Our rental property is in between tenants and that means there’s work to do. This time, we aren’t doing all the work ourselves and have asked for help. Good folks like Queen City Disposal dropped off a dumpster so that we could fill it up with stuff left by the last tenants. Stuff like a …
Our main lesson we learned from our trip East this year was that two weeks was entirely too fast. It’s not about the destination, it’s about enjoying the journey. Even though we felt the pressure of meeting the deadline to get back to our home base, we made sure to take some time off work …
Our hike up to the summit of Mt. Rogers, the highest point of Virginia, was one of our high points of our trip (no pun intended, well maybe a pun was intended). We tracked our trail on the way up using Gaia GPS for the first time. Loving the app! We didn’t have any Internet …
Even though last weekend was pretty eventful, Robert and I seemed to get stir crazy. Maybe it’s because we felt our trip to TN was too short. Maybe we wanted to procrastinate on doing something. I don’t know, but the feeling of getting out and away from the RV overtook us the entire weekend. Antenna …
Just outside of Deming, New Mexico is the quaint Rockhound State Park. We arrived around 4pm and we were glad that there were plenty of camping sites available. They have several full hookup sites, but we opted for a non-electric site. We were at the top of the hill and had the area all …
Not a well-known park, Prairie State Park has nearly 4,000 acres that preserves Missouri’s largest remaining tallgrass prairie. Did you know that tallgrass prairie used to be more than one fourth of Missouri’s landscape? Now, only one percent remains. Since it’s not too far from where we live, Robert and I decided to take the …
Sunday morning was a little soggy. That didn’t deter us though. We folded up the tent and left our campsite by 7:15 a.m. We stopped at the entrance so that we could take some photos, check the tires and make a smoothie. We were just under a quarter tank of gas, so we headed to …
We just had to get out of the RV today. We’ve been cooped up too long in front of our computers, focusing on work. It had been raining and snowing last night and wasn’t supposed to get above freezing today. The sky was gray and gloomy, but we didn’t care, we had to get …
Gayla, our photographer friend Daniel Shortt, and I left early Sunday morning from Springfield, MO, and drove south on US HWY 65 to Harrison, AR. Here is where the scenic drive really began. Along Hwy 43 South out of Harrison, driving the very curvy and hilly roads, we had a few opportunities to pull over …
Wednesday, we decided to take our lunch break from office work at Clifty Creek Natural Area Trail. Just under ten miles away from our seasonal home of Missouri Festival & RV Park, we thought it would be a great way to get out and enjoy the chilly, sunshiny day. The trail is about a 2.3 mile loop that …
