Airstream dreamin’ in our new home
Today was just another day in the world of sKY and slaDE in our life on the road. We planned to do some shopping at the Airstream store and then try to get away at a decent hour so that we could bypass traffic in Toledo and Detroit. But before our departure, slaDE wanted to…
Touring the Airstream factory in Jackson Center, Ohio was one of my shining moments on this trip. To many non-RVers, this may sound rather boring and a stretch of imagination, considering the life we’ve led in our journeys over the past 6 months. However, if you have ever owned, travelled or stayed in an Airstream,…
Having arrived late last night in Waller Texas, it was only this morning that upon stepping out of our Airstream into the warm glistening sunlight that I realized our return to Skydive Houston was feeling much like a return to home for me. This morning slaDE extended all the awnings and set up shop for…
Alas, the time had come for us to return to our beloved home on wheels. So much to see and do. And trying to cram it all in was proving to be a joyful albeit somewhat tiring task. But never one to complain about the joys of our nomadic freedom, I was excited about the…
Arising early, we got off to one of quickest morning starts yet on this adventure.

Feeling in an auspicious mood, hubby and I set out on the road early, anxious to make our way through to Northern California, escaping the chaos of Los Angeles. The views of the surrounding mountains were breathtaking, but I could sense the impending stormy weather, The temperature was slowly dropping and rolling clouds were moving…
slaDE~ and I had planned to leave early morning, making our way through Texas along scenic US90, perhaps making it through to El Paso in one day. But fate had other ideas in mind. You see, Barbie the new Mother goat, died this morning, along with her first born who succumbed to this fate shortly…
It’s been a fun week of living on the farm, experiencing the joys of birth and the lows of flooding. Exploration beyond our corralled walls was actually contained to a minimum from our usual convention of adventurous exploration, flying by the seat of our pants. The expansion this week came from within, delving into the…
Well, we survived through night 1 of the Arctic blast. Our pipes seem intact (only after pulling my husband away from the boob toob to drain the pipes and shut off the valve to the now frozen water line) but the electricity went out sometime in the night. The only reason that I know it…
With each passing breath / moment / day, a new beginning and opportunity comes our way. But especially on a day like today, a New Years Day, with the monumental passing of one decade into another, new reflections on the past year can define the importance of growth & change in our life. I ask myself, what…
