The party continues. We walked to Glenhaven with a gaggle of friends where rather than join the long line for refreshments, we just grabbed a table and continued visiting until the line diminished. As the evening progressed more folks joined us. Eventually we migrated...
Some of us volunteered to be up early Saturday morning to help finish up the temporary üCamp water so it will be ready for Monday morning when registration begins and the official rally gets underway. The first challenge of the day was finding the north end of the...
One of the advantages of putting down stakes in Sugarcreek, Ohio a few days ahead of schedule, is the opportunity to run errands in somewhat familiar territory. This morning we had the pleasure of grocery shopping at Buehler's in Dover, one of a small chain of...
Just on the fringe of Allegany National Forest on the banks of Tionesta Creek, we’re enjoying the comforts of Tionesta Campground Site #42. It’s an Army Corps of Engineers campground with more amenities than usual. We’ve got full hookups! We got to indulge in full...
Today’s the day, the official check-in and kick-off for üCamp18! Over the last few days more than a dozen of us arrived early and settled in. Those of us with previous üCamp experience helped others find their place within Winklepleck and when needed guided newbies...
When we chose to arrive early at Winklepleck for the üCamp18 rally we were aware that there would be other events happening on the grounds over the weekend but thought that since our campsite was at the far end of the park that we would not be in the way. Turns out we...
On impulse this morning we modified our plans and headed to Sugarcreek, Ohio. We are slated to participate in the annual nüCamp rally, a gathering of teardrop campers next week. üCamp18 doesn't officially begin for five days but we weren't the first to arrive at...
It's where Chipotle's sour cream comes from, an Amish family dairy farm certified for its humane animal care. We were invited to watch the milking this afternoon. We were impressed with the care the family took with the process from the milking of the cows and the...
Friends alerted us to the fact that the Amish Country Doughnuts truck would be open for business this morning so Amanda and the two of us headed out for a sweet experience in Sugarcreek, Ohio. Even just ordering these huge doughnuts at the counter is a fun experience....
Our destination today was the historic marker on the banks of French Creek where John Chapman/Johnny Appleseed lived and worked more than two hundred years ago. We parked, walked to the marker, took pictures, and discovered that this was the site of the 1787 Fort...

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.
Aboard Jewel of the Seas, a favorite ship of ours, we enjoyed a foray into the history and geology of Canada’s Atlantic coast while enjoying the joys of friendships, longtime and new. Now we’re looking forward to returning to the same ship for further adventures!
Thanks to the organizational skills of Mandy & Kgreat weekend of endrick, the amazing support of their team, and the sponsorship of nüCamp RV we enjoyed a great weekend of camaraderie and fun at the Northeast Rally. Gathering with fellow teardrop aficionados is always an enriching experience and this gathering in the Adirondacks was no exception.
