This morning we finished putting away all of the stuff that had to be taken out of the wardrobe and the under sink cabinet for the upgrades, repairs, and inspection of our T@B 400, then went for a walk before heading to Amish Country Donuts Cafe to meet with Allison....
It's a Holiday KOA with lots of campsites, we're in 602 if that gives you a clue, and lots of activities. The Sunbury/Columbus North KOA really is a lovely weekend getaway place for families in the Columbus, Ohio area. Although we aren't planning on participating in...
It's the middle of a five day interlude between Bloomington and Columbus. We're staying at Rocky Fork State Park near Hillsboro, Ohio on Site 169. We've got shade, full hookups, a view of the water, few neighbors, a laundry room nearby, and no plans to go anywhere or...
It's our first day of Summer Ramble 2019! Leaving Sugarcreek we headed west out of Tuscarawas County and through Holmes County noting how little we actually got out and about during our two weeks in Amish Country. We planned to stop briefly in Hayesville, Ohio to see...
It was a good day, if a bit blustery and chilly, at üCamp. Truth be told it was actually so rainy that the evening presentations and showing of American Grafitti was cancelled. That gave us a guilt-free opportunity to go off campus with a cadre of good friends and...
The last two years we have been at Winklepleck to greet Amanda as she arrived prior to üCamp. This year the tables were turned and Amanda was waiting for us. She helped us locate the pedestal we will share with three other trailers and position ours with consideration...
As an interlude several of us made the short journey from Sugarcreek to Baltic, Ohio to East Main Kitchen for conversation and comfort food. We can highly recommend the Roast Beef Dinner! From there we moved across the street to Baltic Mill Winery where we lingered in...
Six of us piled into a Highlander for a trip to Lehman's, originally founded in 1955 to stock non-electric equipment and supplies in demand in the middle of Ohio's Amish community. These days the Lehman's store here in Kidron is patronized not only by local Amish and...
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....
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.

The two of us have long been fascinated with the history of canals and their role in the history of transportation, industrialization, and more recently recreation. This stay in London has given us new opportunities to explore and learn more about how canals contributed to the growth of this great city and how they are being used and preserved today.
It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.
It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.
