Tennessee June 24, 2021

I am in love with Tennessee and Hipcamp.com! Last night, for only $35, we stayed at Dusty Hill Farms with Paula as our gracious host! Horses, huge fields for our dogs to run and play (a welcome break from having to be on a leash all the time), stunning views from the top of The South Holsten River Dam only 10 minutes away, private bathroom and shower, fresh coffee in the AM, and a midnight walk in the light of a full moon with the sweetest smell of fresh air and grassy fields. It was peaceful, quiet, and a little piece of heaven on earth!

Goodbye Family June 24, 2021

Farewell to our sweet family and on to the OPEN ROAD! (with only a slight delay due to a tire issue and carsick dog, who the vet says, needs a little Dramamine) 🥴

Fairfax County Park June 23,2021


Goodbye Fairfax County Park in Reston, VA. For campers: Super clean, private family bathrooms and nice showers, massive grounds with skate park, swimming park, and more, and 5 min from my sister!

National Park Passes June 22, 2021

Such a beautiful day! Got our national park passes today from the sweetest park ranger, then spent the evening with one of my dearest friends from college and his beautiful wife. They have a wonderful big table on their deck and guests get to carve their names into the table. Thank you Steve and Vallerie Martin for a delicious meal and a magical evening. Forever Friends are a gift from God. 💞🙏💞

Setting Up Camp June 21, 2021


I am embarrassed to admit that Ernie has always been the one to set up and break down the camper on our camping trips…well today, all of that changes. Happy Father’s Day Beloved Ernie!

The Jersey Shore June 20, 2021

A glorious day at The Jersey Shore. The ocean calms my soul in ways I can’t explain.
