Why camping in later years? That is an interesting question. Exercise, especially simple walking, is easier to accomplish. At home there are always a million things to do and it is so easy to simply not take the time. It’s that simple. however when away from home it is much easier to make this a […]
Having a companion or group is a great way to start your new routine, so try friends and neighbors or look for a local group to connect with. Companions will help you stay committed and showing up. Whenever possible take the scenic route and enjoy nature. Shake it up and walk in different places, directions […]
Whether out and about traveling or at home we all know we have to move. Our bodies work on a move it or lose it basis. However, one of the least appreciated forms of exercise is simply walking. Inside on a treadmill, with a walking video, around your coffee table or walk outside which takes […]
Over the Fourth of July weekend we planned a trip to my daughter’s. Her house is arranged so we can stay there easily and have our own RV for sleeping, and our stuff and we don’t have to worry about hotel rooms or being in anyone’s way. We have not had this luxury always but […]

We are taking another weekend trip to camp in my daughter’s backyard again. My main take away from my brief […]

Our next trip was back to the dealer, an experience far from satisfying. A large dealer may be just your cup of tea, however it was not mine. The sales staff did not really know much about a used RV(which mine was), then no one from one department knew anything about the other departments. No […]
The maiden voyage of the RV was tricky. A three hour drive on a very windy day, lead to great anxiety and things Iike ”I never want to do again.” and “ I really want to stop and never do this again.”, but a three hour trip turned into a four trip. The RV was […]
Aging for me is a process, a journey, and life is a gamble. So one day I bought a RV in hopes that at 70 I would find a way to get away. Our first trip was to our daughter.So far the first drive was hard, the wind was blowing which made it harder to […]
Trying to keep body and soul together, we find ourselves moving more, skipping out on junk food, and processed food. Now we add water; without food you can live for 8-21 days and with adequate water up to two months, however without water we can live only three days. Obviously water is important. With that […]
