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...

Anything Goes
Tonight was Opening Night of the 50th Season at the Porthouse Theater in Cuyahoga Falls OH and thanks to Emily we enjoyed front row seats for Anything Goes! It's a delightful madcap story that first opened on Broadway in November 1934. It's based on a book by Guy...
Out and About
The last time we visited Sugarcreek our dear friends Elsie and Sarah invited us to their house for homemade Rhubarb Pie and Garden Tea. Tonight we invited them to join us for dinner and requested they choose a restaurant new to all of us. Malcuit's Tavern in Strasburg...
National Coffee Day 2017
Who knew it was National Coffee Day? We didn't until we refueled and shopped for a couple of essential items at a Shell station where we were offered free coffee! Now it's on our calendar as an annual event so we can plan where to get the best coffee each year. So...
Our ACD Fix
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....
Blissful Quiet
About four hours ago we successfully found Silver Spring Campground in Stowe OH, situated ourselves on a shady site and settled in. After lunch and a nap we're enjoying salubrious silence. At mid-week the campground is virtually empty so we have the pleasure of...
A New Awning
A swing back into Ohio wasn't part of our plan until we experienced heavy rains in New York and realized the stargazer wasn't perfectly watertight. So we made a trip to nüCamp by way of Lisbon OH. Fortunately the seal was easily set right. It also gave us the...
Exploring Kent
Yesterday and today we've had the pleasure of Emily's company as we've explored the area of Kent and Cuyahoga Falls OH. Yesterday the costume shop closed early and she joined us for a delicious lunch at Mike's Place, a delightful eatery in Kent with multiple themes...
Are We Lost?
After great visits with our family in Canton, with our nüCamp family in Sugarcreek, and with Chris, our hostess at the KOA in East Sparta, we headed out on the next leg of our Summer Ramble. After consulting the All Stays App we set the GPS for a Stow OH city park...
On a Road Again
After a three night sojourn in Geneva State Park we hit US-20 eastbound fighting with the Maps app regarding whether we should travel interstate or US highway on our way to Westfield NY. Along we way we made a couple of stops. First at Steve's Auto Wash (no relation)...
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.

OUR VERY
LATEST
Jives Aces in Tunbridge Wells AND Portsmouth
From London we made our way to Tunbridge Wells in Kent to dance to the strains of The Jive Aces and later enjoyed the opportunity to hobnob with the band members at The Ship and Castle in Portsmouth. Two fabulous experiences!
Underground at Charing Cross
Our last day in London this trip we ventured underground on the Hidden London Charing Cross: Access All Areas Tour for a peek into the workings of The Underground a bit of its history and the uses of the Jubilee Line Charing Cross Station that no longer serves passengers but still has usefulness including as a filming location for movies including Skyfall and Paddington.
Simply Stonehenge
A half-day bus tour from London to Stonehenge gave us enough of an opportunity to gaze in awe at this ancient sacred monument, learn a little more about its history and construction and make us want to return for perhaps a more intimate experience.
