By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!

Castle Noel
America’s Largest Indoor Year Round Christmas Entertainment Attraction in Medina, Ohio is a fantastical trip into childhood.
Cambridge Based
On our way south to our next stop, we paused in Sugarcreek to meet up with some of our friends at nüCamp RV, an amazing organization that we've been privileged to be associated with for the last fourteen years. After an afternoon spent with John, Julie, and Scott we...
William Henry Harrison Memorial
Like most Americans, we knew little about the 9th President of the United States except for his 1840 campaign slogan, "Tippecanoe and Tyler too" and that he died one month into his presidency presumably of pneumonia after delivering a two hour long inaugural address...
Cuyahoga Valley National Park
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.

What had been planned as a two night stay here at Stow Silver Springs Campground, became a four night stay as of this morning when we cancelled our reservations at another campground west of here and booked an additional two night stay here in Summit County north of...
All Because of an Eclipse
It was a fabulous opportunity to not only view the 2024 Solar Eclipse from within the path of totality but also to enjoy a five day weekend with friends from the T@B trailer community at Ohio’s East Harbor State Park on the shore of Lake Erie.
Taking a Break in Ohio
It's been five weeks since we arrived in Ohio and we've had three different long stays, six nights at Nimisila, ten nights at Winklepleck, and sixteen nights moochdocking behind our son's family's house. Besides the fabulous week at üCamp, it's given us the...
Chowder House Cafe
The crazy detour, from Illinois to Ohio, for warranty work on our little teardrop camper, has another benefit. We get to enjoy a weekend with family, moochdocking in our son's driveway, lunch out on a summer's day with our granddaughters while the parents are at work,...
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.

Cozumel & Grand Cayman
Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.
A Taste of Old Florida
What a treat to pause for a BBQ lunch with the locals at Pearl Country Store and Barbecue on US-441 in Micanopy, Florida. It’s a taste of the Florida we remeber from our youth.
