Toaster House. Pie Town, NM. This was just a few yards down from where we stayed. This house is like a hostel for bike riders. It’s a simple house that has a few places for them to sleep, rest, shower and eat. Fridge seems to always be stocked with simple foods. Watched a YouTube video…

This is what Chasingseventies.com is all about.
Yes, it’s raining but in Florida it would not dip this low.
Scenes from Rend Lake
We are currently back at Rend Lake, more specifically Wayne Fitzgerald State Park. We have come here for the past several years at the end of our trips and have always enjoyed its immense peace and beauty. This year we are here early and plan on staying as long as we possibly can. Our goal…
What’s in it for me
RV’ing from a kid’s perspective. Recently a co-worker had commented on all the renovation work we have been doing to Betty Deux, our Keystone Outback travel trailer. She made the comment that she’d like to go camping, but didn’t think her kids would like it. Let’s face it, with the way kids are “plugged-in” now…
We’re Off…….
well maybe tomorrow. Every summer we take off as soon as school is out. As long as we don’t leave on a Friday. That’s bad luck. So we leave on a Saturday. Well, we would have, but after celebrating the last day of school with dinner and wine we decided on….SUNDAY. Now, I think this…
Hipcamp Craziness
It saddens me that one of the first post for this summer’s trip is going to be a sad one. But, unfortunately, that is the way it is sometimes with this way of life. Can’t all be sunshine and Kumbayas. We have had many days of point A to point B travel. We’ve stayed at…
Chennault Aviation and Military Museum
Stayed overnight at a really cool Harvest Host. Chennault Aviation and Military Museum. Took tour this morning. The docents were amazing and so passionate. Kaye and Roy were so kind and really knew their subjects. And, yes, Kaye you made me tear up a little. You watch a short video that makes you understand what…
Rainy Day blues
I have decided to change my format of my blogs. Keeping it simple. One photo, a tid-bit of information and a personal connection. Nothing more, nothing less. Willie Nelson sings that “If you don’t like this rainy weather you better pack your bags and move.” The wind howls and screams past our little home, rocking…
Wanderlust
Wanderlust settles in me like a too tight favorite jacket. I’m excited about wearing it, but it pinches all the same. School wraps up this week and the countdown begins. With that comes intense anxiety. Can I get everything done in time? What will I forget? I’m adding to and amending my packing list constantly. …
Here we go again
Friday 6/2/2017 Away on another adventure exploring the unknown and revisiting some known. The traveling Willoughby’s leave the misty, overcast humidity of Florida and head for Roan Mountain, Tennessee. Days of last-minute appointments, end-of-year school prep, airport excursions, family visits and of course, packing, has left us subdued, but most definitely ready for the peace and…
