Welcome to my weekly update for June 12, 2022! Two weeks in a row–I’m on a roll! Last week, our adventures took a historical turn. We visited the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument, which you might know better as the site of Custer’s Last Stand. I thought the park service did a great job of […]

Welcome to my weekly update for June 5, 2022! Well, I thought I was getting back into the swing of blogging a couple of weeks ago but I was obviously wrong. Maybe this will be my week! We visited Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area and were surprised by how beautiful it is! Seeveral wild horses […]

Welcome to my weekly update for May 22, 2022! Whew! It’s been a busy six weeks. Since my last update on April 3, we had some repair work done on our RV (we stay in it while my husband is working at different hospitals around the country). We had to move into an Extended Stay […]

Welcome to my weekly update for April 3, 2022! We had a nice visit with my husband’s parents last weekend and then my sister came down to visit this weekend. As I write this on Friday afternoon, she’s working from our RV so we haven’t gone out to explore yet. I have some ideas for […]

Welcome to my weekly update for March 27, 2022! I didn’t think I would read much this week since I was getting ready for my in-laws to visit but all that cleaning left me plenty of time to rip through audiobooks. Add in a couple of books that I was almost finished with last week, […]

Welcome to my weekly update for March 20, 2022! We decided to spend last weekend in Columbia, SC. It’s the capital of the state, but–most appealing to me–it’s also next door to Congaree National Park. We’ve visited national parks in Alaska and Hawaii but we’ve never visited this park, located only about three hours away […]

Welcome to my weekly update for March 13, 2022! My aunt and uncle visited us for three days last week and we had such a good time with them. We all love to travel so that’s fun to discuss. But most importantly, we’ve barely seen them since 2019? Maybe late 2018? We had them all […]

Welcome to my weekly update for March 6, 2022! I just realized that I never shared the results of the Cybils Awards with you. I was a round one panelist for high school nonfiction. We narrowed the list down from 25 nominations to five finalists. On February 14, the winners in all categories were announced. […]

Welcome to my weekly update for February 27, 2022! We finally had warm, sunny weather this week. It felt heavenly! On Sunday, we went to the Caw Caw Interpretive Center, a county park that has trails through several different ecosystems. It’s a wildlife refuge but in late winter, we didn’t see many animals. Apparently there’s […]

Welcome to my weekly update for February 20, 2022! We went to the Charles Pinckney National Historic Site yesterday. Charles Pinckney was “a principal author and signer of the United States Constitution” according to the NPS website. He was very active in the Constitutional Convention and contributed roughly 28 clauses to the final document, some […]
