Our Bluebird Musical horn plays that song [I added “Sucker”] , along with 31 others including RV WHERE YET’s Theme Song: Roll Out The Barrel… .. Leaving Phoenix we had about half a tank of diesel. In that situation, I like to check GAS BUDDY to see if there are RADICAL price differences if we

Random thoughts and more
Almost Texans…
We returned to Weatherford Texas, where we discovered that Max Hendrix had NOT sold the bus, though he claimed the neighbors were interested. Not so interested, apparently, that the police were summoned. While at the Max-cave, I completed the installation of our new BARBEQUE on a sliding shelf. Our previous unit, propane-fired, had been stuffed
RANDOM THOUGHTS!
Thought for the Day (Click me!) My Dad’s 90th Birthday celebration in Minneapolis was SPECTACULAR. Celebrating a life well-lived, and far from done. There was a bit of nostalgia, some well-meaning trash-talking and general festivity at a brunch hosted magnificently by Dad’s partner, Helen. Not much debauchery, though. The video here will probably embarrass him
Texas-sized Hospitality
So, we arrived at Weatherford and Chez Hendrix having passed through another line of impressive storms. In years past, we always watched on TV Weather the Bright Yellow and RED storms that seem to sweep across Texas, Oklahoma and such places every spring. It is a whole ‘nother thing to drive thru them! “Passed Thru”
Another first! (At least, that’s the story I told Liz!)
Our travels, seemingly random, are not always so. For the last couple weeks we have been pointing RV WHERE YET towards friends in the center. “Center” means pretty much the geographic center of the USA — Northeastern Oklahoma and Northwestern Arkansas. Center does NOT mean necessarily politically…friends can be all over the spectrum, but FRIENDS
Weather (or not)
Our “plans” are definitely subject to the winds and whims of the weather. We had the idea to travel northwards a bit to see old friends Rhonda and Randy Dietz in far-Northwestern Arkansas, then Lynn and Dave Gray in far North-eastern Oklahoma. We had some days to spare and diesel in the tank, so why
On a Roll (while Rollin’ on the River…)
First, I guess I am on a roll…please indulge me for ONE MORE Personal post.. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to my bride, partner-in-crime, conscience, dance-lead, muse, Secretary of the Treasury, main-squeeze (and alternate squeeze). I am speaking more about our lives together (28 years, now on February 23rd), but also this traveling-thing we are doing at present.
Ray Harris is 90! — 25 March 2019
So, one of the things that we appreciate when we are on the road is time. Time to consider the monumental events occurring in the world around us. NO, this is not another political post (I promised NO MORE of those). This is about My Dad’s Birthday; and I posted it here so others can appreciate and
There are GREAT people in the world…
Our travels by RV have revealed something we hoped for and suspected MIGHT exist, but which continues to surprise and delight. That is that the country (actually, the world!) is populated by mostly really great people. This despite varying political, religious and social beliefs. I thought I would balance my recent political post, not to
2019 “Planning” (Which we try NEVER to do!)
We have some VERY FUN (and aggressive!) travel goals for 2019… As we did last year, we have developed a post to let everyone know where we are pointed and approximately when. This is so we can have the opportunity for meetings with friends. We figure you may not LIVE in New Mexico or Oregon
