Our History

My photo
Ohio, United States
Having recently retired we are fulfilling our long time dream. We began our camping life with a tent in 1969 adjusting as each of our three sons arrived over the years and gradually progressed to a 32' Class A in 2007. Even after our sons became too busy with their own interests, we continued dreaming over the years. The Louisville, KY 2003 Great North American RV Rally and the book "Movin' On" convinced us that a motorhome after retirement was really for us! In 2007 we sold our home and disposed of most of our belongings and awaited the wife's retirement on February 1, 2008. We were out in our first motorhome ten times in our first summer in 2007, with our grandson joining us eight of those ten times. Since he must stay behind with his mom and dad to continue school, we told him he can join us on vacations (by car or plane) anywhere we are as we travel the US. Imagine the history lessons he could acquire! However, Mom and Dad don't look at it that way, especially the flying. Fortunately we don't miss work one bit!! We just miss the friends there. We have many hobbies to keep us busy when we decide to sit still for a day. Hope to see you on the road.

OUR PARK YANKEE SWAP followed by the HIGHLANDS ART SHOW (Part 1) in Sebring FL

Such a nice package!
What do you suppose 
is in it??
Thursday evening, March 11th, Yankee Swap at our SKP Resort Clubhouse.  We did this last year and it was fun so decided it was worth it again!! Gift, share or steal, our activity for the night.  The Angel Soft TP was the most sought after, believe it or not!!
Surprise!!



Gary was fortunate to
get a cooking apron made
by a friend in the resort!!
   
Mine turned out to be
cans of cookies and two
wine goblets, which were later
stolen from me!!  Boo-hoo!!

Captain Kenny with a lamp he got.
I think it was made by one of the crafty
people in the park.













Made by another craftty 
person?

June wanted me to see she 
got my fancy wrap.

Another basket full of
goodies!!
   
Free car wash by Captain
Kenny.  This got stolen
a few times!!

And our 98 year old, one of several original
members, Jeanna got a delicious tray of 
green decorated cookies.  All set for
St. Patrick's Day!! 


Capt. Kenny's wife, got the
other gift that I wrapped
for Gary.  It was one of his 
drawings!  But it was stolen!

So much for an evening of fun.  Not as many attending as did last year.  Maybe next year will
be better, if the Covid pandemic fades out!!

Thursday evening, March 19th, we took our friends, Skip and Jan with us to the Highland Art Show in Sebring.  We enjoyed that for an hour and then went on for dinner at Dimitrie's Greek Restaurant.
Always too much food there, so brought enough back home for the next day
