a number of curious places relating to the history of public transportation hidden in plain sight.
Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.
Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
