Happy New Year!!!
Sandy and I actually made it up to see the old year out and the new year in. We made our annual journey to Razoo’s and took our picture at the tree in Sundance Square. Went and saw the parents and made it home by sunset. Spent the first day of the year relaxing and…

Amazon Prime – Paused
While Amazon is my first go to for finding stuff, I usually then find it cheaper elsewhere. I can’t find anything other than TNF on Prime TV and even Amazon said over the last 12 months I’ve saved $68 being a Prime member. So it was hard to swallow paying $139 for another year of…

Solar Plunge
One of the things that we learned on our last trip in the RV is that we are woefully unprepared for boondocking with the main issue being that the battery wouldn’t hold us overnight. Also, I’ve got the wrong battery type, I needed to have one that doesn’t start a car with a high voltage/short…

Movie – Private Benjamin (1980)
I did enjoy this movie when I was a kid and we’ve had it on Plex forever and I wanted to get Sandy’s take on it. It’s still an amusing little show and it is empowering for women but it does kind of leave you hanging in the end and doesn’t really come to a…

RV has New Shoes
Because of the flat we had on the way back from the Grand Canyon, the RV needed new shoes. This is my first time buying tires for a trailer and they’re evidently a lot different than car tires in that they don’t drive. I got them from Walmart, here is the invoice. I had them…

Long Time No See
So apologies for the delay in the current content. I’m still struggling with managing content that was developed in the last expedition. And honestly, there’s been a bit of a lag getting back on the computers. It will correct itself in time. More soon.

Aberdeen Trip
So with a day to kill we took the hour drive to Aberdeen, WA. The birthplace of one Kurt Cobain. We took a look at the memorial which was underneath a bridge that looks to be where the neighborhood kids met up to get high. I talked with a kayaker who went to the same…

Mount Rainier
As much as I wanted to get an early start to the day, the campsite we are at is under a pretty heavy canopy and it takes a while for the sun to find us. Long story short we got a late start to the day but we headed out to Mount Rainier. It’s a…

Downtown Seattle
We went to downtown Seattle today. Even though it was a Saturday, traffic was stunningly bad both coming and going on I5 to the point where I had trouble contemplating what rush hour must be like. Sandy was kind enough to pull up grunge related sites but when it came down to it a lot…

Mattress Follies V2
Well it’s done, we got a mattress at the place Sandy’s friend suggested and it was $300 cheaper than the one we had to cancel BUT, it’s a 14 inch mattress, even I needed to get a step stool so I could get into bed properly. But it is comfortable and that I think is…
