Mexico and Big Bend April 2008

Went to Mexico in April and hit a freak heat wave with temperatures in the 100’s. Did a (can’t quite think of the right descriptive word) horrific gravel road where I crashed 6 times in the deep gravel. Then we got to the town and stopped at a town square where I promptly dropped my […]

Texas Coast February 2008

First solo trip. After the debacle in December I thought riding alone might be better — go my pace, stop to see interesting things, take a break if I don’t feel well. Scary to go it alone, but it went really well. Click picture to see slide show.

Mexico December 2007

This was a quick 5 day trip into Mexico, more to get experience going there than to see things. I, unfortunately, went with someone whose sole purpose was to do miles – no stopping to see cool things, no enjoying, just ride, ride, ride. Even more unfortunately I got really sick and was with someone […]

Thomas Elton Tape Transcription – Tape 1 Side 1

Childhood through Great Depression (approx 1896 to 1932) Preface: My grandfather and grandmother homesteaded in North Dakota in the early 1900’s. I adored my grandma and grandpa. Grandpa was born in 1888 and grandma in 1893. Unfortunately grandma died when I was 5 years old, but grandpa lived to be 97. By 1980 he was […]

Flagstaff Travel Trailer Floor Replacement

Since the floor softening issue is so common I wanted to write about my experience getting the floor replaced in my 2017 Flagstaff Micro Lite 25BHS. My apologies for the length. Realizing there was a problem For about 3 years everything sounded fine when I walked around. Then when I stepped certain places the cabinets […]

Flagstaff Travel Trailer Fresh Water Tank Support

There’s an easy solution to the poorly supported fresh water tanks put on so many travel trailers. When the factory has a note in the manual that the trailer should never be moved with water in the tank, they know how puny the support it. I had only filled my water tank one time and […]

Flagstaff Broken Couch Frame Repair

I was aware the back left seat corner of the couch in my travel trailer was broken almost from the time I got it. It was on my list when I went back to the dealer for warranty work. I should have known I was in trouble when they said they’d have to check with […]

Flagstaff TT Murphy Bed Repair

I read about various problems with the Murphy beds in Forest River travel trailers. The aluminum frame that supports the bed seems to be alright, but after 5 years of constant use the piano hinge connecting it to cabinet unit was separating on the left side. It started out small and gradually grew to over […]

Cleaning Stainless Steel Coffee Mug

A little over a year ago I purchased a Mukoko 20 oz Stainless Steel Vacuum Insulated Mug. I like a big cup of coffee in the morning and I have to admit I love this mug. I had grown tired of my coffee getting cold and this mug keeps it warm a long time even […]

The Year of COVID-19

It was a year of isolation, but also injuries. I am so thankful I had made the decision to get a dog in October 2019. In lockdown, isolation, and injury Zoey was my saving grace. Getting out to walk her was a sanity keeper, but not being able to walk her was kind of tough […]
