Older First-Timer
Hi! My name is Helen and I'm 64 years old. I created this blog as sort of a nudge to myself. When I see that age 64, I think oh dear, I'm too old to start over, what am I thinking?? But I just don't feel it yet. I'm feeling pretty good, no major medical problems, knock on wood! ouch! :)
These are just my thoughts right now, but I feel I'm right on the edge of making a huge change in my life. It will take many baby steps, I know. So I created this blog hoping for…

What it cost me to build my own camper & how long it took me

I built the floor and camper shell out of 3/4" plywood and used 2x3" cross members for the roof which I covered with luon before the Aluminum went on. I used…

Cook Forest, Pa. - part 1
Rewind. A week and a half ago I asked Nick you want to go camping? I called Cooks Forest in Pa they had two spot lefts. I grabbed one and made plans. I tried to rally a few people into going but you know what, I am tired of cheer leading so it was me and Nick and that's alright by me. Nicks… Continue

Back from Cook Forest, Pa. - intro
Just returned from a 3 day escape to Cooks Forest. A quickly planned trip. For the most part things went well. It was a quieter trip, a trip to unclutter the mind as the camp chaplain said.
I saw things and areas that I have never been to before. And its not that far from my home, about 160 miles away. Not sure why I never went before. Maybe the high price of gas is good, its keeping me closer to home – yeah right.
It really is disturbing what has happened… Continue

An even OLDER first-timer taking baby steps, although I made a big boo-boo on eBay. (Don't know how to handle this web site, so this is an experiment.) Name is Carol.
