On the last morning of our fabulous visit (& the first sunny day), Greg and Rachel gave us farewell hugs as we climbed into our car parked down the street from their home. Since the day was so pretty, they continued on down the road to do a little shopping to...
After a wonderful overnight visit with Ben & Lynda at their fabulous, nearly completed, dream home and someday retirement home, we indulged in fried seafood at Sir Cricket's then visited Plymouth Rock - appropriate for Thanksgiving weekend - on the way back to...
Thanksgiving in Maine at the Wilcox house was a wonderful celebration of love, happiness, and family. We are connected to the Fagen family by so many ties of friendship over so many years that to celebrate the holiday with them at their daughter's home was very much a...
We were in Cambridge shopping for dinnerware with Greg and Rachel when we got the much awaited telephone call from David... Peyton Leigh Thole arrived weighing 6 pounds 12 ounces and looking beautiful. Mother, Baby, Dad, and Big Sister all doing well.
Spent a wonderfully relaxing day with Greg. Enjoyed doughnuts from Verna's, dropped the Trailblazer off for service and enjoyed the walk home. Spent the evening enjoying some of the vinyl albums and reading. The vinyl and some of the books had been among the items we...
We're still facing the challenge posed by moving into a home with not much storage space. The temporary solution has been to move some things into a storage unit. Now we're trying to figure out how to minimize and find a place for that stuff. Today we packed up the...
The plan was to have a baby blanket ready for the arrival of Peyton on the day before Thanksgiving. But this warp has had a mind of it's own and it's not willing to go along with the plan. There is no way it will be ready in time. Hopefully it will be completely woven...
There is Nantahala National Forest land just a little ways above our house at Tween Creeks. Today we set out at 2:30PM and went exploring. This was our first hike up to the ridge. In our enthusiasm we went a little further than perhaps we should have for the time of...
The house up the hill from us is no longer an abandoned house. It's now a sometimes home for a delightful couple. And it's a favorite destination on our walks especially the day after an all-day rain because the falls behind the house are spectacular.
We were able to spend time with them at the wedding yesterday but this early afternoon we were able to visit with CJ and Phil on their own turf. CJ and Karen participated in a lively discussion about knitting, exploring the Ravelry website and picking out a pattern...
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.
Enjoy exploring, and leave us comments! We love hearing from you. And if you’d like to follow us, Subscribe by signing up at the bottom of this page.

The two of us have officially had our minds blown. As a part of today's 1 PM tour of New Harmony, Indiana beginning at The Atheneum Visitors Center, we were able to visit the Maximilian-Bodmer Exhibit which tells the story of a German naturalist and a Swiss artist...
Before we booked a site at Harmonie State Park we had not heard of the nearby community of New Harmony, Indiana but today we immersed ourselves in the history of this fascinating community. We had a bit of a head start after a delightful conversation last evening with...
Our visits to Bloomington, Indiana are always amazing but this visit has taken it to the next level. We were privileged to have the opportunity to moochdock in CJ & Phil's driveway over the busiest campground weekend of the year and to share a spirit of adventure...
