Learning the intricacies of RV systems has been good for our brains. 3-week vacation coming to a close. End of the days after parking are always the best. (See photo re: Lake Marion) Lots of time to contemplate recipes ahead while Roy is driving on I95 and not much navigation required by the nervous navigator. […]
Lake Jordan State Park is a beautifully wooded, spacious camping location for staying 4 nites. No wonder it’s so popular—senior rate for site with electric/water is $27.00. So lest anyone think that RV’ing does not include daily exercise, I report our 3.5 mile walks the last 2 days and a photo of Roy’s inventive use […]
It’s been a week since we have been able to stay still; have a lovely campground; wifi; and a motor home prepared meal. As a friend in Oregon proclaims, adventure!!! We have had some including no campsites in Gatlinburg TN area; bumper to bumper traffic in Pigeon Forge; and staying overnight in the Visitors Parking […]

Very modest house with wonderful patio/porch; servants quarters with garage where his hand operated car was kept; […]
Staying in place for 3 nights and exploring the area. Pine Mountain is a very cute tiny town with wonderful antique shops. Below is a photo of a found art object for Roy’s next project???? First Surprise—our gas tank holds 55 gallons $$$$. Next surprise—never much had the hots for Walmart but they are everywhere […]
Second Day with the Thor Vegas; Continuing on Route 19; observing solar panels on both sides of the road as far as the eye can see near Butler Ga. Research: Southern Power “planted” 1070 acres and it’s “paying off.” Supper: Mom’s Vegetable Barley Soup, made at home and frozen, just for the trip. YUM!!!
Our own food, our own bathroom in our used Thor Vegas RV. Headed towards Georgia; loving small towns on Route 19 all the way. Enjoying cotton fields and pecan orchards. Farmers of Georgia, be proud. Please put signs on your crops so that we can all enjoy your hard work feeding us. BTW, Warwick Georgia […]
Daughter Stacy says ” Stop, I need to try an In and Out Burger.” On our way to the BioSphere in Oro Valley, AZ, it was time for lunch. The server say our hestation and asked if we had visited before. When we answered no, she proceeded to explain all the menu choices, as […]
Shopping in the produce market in Tarpon Springs, Fl ( a Greek-majority community), this dense zucchini was called a Greek Zucchini. Now shopping and cooking in Tucson, AZ, I am surprised to find it labeled Mexican Zucchini. Will the real genus of this zucchini be revealed? Zucchini – Wikipedia
