our second big adventure last week was a road trip to providence, rhode island. originally, i had planned to spend the day there when we had to take derek to the airport, except his flight was canceled and his new one was out of boston and his return flight to providence was late at night […]
museum
old sturbridge village x2.
i had to save this post for the last of my adventures in sturbridge, massachusetts posts, for one because it was taking a million years for my pics to go from my phone to the cloud. and for two, because it was taking another million years for derek to send me some pics that he […]
single mom in sturbridge mass.
**warning: this post is mega-long** the spot we finally decided on in sturbridge was next to the beach/lake, store/office, pool and rec area. it’s pretty convenient, even if strangers tend to feel very comfortable taking a shortcut through our site to get to any of these places. (and messing with our stuff…) lakeside: being next […]
the third and final week in accord. thankfully.
our third week in accord (and our last week in new york state) started off with car trouble, as mentioned in the previous post. so, we were stuck to the campground, while derek handled overseeing the repair of our trusty steed. on sunday, since we had a late start getting to the pool, all of […]
albany field trip.
the one positive for staying in one park for more than a week is that we can plan big family trips for the weekend days, instead of packing up and traveling. i’m sure derek feels the same. so on saturday, we decided to head to albany, for a family field trip. on the way in, […]
accord new york, week two.
i didn’t think it was possible, but our second week in accord was even more lazy than our first. we kicked if off by heading back to the pool. i don’t remember why hazel was sad. probably because i told her to stop running. sunbathers. the kids have been spending a lot of time at […]

ohio. week 1.
at first glance, we thought our trip to ohio would be sort of boring. our site seemed to be in the middle of nowhere. we were mostly just trying to get a few free weeks in our network of rv parks that we are members of (thousand trails). anyhow, on our first day, we did […]
