Continuous Travelers Hit The Road
With the exception of our two camp hosts, we’ve outlasted every other camper who has pulled in for a night…or two…or three at Emigrant Lake. While our 2-week stay has far exceeded our expectations, we are now in danger of overstaying our welcome. With our brand new driver licenses tucked safely in our wallets, the…

Leprechauns And 4-Leaf Clovers
After a quick, overnight stop in Seattle, Washington, we met up with son, Andrew and daughter-in-law, Charlotte to help them move and get settled…across the pond…in Dublin, Ireland. Many of you are aware of their plans, but for those of you who haven’t yet heard, here’s a quick catch-up. After much planning and paperwork, many…
