A few experiences last year made us realize that our 2004 Canon EOS 20D is a bit dated. Therefore we have been talking for a while about making the move to a mirrorless camera which would be lighter, more compact, and more advanced than the fabulous workhorse we've...
Karen arrived home from Ireland very very late on Monday and proceeded to begin the recovery from the effects of the five hour time change. Steve packed up the four boxes of photos that he scanned while she was gone in preparation to ship them to Greg for long term...
Our dear friend Sherri follows our travels through this blog and today sent us a message suggesting we get together while the two of us are here in western NC. We used Yelp! to find Sherrill's Pioneer Restaurant in Clyde NC as a convenient location midway between her...
There’s a lesson in there somewhere. On Saturday we called CityMac at Biltmore Park to make an appointment for service on Karen’s iPhone. And then proceeded to write down the appointment time in two different places, in one for 10AM and in the other for 12PM. Since...
Who can resist FrostyBites? Well we don't seem to be able to especially on No Weigh Wednesdays when we can fill the small cup with as much frozen yogurt and toppings as we desire for only four dollars. We discovered this Sylva NC indie shop a few months ago when we...
Once we get within a day's drive of our house we find it difficult to stop for just one more overnight. True to form we left Cincinnati this morning telling ourselves we'd stop somewhere and explore one of those interesting places we always breeze past but now we're...
Actually we visited Duluth Trading Company in West Chester OH, just north of Cincinnati on I-75. Steve's cousin Mary has been employed there since before the store opened last year. We've been impressed with the DTC clothes she and her husband wear. And recently our...
Winton Woods rather feels like home to us. It's often where we put down stakes when we come to Cincinnati to visit family but this time we came to enjoy quiet and be alone after the wonderfully busy eleven days in Sugarcreek. It's a Sunday night and much of the...
It was a morning of hugs and goodbyes as we exchanged contact information, offered moochdocking opportunities, and bid friends safe travels. The rest of us then gathered under the picnic shelter where we were joined by Jenn, an intrepid T@B traveler who'd not been...
Tonight's the grand finale of üCamp18! We all gathered in the pavilion to enjoy Bahler Street gourmet pizza prepared onsite with a mobile wood fired pizza oven, to enjoy live music, and cheer for folks as we learn the results of the ballot counts. It's been a great...
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.

Video: Voyageurs National Park This has been an amazing introduction to an incredible place. We successfully managed to rendezvous with our dear friend Amanda on her journey east from Washington State as we were making our way west. Actually we'd both departed from...
This week has been a dream come true for Karen. Ever since 1962 when she not only became best friends with Ann, the new girl at school, who later became a college roommate, but developed a friendship with her whole family, Karen has dreamt of visiting two small towns...
Soudan Mine Tour Video - Click Here After purchasing our tickets online yesterday we headed this morning over to the Lake Vermilion-Soudan Underground Mine State Park just east of Tower, Minnesota for the Soudan Underground Mine Tour where we had the privilege of...
