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...

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...

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)...

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...

Hiding in the Woods

Hiding in the Woods

It's one of those times we just need to be alone with our thoughts. Geneva State Park is serving us well in that regard. It's mid-week and there are few fellow campers. The sites are spacious and nicely wooded. We've done the laundry, finally sifted through the mail...

Murals New and Old

Murals New and Old

East Fork State Park outside of Cincinnati was a great home for us for four nights. Close enough to meet up with some cousins, near a restaurant we love because they serve some great goetta, but quiet and peaceful. It's been quite a while since we stayed at this park...

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.

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.

Excursion to Bath, England

Excursion to Bath, England

Bath, England is an amazingly inviting place with deep deep history. One little day trip isn’t anywhere near enough but we did enjoy delving into the history of the Roman Baths, basking in the beauty of Bath Abbey, and topping our visit off with Tea and Bath Buns!
