In a blog post a while back, I said I was looking for an old floor model console radio to put in my office. When I was a kid I loved those old radios and when I was in high school, old console and table model radios were everywhere and you could pick them up […]
Yesterday we had a visit from a celebrity from the RV world. Our friend Al Hesselbart drove up from Bushnell to spend the afternoon with us. We had not seen Al since last summer when we were at Elkhart Campground in Indiana and we were really looking forward to his visit. If you don’t know […]
I spent most of last week writing, and for the last three days I had done over 10,000 words in my new book. So yesterday it was time to take a day off. Terry had seen some nice pieces of coral at the local flea market in nearby Oak Hill, so we started the day […]
