Yesterday we made the decision to remain in Los Angeles because the temperature at Joshua Tree was going to be around 107/108 degrees. Joshua Tree would have been hard to see, just from the truck. Speaking of the truck, I have a love/hate relationship with that thing. It certainly hauls us down the road but…

I started the day with laundry. What fun! But it has to be done. I chatted with a woman about the best machines and she pointed the good ones out. I told her not to use the dryer on the end, it didn’t dry. I considered washing the sheets but changing the sheets is too…

We started off the day, well Tom started off the day repairing the wiring that connects the trailer to the truck. It had detached just as we were parking the trailer on Saturday. This means there are no lights or brakes. As Tom was working on it, which he has had to do once before,…

Today was our first ballpark, Dodger Stadium. Dodgers vs Astros It sometimes pays to have a big truck because we were able to park near the entrance instead of the back 40. We arrived around noon and found our seats. Sadly they were in full sun and after about 20 minutes, I couldn’t take it…

We took off from Patterson this morning heading further south to Hollywood RV site. We’re actually in Van Nuys, not Hollywood. It’s an interesting place. We thought the worker was going to tow our RV to the site and I was prepared to video the whole thing, but alas he told Tom to do it.…

Today was a travel day. I’m not fond of travel days. They are sometimes long, can be hot, and boring. We are in Patterson, California tonight. We traveled 260 miles today. It was not a particularly long day, and we had 0 issues along the route. I spent most of my day either reading “A…

I love National Parks, all National Parks. In the US we have 63 National Parks, including more than 400 designated national sites. I’ve been to many, not all, and I’ll probably never make it to all of them. But that’s a bucket list item for me. Today we had a day without traveling, so we…

What’s the saying? “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” I’m not a big fan of lemons or lemonade for that matter. But the fun just keeps coming. Although, I’m not so sure it’s really all that fun. Tom is sitting here talking to me about our campsite for Saturday and the strange requirements. There…

My dad used to say that trouble finds me wherever I go. He may have been right. July 1, our first day of a new adventure. We’ve been experiencing interrupted sleep because of a 1000 Bike Motorcycle Rally at our previous RV Park. Thankfully they were gone by June 30 and we had a good…

July 1st we begin our adventure of visiting 26 of the 30 MLB parks. There will be other stops along the way and I’m sure interesting adventures as we go. There’s some national parks on the agenda, Washington D.C., visiting family and knowing us trouble, good trouble. Visit this site often to see what we’re…
