Our second challenge in 48 hours was more sudden, more immediate, and more dangerous! The Monday after we got back from Ohio, we were working in the Visitors Center. Tom and I were both upstairs doing living history when we were notified that the Chief of Interpretation wanted one of us on the phone. Tom …

First Challenge in a Challenging 48 Hours
First Challenge. The week after we got back to Kentucky after going to Ohio, we had a challenging 48 hours. You know the old saying that bad things come in threes. It was kind of like that. The first challenge concerned my computer. The trouble had started the week before when my computer decided to …
Roundabout Construction
When Tom and I got home from Fort Frederica in April, construction was just beginning on a roundabout at the intersection of Lewis Center Road and Worthington Road. We live on a street just off Lewis Center Road, the next street up from Worthington, so we were expecting construction to begin. In fact, we had …
No Kings Protests
Today, the day before the 4th of July, seems like a very good day to talk about the June 14 No Kings Protests. Although I am a supporter of the No Kings and 50501 movements, I was not able to be a part of the protests. But I was praying for those who were and …
Best Toilet Paper for RV and Septic
I am not actually going to tell you the best toilet paper for an RV or a septic system. But I recently conducted a rigorous, scientific experiment to test between two kinds of toilet paper. Why does this matter? If you have a regular sewer system, it doesn’t really. In an RV, however, you want …
Dinette Renovation in the RV
While we have been home, Tom and I did a dinette renovation on the RV. You might remember that we looked at a motorhome in February that was too expensive for us to consider buying. We decided at that point that we would make a few changes to our current, paid-off RV instead of buying …
One Thing Leads to Another
One thing leads to another. This is a cliched phrase that is also very true in life, as Tom and I are frequently reminded. You make a decision, and before you know it, you are down a rabbit hole. You choose one thing, which leads to another necessary choice, which leads to a third choice, …
Six Weeks in Ohio
Tom and I are back in Ohio for six weeks. Six weeks is not very long for all the things we feel like we need to do before we head out for our next park. During that six weeks, I have five doctor’s appointments. I like getting them all over with in a small window …
Hanging Out on St. Simons Island
This was our 8th season at Fort Frederica. Our 8th season of hanging out on St. Simons Island. Our 8th year of doing things in the area on our days off. What did we see that was new and different? Hardly anything at all. Because of the three weeks we were back in Ohio, we …
Beaufort, South Carolina

The city is the second-oldest in South Carolina, behind Charleston. Although the city was chartered in 1711, it was home to indigenous people for centuries before …
