Ty and Jane Great Adventure

Happy New Year to all of our family and wonderful friends! We are all settled for the winter in our Blueway RV home until April 1, then we will head back to Estes Park CO via an unknown route at this time. Don’t want to plan too far in advance as it seems just when…

And with a snap of a finger – time to leave Estes Park East Portal. Summer is over; camping in the mountains is over – time to head out before the snow flies. And what a great summer indeed! Lots of happy campers, lots of kids (ever notice how little girls can scream?) and lots…

It wasn’t hard to leave Blueway this year – not only was it time and we were one of the few “hanger on’rs” but we were anxious to get back to the mountains. . Travels Westward We had 3 weeks to wander around on our way around and for a change decided to take all…

December 15 – April 22 I like wintering in Florida – think Ty not so much but maybe only because it is too humid and there are no hills. But it isn’t always warm in the winter – a couple of times it went down to 49 degrees and people were walking around in their…

December finds us wintering in Fort Myers, FL at the Blueway RV Village; our fourth year here. No shortages of activities for us to partake in this December (as you can see by the calendar) including a Christmas dinner for the park. And pickleball is in full swing, card games are just getting started. Ty…

Michigan was just too beautiful to leave, we don’t have any place special to go until October 15 when we have reservations at a campground near Washington DC, which made the decision to hang around pretty easy. Higgins Lake – Popular spot for us back in the days when we camped with the kids in…

We Begin the long journey to the states Poor Wanda with her broken leg, we hooked her up and began the trip to Michigan where Wanda will get her leg fixed and a few other things. So once hooked up to the truck, not going to unhook so first night we made it to Moncton…

Bid Adieu to Avalon and off we went: Ty and I and tent Mila (mobile outdoor living accommodations) to explore the rest of Newfoundland. Tent camping has its ups and downs. Ups: straining to think of some Downs: there are many many more. Eastern Coast Bonavista/Trinity – John Cabot landed here in 1497. Beautiful fishing…

Was not easy to get started, that is for sure. Maritime Ferry from Sydney NS to Argentia Newfoundland We finally deboard and head straight for visitor center for lay of land and to understand our lodging opportunities. Well, VC lady was not very encouraging as the only, and I mean only, hotels are in St.…

Last part of trip with brother Will and bride Pam – this is year 11 that we have traveled together! The Island is bigger than expected and the claim to fame, Cabot Trail did not disappoint. We hit all the orange spots on the map, the guys just driving us girls around. Word of caution,…

Yarmouth is the farthest west on NS that we can go and it is on the 10 best cities to visit in Nova Scotia. The town itself is an old typical fishing town, dependent on the tourist not so much; as it appears the town is just happy to be a fishing village. In the…

Loaded the rigs onto the Northumberland Ferry for a 75 minute ride to Nova Scotia northern coast. Back on the Fundy Bay. Pictou (pic-toe)  Headed straight for the campground to cook up Freddy and Franky. Problem is there a pot big enough to cook these boys in? My electric fry pan can hold 2 and…

Ride to PEI did not go without a hiccup – Will’s black tank handle broket that meant a stop out of the way to find a RV place. Then we all begin again; as we were flying down the highway some nice guy pulls along side of us waving and honking for us to pull…

And so it begins with a 5 hour ride from Albany NY to Portland Maine is enough of a drive. We hovered here for a day before heading northward. Of course, we had to sightsee while here. Portland Maine June 1-2 June 3-5  New Brunswick, Saint John Next stop is the Bay of Fundy, however……

3 Graduates in one year! Big event is to witness our grandkids graduate from High School. Tessa and Avery were one of over 500 in the graduating class, and it brought a tear to my eyes watching them receive their diplomas! Where or where has the time gone? Kudos to Amy and Scott for raising…

We begin April with roof repairs to Wanda. Think I mentioned we went thru a hellacious hail storm back in Sept., then an acorn bombardment which did in the roof. So, we left it at Camping World for 10 days and headed to see friends… Don Pedro Island, around the Edgewater area is where Jerry…

Well, Ty is at it again! Bumped his head on the kingpin so hard that it managed to ding him real good and thru his hat!!!! Skin glue really works well – am not taking that boy to urgent care again! I can’t be too harsh on Ty ’cause the real bad boy in this…

Wow! I know it is only 28 days but the month really flew by! It helps when Kit and Denise stay in campsite right next door! Not much went on in February other than canoeing (John and Sandy joined us), going to La Ola’s to listen to Johnny Walker play and of course drink a…

A very Happy New Year friends and family. Ya never knows what the year will bring, so I hope that we all are able to make the best of the 365 days. We certainly will try as it is the start of the 5th year of the Great Adventure! It appears we will be able…

Introducing Chet the jet! He is a jet black (with white strands on front and couple on back paws) Havanese puppy. Ty and I are holding up pretty well, taking turns to be on the midnight, 2 am and 4 am potty breaks, and taking lots of naps Chet is adjusting to RV living nicely,…
