A family farm since 1904, Wright's Farm in Gardiner NY is a wonderful place to shop for farm fresh food. Cherries just came into season this week. We got homemade Peach Rhubarb Pie, Cinnamon Apple Cider Doughnuts, Free Range Eggs, Maple Sausage , and more. It's a...
This little campground in a forest not far from the jungle of metropolitan New Jersey is a delight. We walked into Mahlon Dickerson Reservation on Thursday and scored Site 9 for two nights. Built in the 1960's it was long a well kept local secret. Preston, its...
See Park Video It was the beginning of the worst winter in recorded history when General George Washington arrived on the doorstep of Theodosia Ford on December 1, 1779. The family had agreed to quarter Washington in Morristown NJ as the Continental Army went into...
Shall we say that getting a haircut while on the road even under the best of conditions is not a stress free experience as Ray Stevens warned us back in 1985? But it's not always possible to go back home when the locks get long. Today's experience was complicated by...
As long as we have been involved in researching our family history, we have known of our link to Elizabeth, New Jersey and the Revolutionary War era. What we didn't know until the last couple of days was that Karen's 5-Great Grandparents Ogden left Elizabeth during...
As we pass through through the Delaware Water Gap at the Pennsylvania - New Jersey border we're feeling a tug to go and do more exploring in the National Recreation Area. At the same time we're hearing a call to go exploring family history and American History in the...
Besides being a trip back to the turn of the last century this was a trip deep underground. Actually we did not travel down but rather straight into the side of a mountain at The Pioneer Tunnel Coal Mine in Ashland PA. Guided by the Mine Foreman, Brad, we learned a...
This is a return to a memorable place. The last time we stayed here at the COE Outflow Campground on Mae West Road at Confluence PA we toured the area, visiting the National Road, Fort Necessity, and Ohiopyle, as well as treating ourselves to soft freeze ice cream....
The more we learn about family history as well as American History, the more we are fascinated by places like this. The Air Heritage Museum in Beaver Falls PA is an all volunteer organization devoted to the preservation and restoration of historically significant...
Our home tonight is the Mercer/Grove City KOA in western Pennsylvania chosen for its proximity to tomorrow's adventure, the promise of decent laundry facilities, and the ease of making a reservation through the KOA app. Yes, we love public campgrounds, they are often...

Our granddaughter has been dancing for at least ten years now. She's been the younger of the sisters until this year, and she's finding her own way now with her older sister off to college. Her talents are shining! It's a delight to sit in the audience with her sister...
This one wasn't expected at all. We arrived last evening and overnighted in one of the Courtesy Sites behind the nüCamp RV Service Center for an appointment early this morning to have our wheel bearings repacked. Just a bit of preventative maintenance, no big deal. We...
