A Rambling Roller Coaster Ride
Categories: South Carolina
The ailing failing cooling fooling air conditioner saga continues. Being sick at the same time made it maddening to boot but I am coming around feeling so much better.
An angel swooped down out of the blue, loaning me money to replace my air conditioner and upgrade to one with a heat stri...

We left our nice little place this morning. Thanks to Marty and Mary Jo, campground owners, for a wonderful time. We will be back. We made our way to Great Falls, Montana and the scenery - WOW. Enjoy: I just love those mountains! Rolling hills with lots of green: Almos...
May 17, 2013 Downtown Bozeman
Categories: Montana
One of the many things that has impressed me about the small towns in Wyoming and Montana is that their downtowns are maintained and vibrant. And Bozeman is no different. After running a few errands, Andy and I parked the car and toured a few of the blocks. The streets were full of people...

Spokane’s Historic Steam Plant
Categories: Washington
Another great place to see in Spokane (and bring out-of-towners) is Spokane's historic steam plant. It originally heated the city. It's now a restaurant with offices in the upper levels, but the great thing is that during renovations, they kept a lot of the old features of the original steam plan...
A Tale of a Tail

Below is a phone conversation between my friend and I. His comments are in italics.
Are you keeping the new workamping assignment?
Yes. Harley loves it here.
Will you stay all winter too?
Good heavens no. Harley can't take the brutal winters.
So how late are you staying?
Probably mi...
That’s Odd Too

People who travel know you can never be sure what you might come across… like…
There’s something reassuring about knowing that diners with huge food signs are still around:
This creature didn’t move or it probably would have scared me half to death — it was creepy e...
Ferguson’s Cafe – Spokane
Categories: Washington
We ran across Ferguson's cafe while visiting Mary Lous Milk Bottle (which is next door). While the milk bottle was really neat and great for ice cream, the lunches we all ordered a bit disappointing. So we decided to try Ferguson's, a cute little 50's cafe on our next outing.Is this something o...

at the Countryside RV Fitness Center
We left Las Vegas already feeling the coming onslaught of the
summer heat and, just like that, it hit us in Bullhead City, just like a
15-minute sauna, except that this time ...
The views from Flathead National Forest
Categories: Montana
It’s a long, dusty ride from Hungry Horse, to the Spotted Bear Ranger Stations, and back to Martin City, but if you want views and solitude, it’s well worth the trip. Fill up the gas tank, pack a lunch & plenty of water – there are no services out here! We drove down one sid...
Authentically Out of Place and Time
Categories: California
Castello di Amorosa
The world is better for eccentrics; the artists, entertainers, scientists and imaginers who see things no one before ever did and, by virtue of their vision, take the world in a direction it never previously knew existed. Eccentricity is also the reason you can tour an authent...

Parade of Picnic Pushers
Categories: South Carolina
My new workamping spot included an 8 foot 8 ton picnic table which was located down the hill from my camper.
I began pushing it a few inches at a time. I figured I would have it up to my patio in about two weeks. Some maintenance guys came by and moved it about a foot then left. They s...

It’s Graduation Time
Categories: Washington
If you can imagine it, you can achieve it; if you can dream it, you can become it. Just like all our days seem to be, we have been very busy. It’s not that we’ve been kayaking. However, that’s on the agenda for Sunday. We’ve been busy being entertained by Jordie.&n...
June 15, 2013 – Rig Therapy
Categories: New Jersey
Rig hooked up – a sight not often seen! Today was rig therapy day. Since we sit in one spot for so long, every so often it’s a good idea to move the rig just to loosen ‘er up a bit. Disconnecting everything takes a bit of time, as does hooking us back up to utilities.&nb...
Good Tidings and Cooler Heads
Categories: South Carolina
Good tidings!
How do angels just fall out of the sky when I least expect them? It's a miracle.
I called the volunteer coordinator to ask about moving to another park or campground or somewhere (anywhere!) with shade until I sussed out this air conditioning problem. I was hoping they mig...
Graduation!

By late afternoon we had a houseful! First to arrive were Todd's parents, Jan and Jerry from Parma, Idaho. We had a nice visit with them before they went into Woodburn to check into their motel. Not too much later, Todd's bio-parents, the Boggs arrived with their son and his family. We had barely...
June 14, 2013 – Whoo?
Categories: New Jersey
Just now was outside listening to two owls converse. One was in the distance and the other was very close by. So close, in fact, that his/her calls were reverberating against the side of the mill and the river. Wow. Made Owl sound really, really big! ~~~~~~~~~~ Sherry ask...
