A Short Tour of Athens, AL

October 12, 2026 On September 27, I put most of my harvest of the Thai Long Horn peppers and Thai peppers into my vintage Ronco dehydrator. After breakfast, Bruce asked me what I wanted to do for the day. I wanted to go to Isom’s Orchard and pick apples. On the way, I suggested we […]

Eye Doctor Visit, Moving the RV and Salad from the Garden

April 22, 2025 Yesterday (April 21), I had an appointment with the eye doctor. The cataract in my right eye has gotten worse. I decided to bite the bullet and get cataract surgery scheduled. After my appointment, we went to the Florence AL RV Park and moved the RV. We were both so glad we […]

Moved to McFarland Campground in Florence, AL

September 7, 2024 On Friday (September 6), we packed up the RV and moved all of 10 miles, across the Tennessee River, to McFarland Campground in Florence, AL. We couldn’t renew our spot at Heritage Acres and if we stayed there, we’d have to move to a more expensive spot, $15 more. We looked around […]

A Visit to TVA Wheeler Dam Overlook and Colbert Alloys Park

September 1, 2024 We looked at a house just outside of Elgin, AL. Afterwards, we stopped at a seafood restaurant, Lash Seafood. I would give it 3 stars and I am not tempted to try their cooking again. They also sell fresh seafood, so that may be worth stopping in for. We crossed the Tennessee […]

Review of Walt’s Four Seasons Campground and Country Store in Abilene, Kansas

July 7, 2024 On Tuesday evening (July 2), while walking Nox, we enjoyed a spectacular sunset.

Windstorm at RV Park

July 5, 2024 One thing about Golden, Colorado, it can be very windy. The wind can come howling out of the mountains and hit the front range like a hammer. On June 27 (Thursday), we had wind gust of 35 to 45 miles an hour, with some occasional gust up to 65 miles an hour. […]
