The brown dog
This post really has absolutely nothing to do with our travel adventures. I just wanted to share this so everyone can get an idea of how simple our lives have become. Gail and I are starting to realize that life in our home on wheels sometimes can get a ...
Dinner with Friends
One of the things Gail and I have in common is that we like to entertain and feed friends. As long as I do most if not all of the cooking, Gail is fine with doing the clean-up. We have lived by these lines of demarcation for most of the 31 plus years of ...
Not So Wasted Time
It has been a long time since I felt like sitting down and writing a story, mostly in part because Gail has been very ill the last few months. You see, as rough and tough as I might try to be, my mind becomes mush and my focus is always 100 percent on ...
Awaiting Friends
Since purchasing our new home, Gail has invited many Family and Friends to come visit us. We surely have plenty of room and are anxious for one and all to visit. Well our waiting is about to come to an end soon. We are expecting our first guests this ...
We Are Back
I'm back. It seems like forever since I have sat down and shared our life adventures with everyone. I guess during the summer months up North I have plenty to keep me busy and really don’t have the time. Well, as stated earlier…"I’m ...
A very happy new year
OK, lets get it out of the way. A very happy new year to one and all! Alrighty then, that process is done. New Years Eve this year was spent with new found friends here at Willow Tree. The resort had a party planned and Gail made sure that we were signed ...
A New Life for The General
A New Life for the General A few times in all of our lives there is something that has a very profound meaning and makes us sit back and think about all the things that have kept us going, forging ahead good times and bad. This for me is a very small ...
Hunting for Treasure
Time is drawing near for us to settle on our new home. We close the deal this Monday, January 10 at 9AM. Gail has been out buying all new furniture and hunting on Craigs List for used but like new furniture for some of the rooms in the house. ...
Returning Home
It has been quite a long time since I had the time or desire to write a bit about life. As most of our friends and family know, Gail and I work very hard all summer in Pennsylvania so we can migrate south for the winter. After what seemed like forever, ...
Sleeping Dog
Gail and I have entered a new chapter in our lives. I guess this was bound to happen sooner or later. You see our dog Baxter is getting close to 9 years old now and has started to act his age. It seems like only yesterday that we were at the shelter ...
New winter Home Decision
Once again today Gail and I went with our Agent, Bob, to look at more properties. The last 2 days we have looked at both Condos and Single Homes. A condo might be the right choice for some people but I myself am not a condo kind of guy. I just don't like ...
Southern Adjustments
Now that we are secure in our new home and are starting to get the tasks of everyday living underway, I have learned some things that is driving me nuts! First, let me say that we are very happy in our new home and the area that we now live in. ...
One of the Hardest Days of my Life
So the morning starts off by waking up at 4am. It storms around noon on top of the mountain, so we have to start the hike super early. After breaking camp with only a headlamp, we drive a mile or so to the trail head. It starts at 9,400 ft and tops out ...
WHY?
This posting has absolutely nothing to do with our travels. There is nothing even remotely linked to our new home or for that matter our current home on wheels. What this does have to do with is a very simple question I need answered by those who are ...
New home for a month
Yesterday we set up shop in Longs SC. Our intention was to stay 2 nights here and then pack up and head to the beach. Willow Tree is about 16 miles from the beach so Gail decided we should take a mini road trip into Myrtle Beach to check out our next ...
