S’mores hold a special spot in my heart. We had them at every girl scout camp out and many times as a teenager hanging out at a friend’s house. Our family camping trips with our boys featured the yummy and messy treat at almost every campfire. I love seeing our boys’ messy smiles while eating…
French Quarter RV Resort
Our recent super quick trip to New Orleans was made better by being able to stay nearby. Both of us had seen rave reviews about French Quarter RV Resort and knew it was the place for us as we wanted to maximize our time being tourists. We were there St. Patrick’s Day weekend and it…
Biking NOLA
My first time to New Orleans was definitely one to remember! We stopped for St. Patrick’s Day weekend on our way home from the FMCA Rally in Georgia. Mark has been several times for work but I was a NOLA newbie for sure. It was a long drive from Perry to New Orleans and we…
Minot Musings
The 100th FMCA Rally in Minot, North Dakota is just around the corner! It’s sure to be another fabulous Rally full of information, RVs and fun. Anyone else excited? Minot dates back to vast railroad expansion in 1886 and named after Henry Minot. The town nickname, Magic City, comes from the tent town that sprang…
Blueberry Crumble Bars
We have these fabulous friends that up and moved two states away recently. Two whole states! Thankfully, they have occasions to come back and even drive through our state on their way to see their daughter. We joke that our house is their unofficial B&B. But, we weren’t going to be home on her last…
Orangeland RV Park
We found this gem of a campground during our recent trip to California. Orangeland RV Park is located in the City of Orange, across the Santa Ana River from Angel Stadium and the Honda Center, home of the Anaheim Ducks. It’s also only a few miles from Disneyland and California Adventure, making it a great…
Hawaiian Chicken Sliders
When our boys were young, we were knee-deep in sports. Baseball, football, soccer and volleyball sure kept us busy. During baseball season, sometimes our only day off was Sunday. I actually looked forward to the nights when we had two games in one night because that meant we could have another night of us all…
Happy Birthday America!
Today our wonderful country turns 243! However you celebrate this day, take a moment to think of those amazing people who came together to make this great place called the United States of America.
Patriotic Jello Parfaits
Watch it wiggle, see it jiggle, it’s Jello brand gelatin. Jello is such a fun and easy dessert. Fancy Jello desserts make their appearance every year during the holidays but they are sometimes forgotten the rest of the year in our house. If you’re looking to get your kids involved in the kitchen, making Jello…
O Canada!
Our first trip to Canada in our motor home was part of our three-week cross-country trek. We left Arizona as soon as Jeff’s last baseball playoff game was over and hit the road. To quote the song from Smokey and the Bandit, “We had a long way to go and a short time to get…
