After a few months with Lola in the shop, she’s back! They repainted her frame and it looks pretty good. She’s been home for a little over a month with the slide open and some really awful rains. So far, no leaks! Now I need to replace the leveling jacks and about 15 other things,…
HH – Broken Spoke Winery
We went to see an old friend’s band and decided to stay for the night. Broken Spoke’s venue is a very large open barn. There is the space up front for drinking, relaxing and listening to music, and bit at the back where they house some of their animals. They had two gigantic pot bellied…

A Wedding, a Concert and TRAINS!!
This past weekend we stayed at a campground in Gap, Pennsylvania called The Loose Caboose Campground.
