Today we took a short walk (very short - 1/4 mile each way) to Jump Creek Waterfall. It tanked me! I slept for hours after and am going back to bed after I finish uploading pics here. I couldn’t have done this 6 months ago. I may not be able to do it tomorrow. So…
Colorado Springs
We stopped for a few days to visit family in Colorado Springs - and maybe played a little with the drone). The start of a memory garden for Jim and Dayle Greer (my in-laws). We spread their ashes while we were there. Air Force Academy Football I wouldn’t be able to sit in bleachers all…
8/31 – The Great High Prairie
Arkansas River We’ve crossed over the Arkansas 15-20 times - think about my mother in law each and every time. Santa Fe Trail Can you imagine crossing this land in a buckboard? Sand Creek Massacre There were road signs for the “Sand Creek Massacre National Historic Site” - which is off the 70 so we…

Docere Life Center – Wichita
In 2019, I spent several weeks in Wichita at a health center that I could never describe well enough to do it justice. The center moved to TN, but my doctor, Dr Kison Frank, stayed in Wichita & opened his own practice - DOCERE LIFE CENTER. We drove through Wichita simply to see Dr. Frank…
8/28 – Kansas!
Still in the heartland. And loving every minute! I spent a total of 9 weeks in Wichita (spread out) and fell in love with Kansas. Driving through Indiana & Missouri - I felt the same “homey” feeling. People are so kind and they take pride in their community. Tall Grass Prairie National Preserve
8/27 – IN to IL to MO
Amish parking at Dollar General Illinois surprised us - we actually didn’t realize we would pass through a section of it. Still loving the wide open spaces and all the rivers and lakes. St. Louis A few years ago, on another RV trek, we got off the freeway in St Louis to do a little…
Friends
My dad was in the army when I was young - so we moved around a bit, but ended up in Hawaii for 4 years. My dad was a musician so there were often jam fests most of my young life. I grew up on 70s rock. But my folks found Cecilio & Kapono in…
8/25 – Kentucky to Indiana – Family and Rest
Louisville I wish I’d felt better driving through Louisville- I wanted to drive spend a little time in this beautiful city. But I wasn’t up to it so we just drove through. The Ohio River runs through town so there’s a whole lotta bridges - not my favorite thing to cross in an RV, but…
8/24 NC – Tennessee – Kentucky
PREPARE FOR PHOTO OVERLOAD!!!! North Carolina to Tennessee We thought we’d bypass this area but we just couldn’t resist stopping in Dolly’s old stomping grounds. We had no clue how much it’s become THE place to visit for all things touristy! Yeah - we will be back to actually spend a few days seeing it…
