Boise Idaho is bearing up under record-breaking conditions this week. We have more snow on the ground than EVER. (Well, at least the "ever" that dates from 1875 when someone started measuring.) We have wind-chill warnings for -25F and more snow on the way, possibly to be followed next week by rain, of all things, … Continue reading 2017: A Year for Reading Rihla

RV Wintering
I'm still learning things about RV living---the right things to do, the right words to use... Like the difference between "winterizing" an RV (getting it ready for winter storage when you're not using it) and actually WINTERING in an RV. Cliffs Notes version: Everything changes with the weather! We've had snow for weeks, and now … Continue reading RV Wintering

I honestly believed so, at least as it applies to this country and culture... but I'm here to report that the subspecies is not defunct. I met Jon last year. And I married him this February.

Singing in the Shower
It's fairly telling that my most "recent" post here dates from almost two years ago. It's even more telling that I haven't FELT like writing for two years. (That should be a red flag for a person like me, right?) And the real irony is that there was plenty to be writing ABOUT in those two years, … Continue reading Singing in the Shower
