Walking the Reservation
Hiking the Seminole Reservation between L-3 Canal and the Big Cypress Campground is mostly a roadwalk – more dirt roads than paved – but is quite scenic and interesting.
A Year with Primrose
It’s been a year since we purchased Primrose, our 1982 VW Vanagon. Here’s a recap of where we’ve been and what we’ve seen.
Last Moments of Wild
At Dos De Enero Ranch along the boundary of Torres Del Paine National Park in Chile, I witnessed the last moments of the fiery spirit of this wild stallion.
VW Love at the Pasco County Bug Jam
We left Primrose home for the 25th annual Pasco County Bug Jam, but many of her cousins were on display at Florida's biggest Volkswagen gathering in Dade City.
The Return of Primrose
Fall is in the air. Time to bring Primrose out of hibernation. After some decal application and updates, she's ready for the road in November!
I'm a Lumberjack (or so I thought)
Lumberjacks in Pigeon Forge? That's what we found on a visit to the Great Smoky Mountains, learning a bit of history and culture at the Great Smoky Mountain Lumberjack Feud Dinner Show.
Counting on Ninety Six
Established in the 1750s, Ninety Six, South Carolina grew around an important crossroads. Its important role in the American Revolution is now interpreted at this National Historic Site.
Haunted by Eureka Springs
Discover the weird in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, a Victorian village in the Ozarks with both gruesome ghosts and Wild West history.
Summer Stretch on the AT
Returning to the AT, it took only a few days to realize that mid-July is not an ideal time to backpack the southern Appalachians.
Westy in Hibernation
When summer heat settles across Florida, the thing to do with an antique VW camper is to squirrel it away in hibernation in the garage until the weather cools down.
