Note: I have been under the weather for a few days (no, not COVID) and just not getting much done, so here is an earlier blog post from our days as fulltime RVers. We were up very early again yesterday morning, which is starting to become a habit with us. A nasty habit that we […]

Rainy Day Writing

There’s no better way to spend a cold rainy day then writing, and yesterday was a perfect day for it. It never got above the low 50s and it rained off and on until sometime in the late afternoon. The only time I went outside all day was to close our gray water valve so […]

If you’re anywhere near the Oregon coast, put in your awnings, batten down the hatches, and hang on. A big storm is coming in and the weatherman says we can expect lots of rain, and 25 – 35 mile per hour winds with gusts to 45 today. It’s definitely not a day to be outside, […]

Spinning A Yarn

Yesterday was a much nicer day than the one before, lots of blue sky and in the mid-70s. So we decided to get out and have some fun. We made a stop at the post office to mail out a couple of orders, then drove about 20 miles south to Breezy Oaks Campground near Bushnell. […]

Where’s My Snorkel?

Where is my snorkel? Where are my flippers? We had so much rain come down yesterday that I may need them! It started raining early in the morning and poured off and on for the greater part of the day. We even had tornado warnings for a couple of hours during the afternoon. Fortunately, nothing […]

Out And About

Yesterday Terry was feeling better, and we both had a bit of cabin fever, so we decided it was a good day to get out of the motorhome and run some errands. Our first stop was the post office in Wildwood, to drop off some orders that came in over the weekend. Since I had […]

Yesterday was another busy day of playing tourist. I’ll tell you what, being on a permanent vacation is hard work! 🙂 We spent the day touring Old Sturbridge Village, a look at life in rural New England in about 1830. The village is a collection of old buildings moved here from all over New England, […]

We were up very early again yesterday morning, which is starting to become a habit with us. A nasty habit that we need to nip in the bud! But it was worth it, because we had a very busy day and a lot of fun too! We left the campground about 9:30 AM and drove […]

Yet Another Busy Day

Yesterday was another busy day for us. Is there any other kind? It doesn’t seem like it! Terry had ordered a new pair of glasses from Pearle Vision in Mishawaka a few days ago and they told us they would be ready in about two weeks. But they called Tuesday  to tell us they were […]

Grinding Out The Pages

The title of today’s blogs says it all, because that is what I was doing all day yesterday. Grinding out pages for the new issue of the Gypsy Journal. It’s not the most exciting or glamorous part of our job, but it’s what we’re all about. And it’s what I’ll be doing for the next […]

Miss Terry’s Smile

There’s nothing I love to see more in the world than Miss Terry’s smile. Even after all of these years together it melts me every time I see it. And I sure got to see it yesterday! Terry loves working with fibers; yarn, wool, silk, you name it and she loves it. She’s a very […]

We love small town festivals, and in our years on the road, we’ve been to many of them, from coast to coast and border to border. We’ve seen Mexican dancers at Verde Valley Days in Camp Verde, Arizona; tapped our toes to bluegrass music at the Tennessee Fall Homecoming in Clinton, Tennessee; watched basket weavers […]
