Visitors are what makes a house feel like home, especially family visitors. Besides celebrating Independence Day, the 4th of July also brought the other half of our immediate family out to Arizona to see us. Our other son, and our soon to be daughter-in-law (just 14 days from the day I am writing this) came … Continue reading East Comes West
Roadtrip to Alamo, Tx visiting family
This past week we decided it was time for a road trip. The convergence of being months since we got out of town and on the road, and wanting to see Jennifer's Dad and wife, Otis and Judy, made for the perfect excuse to put some road beneath our tires and miles behind us. So … Continue reading Roadtrip to Alamo, Tx visiting family
Back on the Trail – Finally
These last two months of moving in and getting settled in our house has wrecked havoc on our leisure activities. Golfing, hiking, exploring and date nights were shelved for unpacking, sorting, hanging pictures, construction and installs. Feeling completely exasperated with the sense of being held prisoner in our own home, we made a breakout escape … Continue reading Back on the Trail – Finally

New Year’s Day Hike: Another new tradition
2018 started off with a bang. Literally. A couple of old fogies, we went to bed well before midnight. We did get to wake up at midnight to ring in the new year thanks to the fireworks all around town. So we kissed, said Happy New Year and went back to sleep! Ha-Ha! Apparently … Continue reading New Year’s Day Hike: Another new tradition
Anniverary Weekend: Wine, Leno and Bowling
What do you do when you are living in an RV to celebrate 33 years of marriage? Why plan a big weekend of activities of course. The celebrations started on Thursday and ran all the way through the weekend. We started things on Thursday with a trip to Sonoita, AZ for some wine tasting. Our … Continue reading Anniverary Weekend: Wine, Leno and Bowling
Christmas in Tucson; Traditions New and Old
Wow, is it Christmas already? So hard to believe how fast time flies. This year, for us, had quite a few firsts, as well as adopting some local traditions.

We are all settled down in our spot here at Davis-Monthan … Continue reading Christmas in Tucson; Traditions New and Old
