Why do I do this to myself…

Well, it's going to be the coldest few days for the Midwest in almost two or three decades and I just can't stop thinking about spring. Not just spring for the sake of the warmer weather and blooming flowers, but instead for the adventures that will begin another year of memories. We started out last... Continue Reading →

Let the planning begin…

The end of the RV season is upon us. After over 8,000 miles of travel in 2018, Stevie the Bus is now officially in storage for the rest of the winter. Water lines were flushed, fuel and propane were topped off, and other than the monthly start of the engine and generator to keep things... Continue Reading →

Thanksgiving…

Going to Nashville for the Thanksgiving weekend...making time for the Bourbon Trail and Craft Trail on the way down, some great music all weekend, the final race weekend of the season for Formula 1, and of course Black Friday Bonnaroo tickets!

Formula 1 Road trip!

Preparation and planning for this trip really paid off. The bus ran flawlessly through all 2245 miles round trip. With all rain in the forecast, we drove on dry roads for all but the last 2 hours of the trip as we headed in toward Circuit of the Americas near Austin, Texas. We sat through... Continue Reading →

Dealing with anxiety…

The feeling of success!

Sometimes it is the simple things in life that can bring us the greatest sense of accomplishment.

Unprepared…

This past weekend we were planning to visit Bloomington, Indiana to attend a comedy show with my favorite comedian, Marc Maron at the Comedy Attic. Being Labor Day weekend we really didn't have too many choices for camping because most of the campsites were filled up months before the performance date was released. I put... Continue Reading →

Green…and other untruths

I sat on the porch last night just looking out toward the woods. Green for as far as I could see. But then I started to really look at the details, the various shades of green from each of the different trees in front of me. The variations in color became more and more evident...

Don’t lose the vibe…

Bonnaroo 2018 was an amazing adventure, and keeping that positive vibe going is difficult. What a change a few days and a few hundred miles from Bonnaroo can make! Suzy went to the store after returning from vacation and the first person she encountered was a cashier that had clearly lost his sense of support... Continue Reading →

Free camping!

We were scheduled to return from vacation on Saturday with a six hour drive scheduled from our last campground. In a desperate effort to not return to reality too soon, we decided to spend an extra night. The campground we were in was booked solid for Saturday night so we planned ahead and made some...
