Spent the day moving furniture and boxes out of the apartment and into a rented 16 foot Penske truck despite a series of small misadventures including dropping a key down the elevator shaft! Michael and Matthew were our helpers and were indispensable. We finished the...

More Family Fun
The day began before dawn when Mike and Mark met for a dawn photo shoot but by 7AM Mark was engaged again in consulting activities. The action began at Mike & Cathy's for a breakfast of make your own bag omelets then moved downtown for a visit to North Shore...
Pinball, Pizza, & Popcorn
We joined Patti & Mark, Brian & Rebecca, and Gary over at Mike & Cathy, Matt & Emily's house. We whiled away the afternoon with conversation, games of old fashioned pinball, and pizza. Later the fun transferred to our downtown apartment. We finished the day watching...
A New Clay Experience
Back to studio after two weeks. Got some pieces out of the glaze kiln and started using Speckled Brown clay. This piece is perhaps the largest Karen's yet thrown. We'll see what it looks like when it comes out of the kiln... In Silver Studio Steve made some beautiful...
A Gathering of Vikings
Nearly a hundred of the Northeast High School Class of 1968 gathered at the Tradewinds Resort for a night of remembering. Thank heavens for the yearbook photos on the name tags of class members! It was a wonderful reunion with a few and a challenge to remember some of...
Files and Fun
Spent the better part of the day sorting through files both paper and electronic, getting ready to transfer the paper sort to the NC house and back-up the electronic ones to an external hard drive. Managed to do some fun things too: a long walk downtown, our Monday...
Early Morning Downtown
Went for a walk (and a little bit of running) downtown fairly early in the morning. We managed to beat the rain! Later in the day we went to the Apple Store in Tampa for some One to One training to learn some things that will make it easier to blog while we travel!
Our Beautiful Balcony View
Arrived home early afternoon after an easy drive in from Tifton. It was good to be home even though there is not a whole lot of our "stuff" left in the apartment and we only have a few more weeks to live here. The eastern sky was beautiful at sunset and we spent some...
Mass at St. Rose
After a delightful breakfast visit we went to Mass with Aunt Mary at St Rose Church with it's wonderful historic interior, it's beautiful Ohio River scenery, and beautiful landscape flowers. After Mass we hugged Aunt Mary and headed south on I-75 making it as far as...
Zip’s in Mount Lookout
Walked down to Mount Lookout Square from Grace Avenue with Aunt Mary and Cousin Jeena for a dinner of burgers and Mt Carmel Copper Ale at Zip's Cafe, a Cincinnati institution with a lot of family history intertwined.
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 VERY
LATEST
Standing Indian Campground
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....
Morning in the Mountains
As a counterbalance to our dreaming of hitting the road, and of field testing some of our new life on the road equipment in our own driveway, we're making a concerted effort to enjoy life in our mountain house. This morning we awakened in Sc@rlett, our T@B 400 which...
A nüCamp Visit
Back in January we made an appointment with Austin at nüCamp for June 30th, the Tuesday after üCamp20 to have rooftop solar installed on our 2018 T@B 400. Little did we know that Winklepleck would still be closed and üCamp20 would be cancelled. Thus we wouldn’t...
