Do I need to say that I am still homebound? Anyway, last Sunday I had a delightful time entertaining friends with my husband. The two couples that we had over for dinner are also Rvers with class A Motorhomes. The two couples had both recently been away but neither had been in their RV’s. One [...]

Still homebound. I am itching to get on the road but work, school, and family obligations must be fulfilled. So, I have discovered a way to travel each morning. I watch Sunrise Earth. This wonderful program is an hour of recorded sunrise from somewhere on the planet. Yesterday was the Penobscot River in Maine. This [...]

My favorite place to camp in New Jersey is Belleplain State Forest in Woodbine, NJ. Belleplain is in both Cumberland and Cape May Counties, off of Rte. 347 on the way to the southern NJ shore – Cape May, Wildwood, Avalon, Stone Harbor, etc. (Look at my friend Kathy’s blog post about a day trip [...]

How do you enjoy the benefits of rving when you are homebound? Plan a future trip and imagine what can be seen from the rear view window!
I love to just open the atlas to a page and read the map. Green spaces, whether state parks, national parks, or other greens, are revealed. Colleges, universities, museums, [...]

Johnnie and I have been back for over a week and it has been difficult returning to NJ. The weather has not cool, it has been drier,and I miss the sun and warmth of AZ.
In one of the many hats that I don, I am a graduate student. In my course, Writing for Electronic Communities, I [...]

The trip home is always difficult. Johnnie and I love being on the road. We have to convince ourselves that we need to come back, to make the money for the next trip! We also start counting the days until the next trip: 121 days from today.
One thing that made part of the trip home [...]

Yesterday’s adventure was to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. It is about 1 1/2 hours from Tucson via Rte. 86 and Rte. 85. The number of shrines to those killed on this road made us leery to travel it at night, so we took the much longer route Rte. 85 to I-8 to I-10. [...]

Two nights ago, we went to look at the moon and stars. The moon was just past full, so providing lots of light, in fact too much light for optimal stargazing. But, the sky was darker and the stars brighter than what we are used to seeing in NJ. To get a dark sky, we [...]
