Monday: 02/15/16 Monday was so stormy. Phone alerts were going off, thunder and lightening, tornado watches and nervous dogs topped the chaos. Yes, you may add me to the nervous bunch of animals. It did not let up for quite some time. Tripp and I bonded over today’s storm, since we were reliant on each …

We had a yummy breakfast at Cafe Pontallsa which is located just caddy corner to the front of the Catholic Cathedral, to your left if standing facing the cathedral. Brian and many …

My mom and dad were visiting me, when I lived in Millington TN. (a military gig). That was 3 years before the mansion was …

Wednesday Feb 3rd – Location Montague-MI Did not sleep too well last night. Went to bed fairly late because I was waiting for the nightly phone call or text from my daughter on her progress to Washington State. She had a very dangerous and close call with a semi-tractor trailer and that made for a …

Last night we decided to pull the sleeper couch out and Han being a gentleman, decided he would sleep on it. Due to interior heat, we have both been snoring like hybernating bears. A little distance between us is necessary at this time if we want to have a good nights sleep. LOL We explored …

We checked into the Weathervane Inn yesterday, to have a couple of nights sleep on an actual bed instead of air mattresses, to ready us for another drive across this vast country. It was a beautiful comfortable room with a fireplace and jacuzzi. This morning we woke up to a fairly decent continental breakfast and …
