This is a spectacular park where you can take a drive through the hills and prairie and you are certain to spot some of the park’s resident bison, pronghorn, deer, elk, bigContinue reading “Custer State Park”

Spearfish Canyon, SD
June 28th, 2022 No matter how much you research your journey before you leave, nothing beats having a navigator with you who knows the region like they have lived there their whole lives. I searched sites and grabbed every single tourist magazine I could find. I have piles of pages for each of the excursionsContinue reading “Spearfish Canyon, SD”
Neshonoc Lakeside Campground – West Salem, WI
June 21-22, 2022 This campground was just a two night stop over on our way to the Badlands, but we would definitely come here again for a longer visit. The customer service here is incredible.

Can I finally learn? Urban campgrounds are not my style….
June 24th, 2022 For the most part the campgrounds we have stayed at were at least “fine” but the times I have kicked myself for the booking were when we were in a campground marked “easy interstate access.” Like the real estate codes “cozy” that means REALLY small, “easy interstate access,” means you are sleepingContinue reading “Can I finally learn?

When we were in Lexington, we made time to go to the Woodford Reserve tour.

Drop what you are doing
June 22nd, 2022 One of the most amazing parts about being retired and having a home that is on wheels is that when your family calls you can simply drop what you are doing and head over to help.

Dollywood for the kid in you
June 3, 2022 We loved our visit to the Smoky Mountains and I’m so glad that we chose to spend a day at Dollywood. Tim and I are both well past our roller coaster years so we wondered if Dollywood would be worth the price of tickets if we didn’t do the rides. Tickets areContinue reading “Dollywood for the kid in you”
Afternoon by the river
June 2, 2022 Wish this peaceful little river was in your backyard? It could be if you stop by “It’s Not the Coffee” in Townsend, Tennessee. Townsend is a fun little town just southwest of the bustle of Pigeon Forge. Townsend’s beautiful river-walk, while right along highway 321, features convenient parking areas, picnic tables andContinue reading “Afternoon by the river”
