Finding Fun in Albuquerque!

by | posted in: Fun Finder Trip 2010 | 0

What do you get when you take a guy (Kirk) who wanted a simple camping trailer, and a girl (Andrea) who wanted a full size motorhome? You get the Fun Finder X-139! Barely 14 feet long, this baby has it all! A true trailer on the outside, an all-inclusive home-on-the-road inside … full bathroom included! And after we had seen this fun little thing at the Sacramento RV Show in early March, we were hooked. Finding it (used) anywhere near the … Read More

Got a 2009 model RV, self-served our convenience packs including extra dishes, plaids, and chemicals. Invaded WalMart, stowed all stuff, and headed south to Chula Vista. TomTom was quite helpful, but finally stopped us 1 mile away from KOA San Diego. Asking a guy on the street finally got us to … Read More

Heavenly skiing …

by | posted in: Weekend Travel | 0

Heavenly! That’s how I usually feel on the slopes of Lake Tahoe’s highest elevation ski resort Heavenly! This weekend, we’re on our next trip up to the snow – spening Friday night at TimberLodge again, to enjoy a full day skiing. The usual suspects (Andrea & Kirk, Kristina & Clae & Kody) are being joined this time by the Stewarts (Alexis & Matt & Jake & Kobe), to test the motto; “the more the merrier”. While Kristina & Alexis took the boys sledding … Read More

Kirk in the Woods?

by | posted in: Weekend Travel | 0

Skiing on groomed runs is one thing. Skiing through the woods is a different thing. For this year, Kirk and I will stick to the easy/intermediate runs. And today we’ve chosen another one of my favorite ski resorts in the Sierra: Kirkwood! (the name says it all) The 3rd time is a charm, right? So heading up the mountains on a Sunday morning at 6am (leaving Dublin) / 6:30am (leaving Livermore, Kristina, Clae, Kirk & me – all piled up the Murano) has … Read More

Only You can motivate Yourself, but Others can inspire You! Well, I have been inspired to do something good this year – for myself and the community: I will participate in the 2010 Avon Walk For Breast Cancer in San Francisco, CA on the July 10+11 weekend! To get myself in better shape (walking 39 miles in 2 days needs some preparation) and to raise funds to fight cancer ($1,800 minimum goal)! More to follow in upcoming posts … but … Read More
