Everybody says it’s going to be a long, cold winter, and I believe that might be true. It got down into the 50s Saturday night and I was grateful for the blanket Terry draped across the foot of the bed. It wasn’t long before it got pulled all the way up! It was another day […]

Or even waddle. It was 92 here in Colonial Beach yesterday with sky-high humidity. In other words, it was a good day to stay home and give our Winnebago’s air conditioner a good workout. Hopefully it will start cooling down so we can enjoy getting out and exploring the area. Being at home meant that […]

Or at least I would if I delivered mail on the streets where these cool custom mailboxes can be found!

No, that’s not the title of a new book I’m working on, but it would make a good one, wouldn’t it? Actually, it refers to something that has had us wondering all week long. Ever since we arrived in this friendly little Potomac River town, we have noticed these road signs, which we are familiar […]

Well, I’ve put it off as long as I can, but our two weeks here at the Hershey Thousand Trails is over, and it was down in the 30s last night, so it’s time to move on. Today we’re headed for the Harborview Outdoor World Resort in Colonial Beach, Virginia, which is about 200 miles […]

In yesterday’s blog, I wrote about all of the stinkbugs here at the Hershey Thousand Trails preserve, and I said a couple of things about them that apparently ticked them off. So they decided to take things to a new level, just to let me know who was boss. I was getting dressed, and about […]
