On our way out of Richardson we three stopped at Bush’s Produce for some fresh vegetables and fruit. Bartered with a fellow shopper for a couple of Asian Pears, got some fresh peaches, Patty Pan squash, cherry tomatoes, and a few apples. As we headed out we each bit...
After years of hearing our tales of travel and of following our blog, Karen's sister joined us for a week of unplanned adventures. She arrived at Eugene Airport at midday and immediately began planning our next adventure. After a stop by the T@B for a light lunch we...
Our plans to soak in some natural hot springs this morning were thwarted by a routine temporary closure. Darn! Our muscles are begging for a session in hot waters. However that gave us the opportunity to get an early start into Eugene where we were successful at...
The AccuWeather promise of sunshine today wasn't evident as we were packing up and preparing to depart this morning. It was under gray skies that we headed west on I-84 toward Gresham traveling between Historic US-30 and the Columbia River. We saw the Crown Point...
Our home last night was the Vancouver RV Park, a distinctly urban park with tight sites, full hookups, and a prohibition against tents. It served our purpose nicely yesterday. Today we took advantage of the location and after pulling out we drove a few short blocks to...
Northwest Washington has two seasons, sunny summer and dreary winter. We're dancing on the boundary. Yesterday we enjoyed some glorious sunshine as we walked on Hurricane Ridge but today, on this last day of the Summer season the skies are leaden. We packed up and are...
Sabrina & Cornelius are purveyors of some amazing Texas BBQ up in the northwest corner of Washington State. Though they may no longer have their restaurant they do serve up some fabulous meals on the weekends at the Port Angeles KOA. They wormed their way into our...
Cathy & Jay took delivery of their new black and silver clamshell T@B just before Tearstock in July. They were camped near us there at Atwood but we didn't really get to know them until they and their dog Zoe stayed a few sites from us in Cottonwood campground at...
One evening in September 1975 at Patrick Henry Inn after a long day of touring Williamsburg VA along with hordes of tourists, we watched a report on the evening news of two chimps, named Chuckie & Judy that had escaped from the local zoo. Just opened the...
After some deliberation and a stop at the Visitors Center at Port Angeles for information, we decided to make the drive up to the highest point in Olympic National Park, Hurricane Ridge. The ranger told us that at the entrance they would not permit more vehicles to...

This saga began a rainy Thursday morning about ten days ago. Two sizable trees, a red oak and a black locust lost their footing on the knoll above our driveway. They uprooted and tumbled down striking the back of Bell@, our 2021 nüCamp T@B 400 on the edge, denting the...
It was our good fortune to be in Bloomington on this beautiful Saturday, the day of Bloomington's annual Handmade Market, a street fair on Kirkwood Avenue. We had a delightful time poking through various booths helping CJ & Phil scout out alien themed trinkets for...
This has been a glorious adventure to kick off the first leg of our Summer 2022 North & North Again Road Trip which began Wednesday afternoon. Karen has always been fascinated by fiber and textiles beginning with collecting fabric scraps from under her mother's...
