I’m just happy to be here

Full time digital nomad, RVer, lover of photography, hiking, and our amazing national parks. Proud to be a Kentucky girl. Always down to plan a road trip. Still an optimist. We are stronger when we work together. 👊 #nky #cincy

Took a walk through the holiday decorations in the city park and enjoyed the town’s annual Christmas Tree decorating contest. Someone was selling cocoa and cookies. Who says Hallmark movies aren’t real?

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in our camper.

I’m sitting in my camper listening to the wind howl after a night of snow and sleet, so I’m thinking back a couple weeks to beautiful mornings camping on Lake Sangcris in Indiana

Excited Explorer

Loki is a 12-year old husky, but a good long hike turns him into an excited little puppy again.

Acrobatics? Impressive!

I think a couple turtles at the state park nature center are preparing for America’s Got Talent

A late autumn walk in Hueston Woods.

Oxford, Ohio

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promised to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
-Robert Frost

Walking through the woods and the bare branches of the tree looks like arms trying to reach out and grab me.

When my husband was in Thailand a few years back he said he missed the family and asked me to send a picture…of our kittens.

I guess I know my place in the family hierarchy. 🤭

On our inaugural trip as full time RVers, the biggest city we’ve visited is Springfield, Illinois. We celebrated an early birthday for my husband while visiting our daughters

Not a particularly artistic photo, but the sign is cool. Food was good, too.

Last day of our stay in Brown County, Indiana.

Were you lost upon the way?
Did you follow all the day
Roads that led you far astray,
Anywhere?

-In Brown County, Maude Elizabeth

Have you seen the hills of Brown, Tall and fair? Have you wandered up and down, Over there? Were you lost upon the way? Did you follow all the day, Roads that led you far astray, Anywhere? Did you turn to left, then right, Then left again? Till you dreamed throughout the night, In weary pain, That you “follered” still the “crick” Till its windings made you sick, And the sumac bushes thick, turned your brain?

The lights from the town of Nashville, Indiana, are bright, but not bright enough to block out the stars.

Long exposure creates an eerie image of a tree with no leaves against a starry sky.
