This time of year the male woodpeckers will find the loudest thing to bang on because, as a bird expert here told me, The loudest male gets the most females to choose from... The D#$% things like to wake us up around here by banging on the metal wheelbarrow under our window. We move the...

Maki sounds like you might need to make sure your camera is close.

There are a lot of parks in Washington. There are also a lot of campers this time of year. If you can camp without power or full hook-up you can probably find places, but not much available if you start looking Thursday thru Saturday. Most state parks fill up fast and you will need reservations...

This has been a hard road you both have had to travel, please take the time now to do what you need to do, to grieve and heal yourself.

Welcome your sure to get good info here. I share food too. There is always a good feeling to feeding folks. I love it too. Though my gardening itch has left me. I know where the farmers market is I know where to produce section is and the #$% weeds I been pulling for 30+ yrs have won the...

If it is a frequent thing, carry a small battery powered BP machine. My folks both have BP issues so we had, last year when they were both having issues, nightly jokingly BP test parties and found hubby to be Very dangerously high and made a fast as lightening trip to ER when checked there it...

The PNW is experiencing a cool summer so far only 2 days over 70 on the west side so make sure you bring blankets.....

Maki just reminded me about ice cream making that we used to do with the kidos. Most of us don't have room for an ice cream maker in our set up, but I bet you have room for 1 large and 1 extra large zip lock baggies. Mix your cream mixture something like 1/2 cup or so of cream or coffee...

Have you ever made ice cream in 2 large ziplock bags? Fill one with ice cream mix remove as much air as possible and then put that bag inside a bigger one with lots of ice and salt and mix until ice cream is soft service frozen. I bet you have room for 2 ziplock baggies. Thank you for reminding...

I should have also noted Most of these girls don't do much 'camping' 1 has an RV but the others will be bringing their own tents. I expect that my kitchen will be the one we use as the RV one is 'inside' the RV and it is a small RV, my kitchen is on the outside of my van so nobody needs to be...

I have a few girlfriends that want to join me for a girls only weekend camp out. We are all over 50 and some well over (me) and we all love our hubbies but, time for some girl time. Now I am looking to find some things to do, not that at our age we need to be entertained but...... I love...

Apples, raisins, cranberries and maybe whole wheat flour. Ok now we are going over the top as far as healthy!

We live on a curve that up until 3-4 yrs ago we could count on someone going off the road into a ditch on one side or the other several times a summer, usually just messed up their cars, only one real injury. but still a nasty curve for school kids to deal with when catching the bus. The road...

Sounds yummy! wonder if I also added a small bit of grated apple... I made a new rule. If I eat something it has to have something healthy in it. As in a tiny bit of apple in a cinnamon roll.

Being able to park in a regular parking space is more important to us then inside eating. I don't want to cook on the inside of my van either. How ever we are planning to get swivel seats in the off weather chance we need to eat inside... Seems anytime we go with friends that have nice big RV's...

The last road trip we went across the central valley in Calif. And I really hate going down I-5. I know it's the fastest way to get from point A to point B but it is so booooooring. We turned off and drove a bunch of farm roads to Lake Tahoe. I have a new love of really old tractors; yea weird I...

I just went to my first Ren Faire and it was a blast. I never knew so many of my fuddy duddy neighbors had such wild imaginations. Does anyone else go to these?

Welcome! There are a lot of good ideas and advice here. Me and my hubby are also just road trip camping through retirement. What are you looking to see? Hubby is just looking to see our own driveway but me I want to see what ever. I love to travel for food and art and just to get out of the driveway
