While NASA just can’t seem to get it together to launch their Artemis rocket toward the moon, last night Space X had another successful launch from Cape Canaveral, carrying a bunch of Starlink satellites into space. They did another launch just a few days ago. Granted, their rockets are not as powerful and not going […]

The Artemis rocket launch scheduled for yesterday afternoon was scrubbed again, to the disappointment of hundreds of thousands of people who came to see the historic event. NASA said it was due to more fuel leaks, the same issue they had earlier in the week. As of last night, they didn’t know when they were […]

NASA’s Artemis rocket launch, which was scrubbed a few days ago, is now supposed to take place this afternoon. The two-hour launch window opens at 2:17, and the weatherman gives it a 60% chance of favorable conditions. The news reported that as many as 400,000 people are expected in the small town of Titusville and […]

While overall, RVing is one of the safest lifestyles there is, we must always keep in mind that no place is ever 100% safe. A man killed two people, held a woman prisoner and sexually abused her for several hours at the Orlando Thousand Trails Wednesday, before being captured a few miles away, after she […]

Before I do anything else, let me wish our country a happy birthday. It seems like a bleak time in America right now, and it is, with all the political division, the racial strife, and a pandemic that is dividing us in so many ways. But there is something about this country that people need […]

I want to start off today’s blog by saying a big thank you to so many people who already purchased Big Lake Quarterback, shared links to the book with your friends on social media, and sent me messages telling me they already purchased the book and are reading it. Yesterday afternoon, 24 hours after it […]

Thanks to the hard work of Miss Terry, my friend Roberta Jensen, and another dear friend, Cool Judy Rinehimer, who all went above and beyond the call of duty, they completed the several stages of editing and proofing my newest book, Big Lake Quarterback, and I uploaded it to Amazon yesterday afternoon just before 4 […]

Definition of potpourri – 1: a mixture of flowers, herbs, and spices that is usually kept in a jar and used for scent. 2: a miscellaneous collection. The second definition above pretty much describes today’s blog, a collection of miscellaneous thoughts and info that I’m sharing because I really don’t have anything else to talk […]

It was down in the low-60s and windy yesterday, then dropped down in the mid-40s last night. Today the high is supposed to be in the low to mid-50s, and tonight we will see the low 40s, possibly even dropping down as low as 30 degrees at some point. And Wednesday won’t be much better. […]

A couple of times over the years we have talked about getting a bidet because people who have them have told us about their many benefits, including better personal hygiene and cleaning, reducing the impact we have on the environment, and comfort of use. Bidets also can prevent clogs and reduce plumbing problems. But that’s […]
