Today's route is US-20 eastbound across New York State. It's one of our favorite highways. Our first trip along this stretch was in September 1976 driving a 1971 Pontiac LeMans from Niagara Falls, Ontario to Glens Falls, New York. If memory serves us correctly we...

Road Trip
Some White Ipocras
Last night when we were chatting with Laura, we mentioned how much we enjoy Johnson Estate Wines in Westfield, New York and she agreed, especially their Red and White Ipocras, spiced wines. It’s the oldest farm winery in New York State. We’ve visited a few times since...
Courtyard Winery
After an overnight in Canton and an opportunity to finish transferring our gear from truck to trailer, we're on the road. This truly is the beginning of Summer Ramble 2021. Our first stop is Courtyard Winery in the town of North East, Pennsylvania. It's one of more...
Snow Day in TimberCrest
Fortunately we were forewarned by an Accuweather Wintercast alert to our phones, so we disconnected our hoses and protected our dump valves with RV antifreeze last night. Then we hunkered down inside our camper, checked the radar, and settled in for the night...
Party at Timbercrest
TimberCrest Camp and RV Park Site #74 in Walnut Creek, Ohio has been our home for the last week. Then a few days ago we learned that Michael & Marcus and Ollie would be piling into heading to to Sugarcreek to retrieve their T@B 400 from the nüCamp RV Service...
Redford’s New Battery
Thinking in a preventative maintenance state of mind, we thought it wise to replace the five year old original battery in Redford, our 2016 F-150. Yesterday we stopped by Harrison Auto Parts/NAPA in Sugarcreek because we had such a great experience when we needed to...
Breakfast at Buehler’s
For folks like us who may rise early but eat breakfast later in the day, finding a place that serves breakfast all hours, like The Mill Restaurant inside the Dover, Ohio Buehler's Fresh Foods grocery store is fabulous. We opted for the Stuffed Omelet, a Fruit Cup, and...
nüCamp Then and Now
As we met with Julie over lunch today and discussed plans for the upcoming üCamp21, hobnobbed with some of our long time nüCamp friends, and toured the nüCamp factory, we realized that it was exactly twelve years ago today in 2009 that we met Joe Mullet in the three...
At Home in Canton
A week ago we backed Sc@rlett into our son’s driveway and commenced a delightful visit that has involved so many great activities. We helped plant seeds for this year’s herb and vegetable garden, roasted S’Mores with granddaughters in the backyard over our new Solo...
Visiting Nimisila
Although the two of us visit the Canton/Sugarcreek area often and have stayed at several campgrounds in the area, the Nimisila Reservoir Metro Park Campground between Akron and Canton, Ohio had not been on our radar until Jenn (check out her Blog for videos on caring...
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
London’s Canals
The two of us have long been fascinated with the history of canals and their role in the history of transportation, industrialization, and more recently recreation. This stay in London has given us new opportunities to explore and learn more about how canals contributed to the growth of this great city and how they are being used and preserved today.
National Portrait Gallery
It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.
Bletchley Park
It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.
