Brother John’s tickets

March 29th, 2022 My brother John (you will meet brother-in-law John in another post) has the most incredible tickets to the Tampa Bay Lightening and even though he knows I know and care very little about the actual game of sports, I love the spectacle of it all. Check out these seats! The penalty boxesContinue reading “Brother John’s tickets”

Adjust

March 24th, 2022 We stayed an extra night in the Blue Ridge KOA so we didn’t have to make the drive down to Lake Blackshear in stormy weather. Got up early this morning and got on the road by 8:30. We made it through Atlanta area traffic without too much trouble and I even participatedContinue reading “Adjust”

Adjust your plans

March 24th, 2022 Lessons learned today? Lesson number one: It’s more than OK to take time away from camping when you see a sign that says “the only salt cave in North Georgia” and the fact that this salt cave is attached to a fabulous spa didn’t hurt either! Serenity In The Mountains lived upContinue reading “Adjust your plans”

Blue Ridge Mountains

March 22, 2022 On our way down to Blue Ridge, GA, my brother John Elmer texted to say he and Chris Behrens Elmer would be here this weekend too!

Scary first night

March 16th, 2022 Another day – another ten lessons in patience. I understand that as you get older it is important to continue to learn new things. 🙂 We had hoped to leave about 10am today, but with the truck window repair we were delayed. Got the truck about noon and the new back windowContinue reading “Scary first night”

Brown County State Park

March 16th, 2022 We had a much more relaxing day today. Here are our lessons from yesterday. Without knowing what I was doing, I reserved a pull-through site in Brown County State Park in Indiana. I thought that meant a larger site and easier to get into. Wrong. The only pull-through sites in this incredibleContinue reading “Brown County State Park”

Excited – then disappointed!

Monday March 7th, 2022 We had gotten everything off the moving truck and into Emily and Alex’s garage. It was not organized yet, but we were getting there. Tim and I piled into the truck, got all gassed up and headed to Elkhorn to pick up the RV. Got all the way up there andContinue reading “Excited – then disappointed!”
