September 22, 2017 What a trip! Talk about a rollercoaster. Up and down, in and out, crazy grades, beauty beyond imagining and two tired human beings. The last two hours were especially rough—why is it always the END that’s so rough? The roads were very bumpy, but a different kind of bone shuddering bumpy. The camper …

September 19, 2017 We got up early and headed toward Montana. I noticed these huge wooden fences in spots along Interstate 90. Does anyone know what they are? They are easily 10 feet or higher and made completely of wood. Several of them appeared to have mile markers attached to them. Weird, we thought perhaps …

Tidbits and take-aways: Soaking beans before cooking is important after all. I was rooting through the cabinets looking for inspiration when I found a baggie of baby lima beans I bought forever ago at a local market. I LOVE BEANS. Also happened to have all the fixin’s for a yummy pot. To heck with …
September 17-18, 2017 We had some devastating news this weekend. Joe’s dad, Jack, had a stroke. He is stable now but his speech has been affected. He will need rehab after he is discharged from the hospital. Poor Joe is torn right down the middle. Our current camp @ Devil’s Tower closes at the end …

September 11, 2017 The drive to Devil's Tower was just a few hours. It started a little stressful with tight construction in downtown Rapid City, SD. Google Maps doesn't realize we are in an RV and we always risk being on a road not made for us. It's stressful but part of it, I …

September 5, 2017 Super cool drive here. Mostly typical prairie with more sunflower fields—I wanna check my next sunflower package to see if it comes from SD—who knew? Most notably was our stop at 1880 Town. Joe was in heaven. It was pretty cool. All authentic buildings brought to this site to create a …
September 4, 2017 Joe and I woke late feeling all groggy and happy when we realized we had to be out by 11a. We thought checkout was 1p so hadn't done any prep packing last night. While he wrestled the blasted bike onto the truck, I wet my hair to tame bed head and started …
