As Flynn sits in a grocery store eating area outside of Knoxville, TN waiting for Karl to get an overdue oil change, he can’t help but marvel at the distance and adventures he has travelled in a mere 3 weeks. It is early, and the staff here in the store are doing their best to…
Poker from Afar, Wildlife Up Close
As most of our readers know, Flynn and Ollie have departed Sin City for northern parts of the USA. They spent some time in one of their other ‘homes’ near Yosemite, and then travelled NE to the SW of SD. Basically, they covered all the directional letters, hitting poker rooms in Reno and Elko on…
The Story of the Backwards Pioneers
Off to make their fortunes, Flynn and Ollie set off in their covered wagon being pulled by the many faithful horses, all named Karl. Leaving the homestead was bittersweet; the draw of the unknown and new adventures outweighing the appeal of picking onions. They crossed Donner Pass without eating the cat. They crossed the high…
Full of hot air ~ Road-tripping
Flynn and Ollie made it back to the foothills of the Sierras mid-September. They settled in for a few weeks in the home-park, were miserable with the Covid for a bit, and took a well-deserved rest from the previous 3 months. Additionally, it gave the avian and mammal time to take care of some business:…
August 2023. KOA is Starbucks, AmIRight?
Backtracking a bit, the editors will fill you in on the journey to Cody, WY which you read previously. Upon departing KY, the next three nights were spent camping for free on three different total strangers’ properties. Flynn and Ollie are not above a little squatting when necessary. Nah, it’s called Harvest Host, and the…
F&O Off & Running
Set up in their new home mid-July, F&O took it for a shake-down run near the dealership for a few days, as they didn’t want to stray too far from a business that would be required to make repairs if needed. None were needed, which is a bloomin’ miracle in the RV world. If you…
July & a Bit of August 2023 ~ We Did What?
Where to start? F&O survived Red Bay, AL for 5 weeks. This was a massive undertaking, as the town is dry, small, seriously Baptist, full of ‘blessings’, as well as being hot as Hades, humid, lots and lots of thunderstorms, and boring as boring can be for two critters who prefer to roam. The closest…
Where The F Is The Dish Drainer?
Okay, so we jump ahead. The Chronicle will fill in the missing 5 weeks of our travels at a (soon) later date, but just felt the need to share this story from small town Heiskell, TN. Those of you privy to the Red Bay Email String will especially appreciate this short saga. F&O are holed…
April, May, June, and some of July
No, the bird and otter have not fallen off the face of the earth. They have not gone dark, they have not bowed out of the blog entertainment. They have been spending their time doing things they don’t remember. Getting old does that to you. We departed LV in mid-April and went back to Coarsegold,…
Most of March 2023 – Adventures in RVing
The Chronicle has been remiss, but the editors do not apologize. They can do whatever they want, when they want, and this includes keeping everyone in the dark about the activities in their world. To catch you up, they did make it to central CA, squeezing the travel day in between storms. They camped overnight in…
