March 29, 2020March 29, 2020 Shelly 5 Comments

Disadvantages of RV Life As I’ve said before, we got out of D.C. just in time and found this campground that we hope we can stay in for at least a month. We’re good.

Ways the Airstream Fits Me

March 28, 2020March 28, 2020 Shelly 3 Comments

Of course the Airstream fits me and I love it here—because the people I love are here with me. My specific point, though (I started with the above so I could use that awesome photo at the top), has to do with the fact that I’m very short—4′ 11″. And you know I do complain […]
