Places and Playtypie YouTube Flickr Instagram Pinterest Twitter facebook So, here we are enjoying the full-time RV lifestyle in a 29' Winnebago Outlook motor home. How did we come to live in a camper? Two sensible people who loved their life in New York City. Now we travel from campground to RV park to boondocking at stadium tailgating parties or in the desert with joyful abandon. We call our [mobile] home "Maybe". We are slowly visiting places around the United States. On our continental USA-RV travels, complete with our dogs, we follow the coast of this country, visit unique places, eat good food, and stay as green as possible without sacrificing comfort, with our full solar power arrays, endless hot water and Internet and tell you all about it in this travel blog.

Picture of the almost everyday

It took me this long to realize I cannot actually write a travel blog if I am not traveling. Life has gotten in the way of our travels for the past six months and will probably continue to do so for a few more months. So, since our website is all about traveling around the country, I have decided to take a sabbatical from writing for a while. The good news is I have been doing a lot of sketching and experimenting with ideas. It has been great fun and I want to keep it up. We hope to be back on the road again soon…

Horse of Gold

Horse of Gold
Growing up in Washington DC and on the Chesapeake Bay, I never really noticed that heat/humidity thing. But now, OMG, after spending my first summer in the area in over 25 years, I get it. "It’s not the heat, it's the humidity!" I was able to draw some, but weeks with temperatures over 90° and crushing humidity left me clinging to the air conditioner and reading trashy murder mysteries. I did make it to the Gold Horses at Arlington Memorial Bridge to draw for a bit.

Memories in a Garden

Memories in a Garden
I am definitely time tripping as I go around sketching the Washington, DC that my family has lived in for four generations. So much has changed, but most of the places I am drawn (ha, ha) to are the same ones I have been visiting since I was a small child.

Drawing around Washington, DC is turning out to be lots of fun, if a little hot and humid. OK, very humid. I like being a tourist in my original hometown.

Muhammad Ali- The Boy on the Cliff
We are hanging out in Washington DC this summer. We will be watching Calli ride her new horse-Maggie, seeing friends and family and I will be having Blue Light Therapy on my face and some other body parts. I plan to go out two or three times a week and draw some of my favorite places in DC. Yes, I will be wearing sunscreen, hats, long pants and long sleeves.
