Once we got home from our adventure to Frankfort, Kentucky, I could’t wait to put my new spinning wheel together. Mom and Dad dropped us off and Tom and Dad carried the wheel over to our RV site. Then Mom and Dad headed home and Tom and I went to work on my beautiful Kromski …

National Underground Railroad Freedom Center
On our short trip to Frankfort Kentucky, Mom, Dad, Tom and I stopped by William Howard Taft National Historic Site, spent time at The Woolery, and checked out Frankfort and Frankfort Cemetery. The next day we decided to make one more stop before ending our wonderful little adventure. After discussing several options, we decided to …
Frankfort Cemetery: Burial Place of the Boones?
While we were in Frankfort, I checked Trip Advisor to see what we should visit. To my surprise, The Woolery was not among the top 100. But we decided to see some of the other things listed. We drove around downtown, saw the old State Capitol and then the current State Capitol. Pretty impressive. To …
Woolery in Frankfort, Kentucky

We stopped at William Howard Taft National Historic Site in Cincinnati (read about it here). Then we moved on to Frankfort for the raison d’etre of the trip: …
Mother Taught Me (Mother’s Day Tribute)

Buckeye Agricultural Museum, Wooster Ohio
In between Fort Frederica and heading to Pipe Spring National Monument in Arizona, Tom and I spent three weeks in Ohio. Three weeks is never long enough to see everyone, so the days tend to be packed full. We also fit in doctor and dentist appointments and do some shopping in familiar stores. Despite our …
Randys Bar B Que in Troutman, North Carolina
When Tom and I stayed at the Statesville KOA overnight, our friend Adam came over from Winston-Salem to visit us. Having heard great things about Randys Bar B Que in Troutman, we decided to head there for supper with Adam. We loved catching up with Adam. Tom and I met him first in Death Valley, then …
Statesville KOA and I-77 Campground
The last three times we’ve been traveling back and forth to St. Simons, we stayed at Statesville KOA. I don’t like to review a campground until we have stayed at least a couple of nights, so now I can write about this one. KOA divides its campgrounds into three kinds: Journey, Holiday, and Resort. Located …
Childrens Sunday at Lewis Center UMC
Last Sunday Tom and I returned to Lewis Center United Methodist Church. On our first visit, I signed the attendance card and wrote down my email. Within a few days we got the church’s email newsletter so we knew the children would be leading worship at the 10:30 service. Of course, for the two of …
