Getting Ready to Go to Canada This was a short 3 night stop in New York to give us a location close to the Canadian border. We’ve slowly been going through the RV to get everything ready for the border crossing, mainly drinking a few “extra” bottles of wine since you can only go through…
Meeting New Friends You know how sometimes how you feel about a place is colored by the weather, how you feel, or the people you meet along the way. Well, Tionesta was like this because in the camper next door were the nicest people, Andy & Sally. When we first arrived Andy was playing blue…
Confluence, Pennsylvania and “Old” Friends According to Wikipedia “in geography, a confluence is the meeting of two or more bodies of water.” Confluence, Pennsylvania is where three rivers converge and is a sleepy little town. One of the reasons I really loved it was because it reminded me of a dear friend. You know how…
Driving into the area I missed the turn (darn GPS!) so we got to enjoy the local countryside getting to Lake Anna State Park. The local rural farms along the rolling hills were so beautiful. This is what happens sometimes, it’s nice not to be in a hurry and take it as it comes. (Norma calls…
Seasons The seasons are changing and the hot, humid weather is upon us. We thought heading north would give some relief from the heat, but this part of Virginia (no longer in the mountains) still has the heat and humidity. It’s also hurricane season, so now we have to be aware of any storm…
Well, it has been a year that we have been on the road as nomads, or perpetual travelers, two years since Don retired, and a year-and-a-half since I retired. That’s a lot of change but we would do it all over again in an instant. It has made us closer as a couple and…

On the Road with Don & Norma Continuing with our adventures, Don’s “On the Road” last week had us arriving at Lathrop State Park in Walsenburg, Colorado on June 17th and told about our adventures through Friday (the 19th) so I’ll pick up on Saturday (the 20th). Lathrop State Park, Walsenburg, Colorado: Saturday, June 20:…
On the Road with Don & Norma Continuing with our adventures, we learned that the saying “Everything is bigger in Texas” is quite true. Seems like we keep driving and never leave Texas. And lots of miles driven means more fuel stops. The picture above is our little RV at the pumps with the big…
On the Road with Don & Norma It is the end of our first week on the road and it was been a transition for us. We knew we wanted to try this lifestyle for a little while and it was a whirlwind getting the house ready to sell and sold. To get ready for…
