Lightfocus: Travel Log: 2007, Year Six Already!
Will has been trying to get a picture of the snow on the mountains we see from our front window. Tricky stuff that it is, that snow melted each time he walked out with the camera. [more...]
Princess Leah loved it. She pranced about with tail high, sniffed the snow, jumped, ran in circles, paused to look at me with a "this is fun" wag, then started over with step one. [more...]
If you were to glance at the big chair, you would notice that the critters are curled up and cozy. [more...]
Sometimes life gets the hiccups. Or something. At any rate we have had an interruption to our usual life flow. [more...]
Spring approaches. Actually, spring has arrived here in New Mexico- a lovely idea, we think, after a freezing, windy and "egads, we haven't had snow here in over 10 years" kind of winter. [more...]

Kieler 8 - Bobby Unser Visits the Park
A group of motorcyclists parked next to us last nite. Those were the quietest motorcycles I have ever encountered. Each pulled little pop-up tent camper behind. [more...]
A walk out the door this morning revealed 8 inch deep ruts in the gravel lanes around the park. A certain sign that rain happened during the night. [more...]
Yesterday, we had a "get outta town" day. Seemed like it had been quite awhile since we had a day out. So we did a three state tour. Total: 64.8 miles! [more...]
I don't mean to complain, but... OK, I take that back. I'm complaining. [more...]
Traveled into Dubuque today to attend to step one of the Ford recall on our motorhome's cruise control. [more...]
This morning, we left the campground that has been home since last spring. It was hard to leave- I don't ever recall feeling sad like this when it was time to hit the road. [more...]
We've been on the road for a few days, doing our annual "traveling south". This time we headed straight south, rather than heading for the desert in the southwestern US. [more...]
Each Halloween, the "Grandpups" dress up in costume and help distribute treats to the trick-or-treaters from the neighborhood. [more...]
Did I mention we are in South Carolina? Probably I announced we were traveling again over on the Weather Wimp site. [more...]
Tomorrow begins a new trek- this time to the west. We are calling it a vacation because we have intentions of taking time off from work while we travel slowly and see the sites. [more...]
It's been a while since we talked about the critters side of the family. The reason is because there was no news. Everything is fine. Misser and Princess Leah are both doing well. [more...]
The kids sent some photos from Christmas in Indiana. Looks like the Grandpups had a great Christmas this year, too. [more...]
