Jo and I are back in Oklahoma City for a few weeks or so. We got word from our youngest son, Eric, that he had surgery early Friday morning for an abscess. Since that abscess is in a "delicate" location, thus difficult for him to treat himself, we drove down to be the caregivers after he gets r...

OK, so what's the trick to managing all of the pictures you take? We are using three or four cameras--two camera phones, a one shot (for situations that I don't want to bring my good camera, but want better pics than my camera phone) and a the DSLR camera. I want to get this set up right so I don't have to go...

I was told that people and pets can stay in the 5er while you're driving down the road as long as their is a 2 way camera and communication??? Has anyone heard of this and agree with this??

It is time to replace the front curtains in our 1987 Rockwood (yes the original ones). We want to make our own as my other half does sew and we have a Singer 758 slant needle of 1970 vintage to work with. I want the new curtains to be Velcro all around the sides and bottom of the windshield. And we have a few &qu...

We were at minus 6 on our thermometer this AM in Grand Rapids, Michigan. While we were prepared for it, many folks in the southeast US weren't expecting this cold. How are you holding up down there? Jim

Hopefully we will start our FT journey this October. I cant decide where to hang out this winter. I think we will claim Texas as our domicile, but I'm not sure we want to spend the winter there, maybe too cold. After living in the Midwest all my life, I'm looking forward to some warmth now

Anyone want...

I've been trying to contact him for a few weeks and he has not been answering his emails or private messages -- very much unlike him. I don't see any recent posts from him either. Has anyone here heard from him? I'm very worried.

Unbelievable, right?! At 131pm on a sunny day from the parking lot at the HEB grocery in Boerne Texas.

So, we're here at one of the HUGE RV parks in the Phoenix area for a month. It was actually a well thought out plan, or so we reasoned before we got here.

We seem to be at a stalemate. We just can't make up our minds on an estate sale or garage sales. We have an 1800 sq/ft home with just your usual assortment of "things" accumulated over the years. I'm sure DH has a LOT more tools than the average guy, but other than that, nothing special, i.e....

Predictions of over two feet of snow beginning tonight and finishing up Wednesday morning have me severely down in the dumps.
