Now, this was different!!! We arrived in Indianapolis late Sunday afternoon and were able to get a spot at the Indiana State Fairgrounds which was nice even though the water was shut off for the winter season. (Ed. Note – Nice in the sense that it was weird in an interesting sort of way!!!) The…
January 5, 2020 – Continuing Journey
Here there be dragons!!!!! Yesterday I spent the day with my great, funny friend, Lisa, in St. Louis! The hubs and I got in Friday night and set up at 370 Lakeside Park and RV Campground in St. Peters, Missouri. We stayed at this park last year and thoroughly enjoyed it. The park had flooded…
January 3, 2020 Happy New Year!
Well, that was different!!!!! We had a lovely visit with our kids. They came to Loveland and we rented an AirBnB that had room for us all to be together for 3 nights. It was an interesting experience – staying in someone else’s home! We spent a lot of time visiting, walking in Old Town…
December 27, 2019 – Still celebrating!

Merry Holidays!!!!!!! We’re in the throes of Christmas cheer here in Loveland, Colorado! Fifth-wheel decorated, tree up and trimmed and the hubs fixing gingerbread cookies as I write this 😊. (ED.

Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!!!!!!!! It’s our second snow in Loveland this season. The first snow was like powder! We’d never seen snow like it before. Today’s was a wet snow that clung to the trees and only accumulated about an inch but everything looked like a winter wonderland! I hope…
November 11, 2019 – “Crazy” Cowl
See, I said from the beginning that the tag should read “shopping”!!! In my last post, I showed you a picture of a new skein of yarn I purchased at the Longmont Yarn Shoppe named Crazy by Stonehedge Fiber Mill. I started a new cowl with it as soon as I got home and finished…
November 2, 2019 – Longmont Yarn Shoppe, Longmont, Colorado
Yeah, I think I could live here!!!! Today was another beautiful day in Colorado (is there any other kind of day here?!), so I decided a drive to the Longmont Yarn Shoppe was in order. Longmont is about 30 minutes southeast of Loveland down county road 29. The road winds right along the Rocky Mountain…
October 27, 2019 – Just a Little Knitting
Yeah, I know what you mean!!!!! Things in my life have been a little out of sync the past few weeks but the hubs and I are in our favorite place to be (so far). We’re back in the Riverview RV Park in Loveland, Colorado. Ten minutes from downtown Loveland, ten minutes from our favorite…
October 5-6, 2019 – Taos Fiber Festival, New Mexico
What happens when you cross all the items off your bucket list?? My daughter and I drove from Omaha to Taos, New Mexico on Friday before the Taos Fiber Festival started on Saturday and Sunday. It was a lovely but LONG drive! We drove through the mountains in New Mexico that reminded me a little…
