After our day of vicariously hanging with the rich and famous, Thursday’s plan included a stop at Sierra Nevada Brewery on the way back to Westminster. Located in Mills River, North Carolina, the brewery sits on endless acres of amazing forest land about 20 minutes south of Asheville. The original brewery was founded in 1979 by Ken … More “Hop” to it … and believe me, we did!
Weeks ago, Bill and I decided that we would treat ourselves to a Christmas getaway and visit the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina. Well, this was the week and we had a tremendous time! Our adventure began on Wednesday with a stop in Fair Play, SC at an out-of-the-way bakery named Hershbergers. We had heard … More Hanging with the Rich and Famous…and Remarkable!
Needless to say, after 4+ days of steady rain and damp, raw air, when we awoke on Wednesday, December 7th and the sun was shining, we were up and ready to hit the road for exploration! Following our daily workout at the gym, we headed south toward Georgia. Now keep in mind, we are located off Exit 1 of … More Georgia On Our Minds!
Seems like forever since I wrote, but we got off to a slow start here in South Carolina due to a bout of bronchitis on my part. I honestly do not remember the last time I had even a head cold, yet alone a cold plus a hacking, persistent – and lingering – cough! Not quite 100% yet but definitely … More Thanksgiving…Family, Friends, Food, and Football!!

After traveling two more days after my last post, we arrived at our winter destination on Thursday, November 3, nestling in at Chickasaw Point. We are one of five couples living and working here on an absolutely gorgeous golf course and the Trails Grill, or as golfer’s say – the 19th hole! We spent the … More Chickasaw Point Chatter
After five weeks of family, friends, and fun, today we hit the road again for our winter adventure! Of course we leave with mixed feelings as it is always hard to leave family, but we also look forward to a new job, a different environment, and of course, warmer weather. This winter we are trying something … More On the Road (And Water) Again!
As Bill and I continue our workamping adventures, one thing we have agreed upon is a trip back to South Jersey in between commitments in order to visit family and friends. Thus far, after six years of workamping, this has worked very well. We have the opportunity to see our children, our grandchildren, and various … More There’s No Place Like Home!
Of course when you leave a workamping location, you talk about your experience with family and/or new friends as your adventure continues. In reflecting on our amazing summer in Michigan, it dawned on me that I neglected to share three very unique and delicious eating establishments, all of which truly deserve recognition. When we first discovered Indigo Bluffs … More How Could I Have Forgottten These Places?
…And are we glad we did! Our guided tour of the Motown Museum in Detroit was the absolute funniest, most interactive, entertaining, and informative tour we’ve ever experienced. Our guide, Cecilia, was extraordinary as she shared the history of one of the most remarkable phenomenoms in the world of music. The Museum is located on Berry … More Stop…in the Name of Love!
