Monday morning, we ventured out for our final camping trip of the 2023 season! We headed about four hours north of us, to Door County in Northeast Wisconsin. If you’re not familiar, Door County makes up the peninsula that...
Mark and I continue to enjoy exploring all of the wonderful treasures of the Chicago area, and we visited two recently… On Fri. Aug 18th, we headed to the North side of the city, to Lincoln Park (which is...
Thursday was a shorter day as we drove into Ann Arbor to visit the Gerald Ford Presidential Library. In all other instances, the Presidential Library and Museum are co-located, but Ford’s is a bit different; his library is at...

I’m ‘cheating’ a little with this post since it doesn’t involve RoVer Too, but now that Mark and I live 30 miles from the country’s 3rd largest city (and the very best US city, in my opinion!), we get...
