Little Gloria…

In 2021, I sold a 38-foot school bus and (with the proceeds) bought a home-built square-drop camper. It wasn’t too cozy at first, but I had a vision…. and completely transformed the interior. I also added bigger tires and a few decals on the exterior, but the trailer never really made it out of IowaContinue reading “Little Gloria…”

The Black Hills, South Dakota

I’ve visited the Black Hills many times, but my trip to the area in 2021 was the first alone and I can’t wait to go back. Not only did I drive every single road I could find in the Black Hills National Forest, I saved coordinates of places to park and relax for a fewContinue reading “The Black Hills, South Dakota”

Treehouse Living in Asheville…

When my friend Sarah moved to the mountains of North Carolina last year, I couldn’t wait to visit her. An accomplished stained glass artist, she had moved into a large rustic artist studio just outside of Asheville with her boyfriend Kelly, a blacksmith and artist working in metal and various other mediums. The studio, itself,Continue reading “Treehouse Living in Asheville…”
