The Weekend Update













This weekend we walked the dogs a lot.  We brought them to the dog park and threw the ball for Dunc.  Maggie just runs around and rolls in the grass.  She still doesn’t get the point.  

After it got done raining on Saturday morning, we headed down to Homosassa and went to the seafood festival.  We paid to park at the elementary school and then headed in.  We
put some money into the raffles and wandered around.  We spent some cash with some local small businesses and enjoyed our time there.  It was nice being around a group like that again.  The money raised also goes back into the community to support the kids in the area.  We’ll have to go back to the H area when it’s less busy to explore the place.  

Saturday afternoon, we were invited to a few “parties” with neighbors.  We went across the street and hung out for a few hours.  It was nice to get to know our “close by” neighbors a little better.  We were told that a burning fire pit is an open invite to stop by anyones lot.  

A little later in the evening we headed down towards the west end and hung out with part of the Michigan mafia.  They introduced us to Sambuca which tastes too much like black licorice to me.  We hung out until about 9 and then came back home.  

Yesterday was pretty uneventful.  Lots of walks, we brushed Duncan for over a half hour after running him at the dog park.  We took a ride to The Loft and split a burger which was good.  We also took a bike ride to the Gulf.  We like that trail, 10.5 mile RT paved.  It was a bit windy but nice.  We ended the night with Chili and KYD, LJMJ and Traveling Robert on YouTube.

The End of 24’

 As 2024 comes to a close, we are in a cabin near Show Low AZ.  This area is beautiful at first glance and we will be here for a week.  It reminds us of Bend/Sisters, but it’s way smaller.  This is the first time Katy has been out of the RV since 12/1/20.  We are looking forward to exploring this area.  We hope everyone had a great Christmas and that you all have a happy New Year!   We took a trip up to Tucson and stayed at Catalina State Park.  It was a great trip and we enjoyed the lights at the botanical gardens.  The state park is great and really spread out.  We also had a seRV event with Full Time Families, where we made cards for the kids and families at Ronald McDonald House.  It was an amazing event and we enjoyed seeing old friends and making new ones.  The kids who participated were awesome, they helped us set up and tear down.   The next day we co-hosted another event in Sierra Vista.  We partnered with Wr...

North Again?

Well, a lot has happened in the past month.     2025 is starting off pretty big.     We had a great time in the Show Low, Pine Top and Lakeside area.     Katy and I stayed in a one room cabin with the pups and it was fun, but after a few days we missed having our own stuff and our bed.     The area is cool and we had fun exploring Greer which was like driving down to the Metolius.    We went up to the ski hill the same day.    There were 1 or 2 runs open of man made snow and about 400 cars worth of people sharing the hill.    Not our jam.    The Pinetop Brewing Co was a fun stop, they have great beers and good food.    Beer brewed at 7,000’.   We took a tour of Petrified Forest NP and really like it.    It is a mixture of Blue Basin, The Painted Hills and the Badlands with a spattering of Fossilized Trees.    It’s worth getting out and taking the short loops in the par...

Want to go to Skagway?

Friday we drove from Teslin Lake to Whitehorse Yukon.    We got on the road pretty early and were surprised to not see any wildlife along the way.    First stop was the laundromat.    Two XL washers and three dryers later and we were in business.    We met another full time couple doing laundry, who are traveling to Juneau for the summer.   Barry said they had a 5 hour ferry ride from Skagway to Juneau.    We then got to chatting about Skagway and the fact it was only two hours away.    I had been looking at it on maps but didn’t realize we were that close.    We parted ways and headed to Woodcutter’s Blanket Bar and Brewery for lunch.    Good beer…pass on the food.    While at the bar, I suggested we head to Skagway for a night or two as we will not have full hookups in Fairbanks until 5/4 ish.    I then talked myself out of it and Katy said let’s go for it.   We book...
