Both of the best vacations I’ve ever taken were all inclusive. It’s so awesome not to have to worry about last minute charges and how to pay for things. I learned about a new all inclusive family vacation that sounds like a lot of fun. Epic Summer Vacations aren’t just vacations, they’re adventures. I love …

Next week we go on our annual family vacation. Every year we go camping in upstate New York and attend the Nascar race. If you’re a regular reader you know that we got a larger travel trailer recently. This will be our inaugural voyage with it. Dad and I made a quick list of things I …
This weeks game is TAILS – “Summertime memory”. One of my favorite summertime memories is from a camping trip taken several years ago. It was during early August, on a family camping trip to Watkins Glen NY. We camp there every year. We were all sitting outside – myself, RB, CJ, my Dad, my Mom …

This week’s Heads or Tails prompt is heads – Down On The Farm, meaning our post should be about things or animals that could be found on a farm. These pictures were taken on a farm in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in April 2006. Most of the members of my family took a weekend trip together. It’s …
I have to share this. I am so proud of my Mom. She started writing more and really put her heart into it on her blog Here And There a couple of months ago. I wasn’t sure if she’d enjoy it or how well she’d do but I think she’s doing a great job. She …
My parents were on their way home last night, they’ve been in Florida at Walt Disney World all week. It was 29 degrees here today so I know they’ll be missing the warm weather. There are a lot of senior citizens that live in my area that have homes both here and in Florida. We …
Hubby had to take CJ to the hearing aid dispenser yesterday because his hearing aid kept falling off. RB had asked me for directions, so I printed him a set of directions that I checked myself for accuracy, adding landmarks. FYI, hubby has a portable GPS system but he doesn’t put it in the truck …
I didn’t make this trip but it looks like I’ll have at least one more shot at seeing Hawaii. My Mom told me today that Disney has acquired property in Hawaii for the purpose of adding Disney Vacation Club units, and that it’s scheduled to open in 2011. She’s planning on being there when it …
Because he is on the tiny side and because he doesn’t always understand what’s right and what’s wrong, CJ is still in a car seat at the age of nine. It isn’t as odd as it sounds to some, he only weights 50 pounds. Because he is a boy he isn’t always the neatest child. …
I took my parents to Newark airport yesterday, where they were meeting with one of my brothers and his friend and all flying to California. There was no traffic at all in the airport and I didn’t feel rushed or endangered while I was at the curb for unloading and saying goodbye. Apparently the perfect …
My parents are leaving tomorrow morning on another trip. No, this one isn’t one of their Orlando vacations. This is a trip to a convention in Phoenix. The majority of the time my parents travel somewhere I end up being the person going to the airport to pick them up or drop them off. I …
TJ just came in from getting me the mail and asked me what happened to the mailbox. I didn’t get a chance to share this story yet. Last night a little before 11 pm my Dad came down to pick up a set of keys of his that I had and to get the trailer …
As previously mentioned, even before this last trip, I’ve been thinking about getting a larger travel trailer. I was surprised to learn in speaking with my Dad this past weekend that I wouldn’t have to put insurance on a travel trailer if I bought one, it would be covered under my car insurance. I was …
Well we made it home a short while ago. Yes, for anyone wondering, we did bring the giant hunk of junk trailer home with us. I noticed when we started unpacking it that the microwave had come loose and had gone cockeyed in its frame. A few more winding roads and it probably would’ve flown …
Well, I made it this year! We had the same seats but I hadn’t seen them because I didn’t get up here last year due to the surgery. The start-finish line was moved and we’re now really close to it. We were seated right across from Kurt’s (#2) pit and Jamie’s (#26) was further down …
We’d found out earlier yesterday that the refrigerator wasn’t working, but we were making do. I didn’t buy anything that had to be kept cold except a pound of sliced colby jack cheese that I love and can’t get at home. I kept that in the refrigerator of my parents’ motor home. I went to …
We arrived in Watkins Glen, NY in the wee hours this morning. We got a rough start yesterday. We had been driving down the road and I saw something fluttering in my right mirror. The outer skin of the trailer door had lifted. I called my Dad on the cell and before I could even …
Today is my birthday and the first day of my vacation. Me and the boys leave for our camping vacation in upstate New York tomorrow. Hubby informed me several days ago that he wanted to say home to get some stuff done. He claims that he’s going to finish painting the living room and possibly …
Today has been a rotten day. Around 9:30-10 this morning while I was at work I developed this little twitch by my thumb on the palm side. It lasted all day. Partway through my tow truck ride home tingling began on the upper side of the same hand. It’s really annoying and it also has …
A coworker recently bought a second home in Florida. With the price of gas being what it is now I told her it was cheaper to fly round trip and rent car while there rather than drive down. I found her some cheap flights and then tackled the task of finding her an affordable car …
As I mentioned recently, we have a tiny travel trailer and have been considering getting something larger. My parents recommended we be triple sure that we could see ourselves in whatever we buy ten years down the road. I was in the mood to window shop a little bit today so I hit the internet. …
We have a small travel trailer. We go camping in upstate New York every year. The reason we don’t camp more is because the trailer is so small we have no room to move and cannot enjoy ourselves. Lately we’ve been doing some heavy consideration of getting a bigger trailer, so we can enjoy some …
