In the wee hours of Friday morning as we were both drifting in the land of Winken, Blinken, and Nod, there was a tremendous roaring sound, some thumping and bumping, and then a magnificent CRASH! What in the high, holy hell? I went to the door to take a peep outside and identified the problem [...]
After finishing school work, I gathered up the trash, put away the dishes, swept the floor, cleaned the litter box, and then headed outside to deal with our water flow issue. We were back down to a trickle again. I just lived with it for a week or so because I knew what the problem [...]
when this is the view from the living room: Ahh, to be floating down that lazy stream instead of writing syllabi.
Well, frankly, I like it a lot, but not for all the reasons I thought I would. This is not to say there aren’t problems, either. Things that are working: -I like our site a lot. It’s overpriced, there are hoardes of mosquitoes, high tension power lines that sing during thunderstorms, and a pesky neighbor child, but we [...]
I’m counting last week as week one because it was the first week that I lived AND worked in the RV. That commuting back to the apartment foolishness is now over and my little “office” is setup. I’ve got to admit that it’s taken some getting used to. When I first stated working from home [...]

I was in the middle of rousing myself and getting dressed when there was a knock on the door. Who’s there, you ask? At 9am on a Sunday Morning? Comcast. Why? They want to BURY the coax that we have going from our little utility pole to the trailer. We’re talking 2 – 3 feet [...]
Due to the heat last night, MJ slept on the couch while I nabbed the bed. Boondocking with no electric means that all that works is the lights and the water pump – the fridge can run off propane for these instances. Couldn’t even plug in a fan, but we had bought a couple of [...]
We got up at oh-4-why-is-it-still-so-dark-outside to make the 7-10am window when Comcast was supposed to be show up. I can’t say I remember much of that drive, but on the road to our homesite we stopped by the Giant so that MJ could drop off the Watchmen at the Red Box (:P). Once we were [...]
Originally the plan had been to leave the park today, do the meetup with Comcast Thursday morning and when they were done, we’d head to NJ to spend the night (somewhere) so that we could get a few things fixed at the Camping World there on Friday morning. To save on gas and hassle, we called [...]
Ahh… To wake without an alarm blaring. That’s just lovely. MJ made breakfast of cornbread and bacon and we set out to explore Main Street. It was nice to drive that windy/hilly road without the trailer attached. Getting through that yesterday scared the bejeezus out of me and I can’t say I’m looking forward to [...]
