It is days before the home school convention I will be speaking at and sure enough I got poison ivy on my chin. Can you believe that? We live in our camper – in the woods…but still…right before the convention? The leaves have filled the forests. The campground is in full bloom and pollen is… Read More Camping in the Woods Has Its Problems
Another day in the National Forest. Each day brings new adventure and great memories. After breakfast, chores, and bible study, I took the kids for a walk. Gabriel flew by on his bike; riding on the road half the time and in the ditch the other half. Josie was pretending to be a mommy while… Read More Daddy is so Strong!
Sometimes in the winter, we just have to get out and go for a ride. So, for recess, Gabriel and I took our UTV into the woods to check out the snow fall and the beautiful woods. It was a lot of fun to have some alone time with him, although my oldest son, Cody,… Read More Taking a Break in the Snow with the UTV
After spending many hours researching campgrounds and bible camps to do missions work at, I thought I had a pretty good plan. We’d leave the Mesa Verde, Colorado area and spend the winter wandering around New Mexico, western Texas, back to parts of Arizona then north again in the spring to explore Utah and then… Read More Over the mountains and thru the woods to Missouri we go…
We went from the beautiful Colorado aspen forests to the stunning Missouri fall colors. But, all too quickly the leaves fell and now we sit here, in the cold, freezing our traveling rear ends off. “Move!” You say. I know, our home has wheels so why don’t we just up and leave? Head south, go… Read More Brrr…it sure is cold!
Lake Wappapelo, in Southeast Missouri was a great place to stay. It is one of those few areas that we would consider moving to when we are ready to settle down. The small town, self-sufficient, not a suburb, was very appealing to us. But, since this is the kayaking article, I best stick to that… Read More My memories of kayaking Lake Wappapelo, pregnant!
No, we did not fall off of the face of the earth. A few weeks ago, one of my sweet children set my laptop on my black office chair with the mouse in between the top and bottom of it. I began to sit down on the chair, not suspecting the laptop to be on… Read More I am back!
Every now and then I need to stop. Stress and energy levels get higher and crash, respectively. Sometimes during our travels, we park it for a while. We may move a lot for three to five months, then we just sit for a few months. We just spent a wonderful seven weeks at my mother’s. … Read More Oh no, I am babbling….
Thank goodness the worst is over. I can’t believe how much stuff we had crammed in 42 feet. Bad news is that we filled our storage trailer. We have had to stuff boxes in my mom’s attic. She has been so great to let us do that. Traveling full time can get exhausting. We have… Read More Sorting the camper and taking a break
It is hard to believe it has taken me so long to sort all of this. I spent last Saturday digging through the front part of our storage trailer. I had to move a few boxes and then slide my body on top of all of the others to the middle of the camper. I… Read More Almost done sorting….where do we go next?
