  • Comlara Biking Sunset

    Comlara Park, IL, August 2026 Another night of John gaming, and I’m out and about. This time, I road the bike around the park and took pictures of different sunset views. Unfortunately, I had sun glared off my phone lens. So, I have an extra sun ring in the pictures. The pictures below were taken…

  • Like a Rainbow

    Comlara Park, IL, August 2026 While John was gaming, I walked to the lake and saw another colorful sunset. I couldn’t resist taking more pictures. I shared the pictures with the park staff who posted them (minus the selfie) on the parks Facebook page. In less than 24 hours, the pictures had 1,490 views (typical…

  • Comlara Park Sunset

    Hudson, IL, July 2027 What do you do on miserably hot and humid day? You go out and take sunset pictures. My original plan was to walk to the bathhouse and was deterred by just how beautiful the sun was. John believes the color was the result of haze and moisture in the air. I…

  • Lorain Lighthouse Tour

    Lorain Lighthouse, OH, July 2026 There were over 800 photos taken for this trip, but most of them were for the fireworks. We have pared it down to a little over 200 photos, and it will probably be pared down more. We will split this into the fireworks and everything else. This is the everything…

  • Evening Ferry Ride

    Surry County, VA, May 2026 The James River runs south and separates the eastern cities of Virginia cities, such as Jamestown, Williamsburg, etc. from the main land. This means that you either have to cross a bridge, use a tunnel, or take a ferry. I’ve been told by multiple family members that all can be…

  • Sunset Pictures Reed Bingham State Park

    Reed Bingham State Park, GA, April 2026 After a grueling setup start (see blog about office slide not coming out), I was able to walk to the lake and see the sunset. Picture below is the sunset picture from the trailer. The view is not as great from the trailer. But if you are inside…

  • Poverty Point Reservoir State Park, LA: Information

    Poverty Point Reservoir State Park, LA, February 2026 For some reason, the drive from Tyler State Park to Poverty Point took longer than normal. I could have been that we left later due to the extra time needed to safely move the trailer out of the Tayler SP site which was a pull through with…

  • Amazing Sunset

    Hillsdale State Park, KS, November 2025 Our current campsite has great sunset views from the living room windows. I have gone out multiple times just to enjoy and try to get a decent picture. I’ve finally succeeded at getting a good to great sunset picture. Cleo did not like being left inside. So, I put…

  • Relaxation!

    Hillsdale State Park, KS, November 2025 Sunday was a great day to hang out at the trailer and enjoy almost warm weather. We started the day with biscuits, bacon and egg sandwiches while watching “The Great British Sewing Bee” on Roku. When it was warm enough to enjoy the “Great Outdoors” (with no grizzly stories…

  • Clinton SP North Shore Trails

    Lawrence, KS, October 2025 In 2024, John hiked part of the white and blue trails, and, for some reason, I did not. I’m not exactly sure why. Potentially, my Achilles was hurting, or I went shopping 🙂 This year we did a little of each trail all on the same hike. John said that the…
