Swimming to Shivering in less than a week…

On the Road again – after we went to Andersonville, we boondocked for the night in a Walmart parking lot.  We woke up the next morning to a low tire on the van; there was an industrial strength screw in it.  We drove it over to the Walmart tire and lube to have them fix […]

Christmas…

This is what happens when you tell Molly that she can make her own sandwich…yuck.  we had to take half of it off (but no, we didn’t burst her ‘I’m so proud’ bubble)! LOL! We have lots of deer to watch at this park too…The guys have been doing their usual thing…They’ve been troopers about doing a […]

Campground Fun & Vehicle repairs…

We have been keeping busy during our extra time here near San Antonio! We (meaning Vaughn and one of the boys) redid the bathroom.  I’ll have to remember later to take a picture – nothing extensive, but we are liking the practicality and convenience! On Thursday, Beth and I went into town to pick up […]

Taking it easy…

We’ve been so busy in the sunny south, doing nothing, that I haven’t had time to catch up! LOL! We had a lovely Thanksgiving!  We might have a small kitchen, but Bethy and I managed to whip up a fairly traditional meal.  We baked 4 pies (cheater pies with purchased pie crusts!), one at a […]

Finally ‘down south’, traveling to Texas…

Last Monday we left Montana.  We ended up leaving in the afternoon hoping to beat a cold front.  We only made it to Gillette, WY – which was not on our itinerary! LOL!  It’s very easy to miss where the highway splits when it’s dark out and you’re gabbing a mile a minute!  😉   But, that’s how […]

Carving Pumpkins…

My kids have never celebrated Halloween.  We look around at all the evil being embraced, and want our family to have no part of it.  It is no longer a holiday of princess, knights, and Casper the Ghost, but instead it’s cool to dress up like a sleaze, a murderer, or their victim.  That’s not cool. We […]

Christmas… holidays in an RV…

We had a lovely Christmas in our RV – being in 400 sq. ft. together doesn’t dampen the warm Christmas spirit around here.  but being away from our 2 bigs does     the only way our celebration could have been better would have been if Greg and Hannah could have been here with us.  This is how […]

Celebrating Christmas in an RV …it's beginning to look Yuley around here!

Celebrating Christmas in an RV – I’m not sure what possessed me, but while we were at Balmorhea I pulled out nearly everything that was stored under our master bed, and retrieved the ‘Christmas box’.  I don’t usually get the Christmas decorations out until much closer to Christmas!   There aren’t a lot of holiday things that we save from year, […]

Celebrating Thanksgiving in an RV…

Sometimes I wish that we were better planners.  But then I usually realize that it wouldn’t matter if we were because things seldom go as planned anyway.  We ended up leaving Lake McClellan the day before Thanksgiving.  We had planned to get to Monahan Sandhills State Park to spend Thanksgiving, but we were running late, […]
