New Schedule
































We made it through the “hectic rodeo season”.  All joking aside, the park was very busy.  I used some jerbal vudu for the first time in a long time.  We also started our new schedule and had some time to explore.  

We did a day trip up to Fredericksburg and wandered the town again.  It was funny that we were there exactly a year before.  We had lunch at the Fredericksburg Brewery and got a glass of wine from Grape Creek to walk around town.  It was nice walking around and the town was a lot busier than last year.  On a sad note, several places were shut down.  

We also visited Bending Branch winery in Comfort which was a nice place.  We did a tasting and left with a bottle of Rose.  It was 88* last Tuesday and the temp was 33* on Wednesday.  Quite the ups and downs here.  

This weekend we headed up to Wimberly Texas which is a really cute town.  It’s like Sisters OR, meets Texas.  We went to Blue Hole Park and another swimming area with a nice bar and deck.  The patrons were overly excited by a soccer game which was one in OT by a exhilarating touchdown.  We stayed on the deck and enjoyed a cider and IPA.  It would probably be a great place to get on the water in warmer weather.  

Monday we headed for Boerne and had some BBQ at the original Rudy’s.  We then headed for Hill Country and visited Sister Creek Winery.  It’s in an old cotton gin and the building is pretty great.  The wines were good and we left with a bottle of Chardonnay.  We took the backroads home and grilled some burgers.  

Yesterday we had Sis in the shop to get the front axle replaced.  It went well and we brought the dogs to the vet for yearly shots etc.  That was a large bill, but we’re glad we got in on short notice.  After picking up the trailer, we went to Discount Tire and put new shoes on her.  Another large bill, but we now have 10 ply tires.  

Today we were back to work and there’s not much to report about that.

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...
