One of the things I’m most proud of is my kids’ ability to look out the window while we drive. Yes, on this trip, I’ve let Jane and Wilson watch a DVD or two on our long drives. I’ll be the first to admit that they’ve seen more TV this year than they ever have […]
Picking Apples at Indian Creek Orchard, Ithaca, New York
We’ve spent the last five days just outside of Ithaca, New York. We all have been mesmerized by the fall here. It is nothing short of spectacular. Being the typical fall-loving mom that I am, I was sure to scout out some apple picking while we were in apple country. Indian Creek Orchard is everything […]
Squirrels’ Rights at Seneca Falls, NY
No, Mark didn’t kick another squirrel. But Jane did think we were campaigning for their rights. Here’s the story. When we decided to visit Ithaca New York, it was obvious that we needed to visit Seneca Falls National Park which was about a 30 minute drive from our campground. It’s an election year and a […]
Things I’m Really Going to Miss
You all know I love to share what drives me nuts about living in a tiny Airstream and our trip. And since we’ve been blogging I’ve also learned that YOU all LOVE when I share what I hate too. Sorry, I’m not sorry. This is a post about the little things I’ll miss when we […]
Voting on the Road
Based on the intensity of the political posts I’ve seen on Facebook and Twitter, I’m glad I’ve been largely disconnected from mass media this year and avoided the incessant political commercials on television and radio. My view of the web and social media streams are still covered with Trump and Clinton banner ads, but I […]
Jane and Wilson’s Favorite Shirts
One of my mom’s sweet friends, Donna, sent us these adorable t-shirts for Jane and Wilson. The kids love to wear them. They really love to wear them at the same time and match. I can’t tell you how excited they were to get a chance to wear them on our tour of the Airstream […]
Holiday Traditions, AirStream Style
Being a total basic, I love fall. Though I dislike pumpkin spice lattes. Gag! I attribute it to having lived in Florida from ages 0-18 and never getting to experience the change in season. Those Floridians, they’re deprived of basic human joys! Back at home I would spend time to plan out three areas in […]
Celebrating Oktoberfest in Minster, Ohio
Over the weekend, we attended our first fall festival, the long-running Oktoberfest in tiny Minster, OH. There is apparently a dense German population in rural northern Ohio with some cities having a German population greater than 70%, and it seems every town has an Oktoberfest. Minster’s drew thousands of folks from the region, and it […]
Kind Kids
So I’ll attribute this 100% to Daniel Tiger. It has nothing to do with me. I’m not an overly “kind” person. But my kids are! Jane and Wilson have each adopted an adorable trail behavior. When we go for hikes, Jane will take a sheet of stickers and whenever we pass someone else on the […]
Katie’s Weekly B*tch Sesh
Are you tired of me complaining about our really fun life yet? NO? Ok! Good! I’ve thought of something totally gross that I can’t stand about living in the Airstream that I have yet to whine about to you kind folks. Our towels make me wretch. I’m guessing your first thought is that they smell […]
