Today I had a check I needed to cash. Mark and I both belong to credit unions, and apparently there are no credit unions in Saratoga, but when I checked online I found one in Los Gatos. I couldn’t find either of our GPS’s, so I came up with what seemed like a pretty good idea. We needed a few groceries down below and there is one Continue reading

Birthday party on the mountain
Jamey and Sarah came to spend the night last night. Apparently there is another location on Skyline Blvd with our address and they ended up there first, but they found Alice’s Restaurant which has wifi and were able to look us up by the name of the club. Continue reading
Shout out!
I want to give a shout out to my younger sister, Lauryn, and my 14-year-old nephew, Nate, who just returned home today from a mission trip to Kenya. I hope to get one of them to write a guest blog about their trip. Continue reading
Laundry room remodel
This was supposed to be the first day of our weekend, but Mark and Adam started out the day by pulling the washing machine and dryer and the old carpet out of our laundry room. That carpet has been the bane of my efforts to clean because any time I vacuumed near the edges, long strands of carpeting would get stuck in the roller under the vacuum cleaner and make it stop.

Adam trained me how to set up and pull the trap for them that throws out a clay “pigeon” (which looks more like a clay Frisbee) for he and Mark to shoot Continue reading
Getting around
Heat wave
I guess there are some areas inland that are in the triple digits. I don’t think it’s been that hot up here, but it’s been hotter than usual. (At least from what I’ve heard from others who have been around here longer.) Yesterday Mark was Continue reading
Maybe I should change religions…
For anyone who is just tuning in, I’ll briefly recap what has been happening in the last week or so. My husband, Mark, used to drive long-haul, but that wasn’t working for us, so we signed up with an organization called Club Workamper. They put out job listings for jobs you can do from an RV anywhere in the Continue reading
Things are afoot – #5
We have another winner! Donna Stout (Mom) figured out that the three words were “Range Safety Officer”. So here is my surprise announcement: Continue reading
