My "crafty" nature can be over the board but it is also in making crafts.  I sew, quilt, crochet, knit and machine embroidery and Digitize photos then stitch them.  

 My husband and I retired years ago and for 11 plus years we were living in our 36 foot 5th wheel RV traveling around the country.   Three quarters of the year we were exploring the vast USA.   With our home towed behind us, it is easy to live anywhere where we can park for the night. We like Florida in the winter months but still want to see more of this grand country.  In Spring 2009 we began our journey traveling to Houston, TX then north to South Dakota then back East to Michigan.   Each year we visit some of the same places but also new adventures traveling an average of 7000 miles each March-October. We don't know where we will stop or how long we will stay in any one place. Travel is dependent on many factors including weather, health and breakdowns etc.; there are always obstacles to overcome or endure, so our adventures continue.    Life has its challenges; what is important is how we respond to those challenges and they keep life interesting.  We make the best of each situation and keep smiling. 

We continue our travels in the summer months and go where the fishing is good!   Happy trails to you...

Update, In November 2018 and June 2019 I had spine surgery, my neck and lower back.  and have been recovering since which has our postponed our travels.  Covid19 has further postponed our travels until mid August 2020  in the meantime we are in  Central Florida!  Winters here are sunny and warm, summers are hot, muggy and rainy.  We have been fortunate not to have had a hurricane come through during the time we couldn't travel!   We look forward to our trek north!  Happy trails to you...

We travel to  Michigan yearly so Husband can fish.    In November 2019 w purchased a manufactured home in a 55+ retirement community in Florida so I can finally have a sewing/craft room!     RV repairs/part replacements to be completed and we headed north on our travels...The adventures continue!   Fishing is great, hubby is catching rock bass, small mouth bass, perch, and blue gills!   The adventures continue...  Happy trails to you..
