It’s been a minute… or a year plus. I apologize for the delay, but we've been living life and soaking up time with family and friends. After months of shopping and indecisiveness regarding whether to get a Class A, B, or C, we decided to try #vanlife. We purchased a used Sprinter passenger van, removed … Continue reading It’s been a minute…

Still Here
We’re still here… traveling when we can and enjoying time with family and friends. We sold our wonderful Micro Minnie simply because we miss having a motorhome.
Horse Show Camping
The beginning of November means… it's horse show time! You may remember from previous posts that our niece rides in horse shows. The shows remind me of dance recitals - an afternoon of spirited music, sparkly costumes and kids wearing huge smiles. There was the occasional toddler meltdown or sudden bout of stage fright, but … Continue reading Horse Show Camping
Meet Winnie
Meet Winnie... our Winnebago Micro Minnie. For our first ‘shakedown’ trip, we camped at Grayson Highlands State Park with the #StillWinnie Adventure Team and additional friends. How many Winnies do you see? Fantastic food, bikes on the Creeper Trail, sweet dogs and good times with friends... life is good.
New Beginnings
"Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past and present are certain to miss the future." - John F. Kennedy Siesta went home with her new family last week.

Horse Show Adventures
“The horse you got off is not the same horse you got on. It is our duty to always leave the horse a better horse.” - Unknown A little over a week ago, we traveled to Murfreesboro, TN to see our niece ride in the National Academy Championship Horse Show (NACHS). The NACHS is a 4-day … Continue reading Horse Show Adventures
The Beach and the Mountains
The past few months at home in the mountains has been nice - yard work, random fix-it projects, purging/cleaning/organizing closets, family time, walks/hikes, starting new hobbies, and lots of time relaxing on the porch swing and in the hammock. We are truly grateful. After only a few inquiries about our RV, we decided to load … Continue reading The Beach and the Mountains
Travel Update #6, we’re home! (for now)
Well, that went by quickly. We're home now, arrived March 9th. What a whirlwind trip. I'll go ahead and say, I intended to post all the time while gone, quipping and coming up with interesting and insightful stuff. Didn't happen. Last travel update was from Matagorda, TX, where we hunkered down inside over some rainy … Continue reading Travel Update #6, we’re home! (for now)
Travel Update #5, cold weather
"If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain." - Dolly Parton We’ve been in Port Lavaca, Texas for the last few days with pack members (M’s mom, Jean, her husband Bill and their dogs, Molly & Maggie), hunkered down. The weather has been less than ideal - dreary, cold, and extremely … Continue reading Travel Update #5, cold weather
Love where you live
I love where we live - but not the cold weather. I endure the 4 months of winter waiting for the reward of the weather the rest of the year. I love a beautiful snow day - one day. After that, I’m over it - ready for summer! There is a sense of accomplishment though … Continue reading Love where you live
