  • Ashville, NC (April 18)

    We visited the Moses Cone House. It was not open, so we just walked the grounds. I remembered going here when I did my trip with Mama, so I really wanted Ed to see it. The first photo is the house, the second is the horse stable. This is such a beautiful place! I convinced…

  • Floyd, VA (April 16)

    We headed out on our second day of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Stopping along to enjoy the vistas and short hikes. We knew this would be a 1/2 day, as we wanted to see Floyd, VA and it was not far from where we began the day. We stopped at a Mill on the parkway…

  • Staunton, VA (April 14)

    We drove to Staunton, Virginia and stopped at the welcome center and the Covington Covered Bridge. I will forever have a love of covered bridges.

There is a certain peacefulness about it. On April 4, we went letterboxing. We visited Annie Oakley’s gravesite and We then went to…

  • Bluffton KOA (March 30-April 3)

    Moved to Bluffton, Indiana today. This is the last campground for a while. We will be emptying all the contents of the RV, and I do mean ALL the contents, to storage. The RV has to be completely empty for the factory to do all the repairs and framework. So, all we did was pack,…
