Thinking in a preventative maintenance state of mind, we thought it wise to replace the five year old original battery in Redford, our 2016 F-150. Yesterday we stopped by Harrison Auto Parts/NAPA in Sugarcreek because we had such a great experience when we needed to...
For folks like us who may rise early but eat breakfast later in the day, finding a place that serves breakfast all hours, like The Mill Restaurant inside the Dover, Ohio Buehler's Fresh Foods grocery store is fabulous. We opted for the Stuffed Omelet, a Fruit Cup, and...
Finally, Labor Day 2020 has come and gone so the camping season should begin winding down. Although we’ve stayed isolated at home since mid-March (with the one exception of a quick trip to Sugarcreek), for many it's been a year to foray into the world of RV travel....
It’s snowing! We’re warm and snug here in our little mountain house on this Eleventh Night of Christmas though. Yesterday we made the drive from Hilton Head SC. At one point while we were enjoying a phone conversation we hardly noticed missing the turn that would have...
It’s a New Year! And we want to wish each and every one of you an amazing and wonderful year. In fact, since it’s a new decade, we hope you have a fabulous ten years and more! We’re celebrating today in the tradition we have practiced for the last few decades, we are...
Wanting to spend a little time with friends Stan & Mary during our interlude here in the North Carolina mountains, we met them for lunch at Forager's Canteen in Dillsboro, North Carolina. Oh, yum! We'd heard good things about this place from a friend, now we're...
As our great 2019 cross country adventure winds down we find ourselves deadheading toward the house even more quickly than we planned because we have an appointment this afternoon. But it's a gorgeous October morning in Tennessee and we've got enough time to linger...
It's become tradition. Wytheville, Virginia is a convenient stop on our way out or on our way home along I-81 and the Wytheville KOA offers Crazy Pizza. Tonight as we head home we have nothing more than breakfast makings in the T@B refrigerator so the prospect of a...
At the Stormville Rest Area westbound I-84 near Fishkill, New York just east of the Hamilton Fish Bridge over the Hudson River, we spied something that looked out of place. Perched atop a fence post was a bowling trophy bearing a brass plaque that reads: Winner...
Our arrival at Leyden Farm Winery was delayed for almost an hour by an incident on I-95 in Providence so we didn't get there early enough to participate in a tasting or wine by the glass. However we were in time to present our Harvest Hosts membership card and get...
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 twenty-seven days of adventure aboard Jewel of the Seas begins today as we come aboard in Amsterdam for back to back cruises.
Four of the five nights we spent in Netherlands was in Haarlem, the capital of North Holland. It was a wise decision for us to base ourselves outside to Amsterdam.
A string of unexpected problems complicated our transition from Southampton to Haarlem but calm problem solving and a sense of adventure led to unpredicted delights and a story for the ages.
