As our great 2019 cross country adventure winds down we find ourselves deadheading toward the house even more quickly than we planned because we have an appointment this afternoon. But it's a gorgeous October morning in Tennessee and we've got enough time to linger...
It's become tradition. Wytheville, Virginia is a convenient stop on our way out or on our way home along I-81 and the Wytheville KOA offers Crazy Pizza. Tonight as we head home we have nothing more than breakfast makings in the T@B refrigerator so the prospect of a...
At the Stormville Rest Area westbound I-84 near Fishkill, New York just east of the Hamilton Fish Bridge over the Hudson River, we spied something that looked out of place. Perched atop a fence post was a bowling trophy bearing a brass plaque that reads: Winner...
Our arrival at Leyden Farm Winery was delayed for almost an hour by an incident on I-95 in Providence so we didn't get there early enough to participate in a tasting or wine by the glass. However we were in time to present our Harvest Hosts membership card and get...
What an incredible opportunity! A friend from Florida visiting her son and his girlfriend in Massachusetts while we were in the area and mutual friends who live on the Massachusetts coast made for a great afternoon visit and delicious meal at The Old Grist Mill Tavern...
When we discovered that üCamp friends Mike & Marilee with their daughter Jesse and we would all be in or near Rhode Island the same weekend, we made plans to rendezvous for a shared adventure. A grand house tour and some great American history appealed to everyone...
This phase of our trip, since we left Illinois, it definitely more about visits with family and friends with occasional cool places to visit or outstanding eateries. We're finding ourselves truly appreciating the time we can spend tucked into our T@B 400. Yesterday we...
After a delightful overnight in Connecticut where we joined friends Lynda & Ben for dinner and again for breakfast, we headed east on US-44. Ultimately we landed in Middleboro, Massachusetts and in need of some good sustenance. Luckily we chose Charred Oak Tavern,...
In July of last year we fell in love with Caffe Zia Gianna in Dorchester, Massachusetts. We returned this morning and were delighted not only that the food was just as delicious and the service just as friendly as we remembered, but that Nino remembered us as the...
Heading to Boston via US-20 we passed through Sturbridge, Massachusetts and couldn't help but think of that one line in James Taylor's Sweet Baby James so we queued it up and listened to the song. Just before leaving the US highway we paused for refreshment. We're...

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.

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.
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.
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.
