Always planning and Recap

We're coming up on the end of summer and 2019 has been a great year so far. There have been some down times but there always are. Here is where we stand:

Highlights so far this year:


  1. Took Chappy to GA for work in March.
  2. Spent a week with family in Florida in March.
  3. Went to Michigan and South Dakota in May.
  4. Found a campground to park Chappy between trips.
  5. Traded in Delilah and brought home Bodie
  6. Had great times with family that visited Ohio!
  7. Spent two weeks in Michigan visiting family and friends.
  8. Lost Saratoga. :(
  9. Donk injured her leg and is recuperating from surgery.
  10. Kitchen flood of 2019 results in unplanned renovations in the Ohio house.
  11. Canceled yearly Gettysburg trip
Things we are planning and are in the works:

  1. Another trip to Michigan to drop off Chappy.
  2. Trip to Michigan for Thanksgiving
  3. Trip down to AZ
  4. Trip to California and holidays with Kids and family.
  5. Trip to Florida to visit family in the spring
...but now we are getting into activities for next year, and I think next year has potential to be even more eventful than this year.  We may not travel as much, but we may have some bigger announcements to make as time progresses.

So with all that we have done and all that we have yet to do this year, it is time to take stock, get some general maintenance items done on Chappy, clean out the clutter and continue planning and this time for a longer haul.  Two weeks has been our longest stint on the road so far, and we are planning to be out for months and eventually maybe even longer.  We'll see!

More to come as we get closer.

Here is a video of us taking the Grandpuppy for a walk!

There and back again....

We had a great two weeks in Michigan.  It was nice to visit family and friends although extremely hectic since I only took 1 day off during the time.  It seems we were constantly busy, going places to visit people, having people stop by, or driving.  Still it was a good time. Plans from here?  Well, we've decided to cancel our annual Gettysburg trip again.  This time it seems that there is just too much to do in preparation to leave again for AZ, so we've decided to stick around.  The Covid would limit what we can safely do too much for us to go this year. We will however, still be making our trip back to Michigan in October, immediately followed by our return trip to AZ!  More to come as we get closer.

Missing Chappy

It's not even been two entire weeks and I miss Chappy.  Since we took him out to the summer campground I've been really wanting to go out there and this long holiday weekend is the perfect time. The site that we were put at is very nice.  It has a deck that was made by the last residents and it works perfectly for us.  We'll be heading out there after I get done with work and I can't wait to sit on the deck and enjoy the fire pit tonight with a cold beer and maybe my pipe.

Long time no update - So I'll make it a long post!

 Sorry for the long delay in updating here.  There has been a lot going on and we are gearing up for even more activity over the next month. So what has been happening?  Well, the fun never stops that is for sure.  Work activities aside we have been doing a decent amount of work around the house, but you'd never know by looking at it.  A few weeks back we had a tree fall on the house.  Luckily, there was no Major damage, just some gutters that still need to be put back up and a couple of scratches, and dents.  The only real damage luckily was to my awesome Weber grill.  Poor guy had a wheel bent over that now needs replaced, but with the weight of a large tree on him it is impressive that he just has a tiny dent otherwise and works like brand new.  I'm no product spokesman for Weber, but they make an excellent, tough grill that lasts.  Can't say that about my last Sams Club grill that rusted out completely in 3 years despite only moderat...
