06.05.13 The amazing pontoon boat adventure – starring Roy and Rosalyn!

Hi folks, I'm having great difficulty getting the blog to "look" right. It will not create separate paragraphs any longer nor will it allow me to put captions under any of the pictures after the first two. I'm going to post this anyway now and when I find out the solution to this new problem… Continue reading 06.05.13 The amazing pontoon boat adventure – starring Roy and Rosalyn!

06.04.13 Sunday afternoon drive to the Lake Kabetogama Visitor’s Center

Sunday afternoon was beautiful and Roy and I set out to see some of the area nearby.  We went to the Lake Kabetogama Visitor's Center.  It was closed so we couldn't go inside and get information but we had a wonderful time touring the area and seeing a different part of this neck of the woods than… Continue reading 06.04.13 Sunday afternoon drive to the Lake Kabetogama Visitor’s Center

06.03.13 Red, Red Robin….

Recently a robin started forming a nest outside the rear of our RV  by the radiator.  It was amazing to see how perfectly formed this nest is.  I guess I don't think of birds as being capable of such perfect construction.  When she was finished the next day there was one tiny blue egg, and then… Continue reading 06.03.13 Red, Red Robin….

06.02.13 Parade of boats!

We watched the movie Fargo last night which seems to be a spoof of the way people in Minnesota talk.  I wouldn't recommend anyone watching it since there's very graphic sex, lots of murders and filthy language.   If you've seen it I want you to know it's an exaggeration of how they talk but basically that… Continue reading 06.02.13 Parade of boats!

05.30.13 A true fish story with pictures!

We've heard much about the Northern Pike being really slimy and hard to clean. Then some people started telling us how delicious they could be once you've done the cleaning.  This evening, after baking the cake that didn't come out so great looking but really did taste fine, I decided to go back to the lake… Continue reading 05.30.13 A true fish story with pictures!

05.30.13 Cutting some things from the budget; and our work

We've finally eliminated all expenses house related from our budget.  All except the homeowners insurance but that's kind of covered by their rent, so I guess that's not on our dime any longer also!!!  The new tenants have the electricity and water in their names now and we've taken it out of ours.  Definitely one… Continue reading 05.30.13 Cutting some things from the budget; and our work

05.28.13 Dinners with the peeps!

  Sunday night our neighbors Annie and Russ invited us over for a wonderful dinner of giant fried burritos.  I've never eaten a burrito but I believe these are very different than the normal variety you get in a restaurant.  After we loaded the wrap with whatever we wanted we folded them over on two sides and then… Continue reading 05.28.13 Dinners with the peeps!

05.27.13 One month on the road and our days off!

One month ago tomorrow, May 29th we pulled out of our driveway and headed out towards this new lifestyle of RV living full time.  We visited several states on our way up north and have been settling down in Minnesota for the last almost 3 weeks.  The bare trees up here have many leaves and flowers… Continue reading 05.27.13 One month on the road and our days off!
