We’re fully into springtime in our corner of the world. Our social media feed is full of people dusting off their rigs from the long winter and planning their summer trips. Here in Arizona, we are lucky that we can use our rig year round. I go through withdrawals when we haven’t gone somewhere over…
Downtown Perry
The weather was perfect during the FMCA Rally, with the exception of a quick shower on Friday. Thursday’s sky was bright blue and I was going to enjoy it. I walked through the vendor booths and strolled the RVs in the morning then headed to downtown Perry after lunch. The fairgrounds weren’t far so I…
Honey Spicy Chicken
Boring chicken for dinner is so last year, it’s even last decade. For far too long, convenience ruled over delicious and I’m so happy the pendulum has swung back. Todays recipes need to be full of delicious flavors, fresh, easy and fast enough for a weeknight meal. Food should taste good without all those 27-letter long…
Touring Tiffin
Red Bay is a small town with a population of about 3,000 which I have to say, is more than I thought. I figured maybe several hundred, not a few thousand. Then, as we drove into town, I wondered how many worked at the factory. It’s a cute little town. We arrived in the late…
Cool Lemon Delight
Easter in Arizona is always an adventure, weather wise. After our winters are over, we look forward nervously to the warming temperatures of spring. We don’t want the 90’s to arrive too soon because that means the 100’s are not far behind. If only we could have January and February temps year-round, sigh. Most times…
Alamo Lake, Take 2
Our last trip to Alamo Lake was an almost entirely new adventure. Yeah, we went to some of the same places but this trip was all about exploring new trails from our lake side campsite. Mark read about The Arizona Peace Trail and wanted to check it out. Turns out, Alamo Lake is almost in…
Alamo Lake
We are always on the lookout for fun places to trail ride, be it in the Jeep or RZR. Mark has a special folder on this computer for campgrounds we’d like to try along with a folder of places we’d like to ride. But but but, I get credit for finding this fun place. I…
Perry People
One thing you’ll notice besides all the pretty new RVs are the people at a rally. There are lots of them. And a whole big bunch of them are very nice. Lindsey, along with all of the hardworking FMCA staff were literally everywhere all week, camera in hand. You could see a blue FMCA polo…
Perry Days
The time had arrived! 1,924 miles later we arrived at the Georgia National Fairgrounds & Agricenter for the 99th FMCA Rally. We arrived after the parking volunteers had finished for the day and spent the night in the holding area. We deployed the slides, turned on the satellite, grabbed a beer and headed out for…
Take Me To Perry
The drive from our Arizona abode to the Perry fairgrounds was a fast one. I know, I know, many of you take many days, even weeks traveling 1,924 miles. We had to do it in a weekend, a long one but still just a weekend because of a certain word: JOB. Our original plan was…
