Headed to Darlington in a few weeks for the NASCAR race & I’ll be able to bring beer in. It is a nice gesture compared to outrageously high prices. Looking forward to Indy. My grandfather won a trip to the 1948 race as a manager of a NAPA auto parts store. I have the ticket stub and the...

171 days left in my teaching career or 113 if you subtract my 58 sick days. Both of us are retiring. 41 years for her & 37 for me. First trip will be the Indy 500.

As far as I know, the only toll road in SC is the Southern Connector which is part of I-185 near Greenville, SC. It has a cash option. I normally avoid it since it’s not much quicker for me. Definitely avoid it with the camper. Used to be a toll road on Hilton Head, but the debt was paid off so...

40th high school reunion last night. Had a good time but kind of like speed dating. Where are you at now? How about your kids? How are your parents? Are you retired yet? Good talking with you.

When we hitched the camper up a couple of weeks ago, one of the brake lights was not working on the camper. Unplugged it & replugged it several times. Checked the manual to troubleshoot the problem. Finally texted Cary/Craig (never sure who I’m texting. It’s in my phone as Cary/Craig, lol). They...

I-85 from where I am in S.C. near the Ga border all the way to Raleigh is white knuckle driving. Beyond Raleigh it gets desolate for a while. South of me is the 60 miles it takes to across the ATL metro area. God help you if get on I-285 there. I-95 & I-75 are bad too.,

This morning, Mike marker 33, an 18 wheeler with its brakes on fire. I-85 curse strikes again.

I-95 has always been cursed. In one of the videos you can see from you can see from I-85 today, you can see the Frontrow Motorsports hauler for the 34 car going by the burning truck in the median.

I-85 must be cursed. Two weeks ago, a tanker overturned on the bridge over Lake Hartwell that is the state line with Georgia. The cleanup closed the southbound lane for a couple of days. Today a a truck (18 wheeler ) overturned at Exit 19 as part of accident and this one included a hazardous...

Got these Velcro straps with a handle to keep our hoses together when not in use. Found them at a new store in town, Rural King. Able to hang them in our storage building with this too. We now have 2 hoses because the 50 feet long hose we owned was not long enough to get water to our camper at...

Glad you are okay.

Just washed the camper and you can hardly see the scratch now. Shady Grady photo bombing me. We hang out behind the camper in the carport at home. Look under the chair. Grady is glued to me today because we were gone for a week. He showed up here a year ago. People who adopted out of the...

I think some. In the S.C. system it also depends when you make them. So the price can vary. The parks on the coast are popular so they won’t change much.

They are similar. Corgis are German Shepherds with stumpy legs. Same coat producing lots of tumbleweeds. Also, similar levels of stubbornness.

Eleven years ago when we picked up our Camp Inn at the factory, Cary told us having our 560 Ultra would make us the “Rock Stars of the campground.” Definitely felt that way at times too. If you want to achieve elite level rock star status you need to camp in a teardrop/raindrop with a Corgi...
