A new pot!

Exactly two weeks ago today, I wrote a slightly humorous post about a pot that was part of a set that we received as a wedding gift over 26 years ago.

Preparations, lists and butterflies

Hard to believe but our departure date is moving up quickly and we are starting to make the preparations needed to get ourselves on the road.

Minor electrical issues

One day last week, I noticed the 120v AC electrical to Sherman had cut out. Not a problem I thought, because we have lots of battery power. And I figured it was a campground issue, although there hasn't been any problem like this since we've been here.

A bit of this and that

First off, thank you for all those who passed on good wishes to Whiskey for a speedy recovery.  Would like to let everyone know that she is doing really well and almost seems back to normal.  She is pretty perky now and loves

Propane tank is full!

So yesterday morning I started up Sherman and took him for a drive.

Whiskey is doing fine (more of the story)

Just a quick update to let you all know that Whiskey has had her operation, and is doing fine. Will know more this evening.

Motorhome propane update

Well, Sherman's propane level is down to less than 1/8 of a tank. It's getting chilly now, and although we can easily survive with our little electric heater, I would like to have the propane tank filled up.

Lindsey, Justin and Flying

September 11th

We thought we would do a little tribute to New York City today. We were at the top of the World Trade Centre in October of 2000, only 11 months before the towers fell.

Rust and corrosion

I spent my day off Monday working on Sherman. The main thing I was working on was was the water leaks that occur in the wheelhouse area when driving in the rain.

My Mum

A year ago today I got the dreaded call from my Dad to say that my Mum (I spell it this way as this is how she always spelled it, she was British) had passed away.  We knew it was coming and had for a couple of weeks, it was just a matter of when.

Blog statistics

Ruth mentioned that we are now up to 50 dedicated followers! We think that's a pretty neat milestone.

Leaving for Mexico next month!

Now that it is September, we get to say that we are leaving for Mexico next month! I have a feeling the next few weeks leading up to that will go by very quickly.
