I know,  another campground I was just at but come on. It’s a beautiful place and I was hoping to be far enough south to avoid the snowfall thst came across the south. Not so lucky with the cold but I can easily say I wasn’t bored. Long hikes bundled up and 1 day chilling in Pearl. I say chilling but I was toasty warm inside. Hoping the warm weather will be here soon!!

I know,  I’ve been here recently also. Plans keep changing and I thought I was just here as a break before heading to Evans. Mother Nature had other plans. Like Snow and Ice in Evans. Stop, readjust plans. I was able to extend my 1 night stay to 4, book a place farther south when the worst weather was due to hit. Mary and Dave stopped by for lunch on their way home. I soaked up some history while here.

I know,  I was just here! It’s all about travel routes and where I thought I was going. Life has a funny way of throwing curves at you. That is one of the advantages of my lifestyle. I’m extremely flexible. And I’m lucky to  get great locations to stay at. I spent a week here, hiking,  taking day trips and watching some great football. If you’re looking for a place to camp or stay at one of the many cottages this is a great place to visit.

Stephen C. Foster State Park is one of my all-time favorite places to visit. The campground is closed for upgrades to the electrical system in the campground. So I took a ride over to visit and recharge. Beautiful sunshine, the weather was a little cooler than I prefer but much warmer than it’s been.

I love camping but I’m definitely a warm weather girl. Luckily, I have enough layers to get out when it’s below 50 to enjoy the sunshine.

It’s always something when you own a home. This year, we were back on the roof at my nephew’s house. Resealing the Lanei roof. We had done a few seams last year but had to finish the rest. Not looking forward to next year when a full liquid seal will go on over it all.

Looking forward to another year of discovery! Wishing all a fantastic 2025!

Wanted to share Pearl’s new look. Oh, and I got one too!

It was another fantastic Christmas celebration. Family,  great food and lots of laughter.

Wishing you all a blessed holiday season and plenty of adventures in 2025.

The Christmas visit has begun! First stop was visiting my Nephew and his family. All of us were excited for a few days together. Each day, the kids and I took an imaginary journey in Pearl. We drove to San Francisco, Eureka, California, and took a bridge to Hawaii and drove around the island. Next day, it was Italy! And then in the afternoon we went to Paris! I totally enjoyed their great imaginations. I pretended to be 7 years old and my name was Amy.

They also entertained me with SHOW! Each one sang or were performing dance moves. Loved the energy!
