About


 I’m a 70+ year old guy who is married to his soul mate, Bev – age a secret, and we are both retired from Alcoa and enjoying our travel through the golden age of our lives.  We’ve been retired for several years and have always enjoyed entertaining our friends, doing a little flower and vegetable gardening, traveling some, taking pontoon boat rides on Tellico Lake, BBQing, and doing a little basic cooking - not much too fancy around here.

In the past decade, our lives have changed quite a bit, beginning with the purchase of an RV eight years ago and committing to travel more.  As a result, we are not gardening much and spending less time on the lake at Almost Heaven South but still cooking and BBQing.  

I generally travel with two females – wife and SIL who decided she’d like to travel with us - my main role is that of driver and travel agent.  Oh, and there are three dogs with us as well.  We are really enjoying the RVing experience, especially the people we meet and only wish we’d started 10 years sooner.

While we enjoy the travels, we still like our house in the country and going home to it.  We built it before we retired with the plan to spend the rest of our lives there and that continues to be the our goal – even a big RV gets close with three people in it for a couple of months. Another big change for us was when our friend Cindy moved in five years ago and now occupies the downstairs part of the house - she acts as our house/dog sitter when needed.   

While there are many types of blogs out there, this one continues to be a journal of our lives (hopefully our grand kids will read it someday), and will include some cooking, some restaurants, some travel, and some other stuff.  I really appreciate those of you who will spend you valuable time to read my ramblings and l always enjoy your comments.

  2. Tell Beverly that her cousin Bill and his wife are looking to move back to east Tennessee in 2018. We have our house in New Mexico under contract to sell now and will be living in our fifth wheel until we are ready to stop working and start traveling.
