We’re off to see the Wizard!!!! After a lovely stop in St. Louis, the hubs and I headed to Manhattan, Kansas where one of our sons and our daughter live. I haven’t seen them since March and the hubs since December, so we are quite excited! I had a little trouble finding an RV park…
July 11, 2020 – So Long, Virginia!!
Virginia, meet ‘Rona!!!!! After six and half months in Virginia, we are on the road again and SO EXCITED!! The hubs has wanted to come and explore the Washington D.C. area for years, so we were happy to be living so close but then COVID-19 happened and everything closed down – museums, parks, tours…I suppose…
May 31, 2020 – Summer is Coming!
M-m-m-my Corona!! M-m-m-my my my my my my!!! I last posted in Spring and since we’ve been locked down haven’t had much to talk about, so it comes as no surprise that the coming of Summer is my present post! The hubs and I have just hunkered down, he’s been working, I’ve been ordering things…
April 2020 – Happy Spring!
In the midst of the Virginia shut-down, we decided to head toward the Shenandoah National Park for drive-by viewing of the beginning of Spring! It’s about an hour and half drive west along beautiful, windy, country roads. It was a lovely day! We’ve also found the beauty of nature in our own…
March 16-18, 2020 – Laughing Sheep Yarns, Charlottesville and Wool Workshop, Roanoke, Virginia
The Army of the 12 Monkeys!!!! (Sometimes his titles are so obscure and seriously show our age….) The hubs has been watching the Covid-19 news A LOT (constantly) and keeping me well informed. We’ve been stocking up a bit ahead of the crowds, thank goodness, and getting ready to “shelter in place”. (Ed. Note –…
March 5, 2020 – Manhattan, Kansas and Kansas City, Missouri
So that’s what it’s called!!!!!! So, the last couple of weeks I’ve been “hibernating”. It’s what I call getting through the dreary winter months of January and February. There’s been a lot of gray skies, cold wind and rain. Still, during this, I FINALLY finished my birthday sweater! (Ed. Note – Honestly, I expected June!!!)…
February 13, 2020 – Yarnability, Two Rivers Yarns & Finch Knitting and Sewing Studio
Well, if you bribed me with food!!!! It has been raining here ALL week (not complaining, I could be in the southeast where they are flooding)!

February 7, 2020 – Catching Up
Be careful what you wish for!!!!! Well, its been a while since I last wrote. Our time in Virginia is quite different than last year. The hubs was almost always working out of our fifth wheel which meant I could take the truck and go wherever I wanted whenever I wanted. Here in Virginia, he…
January 21, 2020 – Needles in the Haymarket, Haymarket, Virginia

January 20, 2020 – Gainesville, Virginia
That’s Bull!!!! So, the last time I wrote we had arrived at our campsite at Bull Run Regional Campground in the snow. We have spent the days since then walking the dogs through Bull Run, sitting outside looking at the woods and learning how to get around. I have certainly realized that one city runs…
