Hello, to new visitors and current reader friends!
I'm excited to share the release of POWER OF THE ONE by JT Adeline, the book I edited. This is the third book in the young adult (YA) series, The Power of the One. Although this is categorized as a YA series, it doesn't mean you must be a young adult to read the books. JT is an amazing storyteller, and I love this series. Here are links to the other two books. POWER OF THE CIRCLE, book one and POWER OF THE STONES, book two.
As summer slowly turns to fall, so do our camping adventures. We have one more trip to SW Minnesota at the beginning of October. It will be nice to have a heater in the travel trailer if it's too cold. I've been busy at home making my youngest son's t-shirt quilt. I'm a few years late completing the quilt, but he'll be surprised when he receives it at Christmas. I've shared pictures from our most recent trips below.
As always, thank you for visiting! If you have any questions about my travels or camping, please contact me.

Hello, to new visitors and current reader friends!
It's been a busy spring/summer. I've completed my first editing job on the third in a series. You can read more about this in my March post. I'm not sure when it will be released, but I'll let you know here. In between all of my amazing adventures, I've also been working on websites and creating trailers. If you have any interest in seeing the book trailers I create for other authors, you can subscribe to my YouTube channel. You'll be notified when I post a new video. Or you can simply visit my page and check them at your lesiure.
I had a successful trigger finger surgery, camped in the Arrowhead area of Minnesota and visited the Minnesota-Canadian border (very cold tent camping), visited Las Vegas, had family time at a resort in northwestern Minnesota and took a day to visit Lake Itasca to see where the mighty Mississippi begins, and camped at Interstate Park on the Minnesota side but hiked on both sides of the park (MN and WI). The camping at Interstate Park was our last tent camping trip and we're both glad that we purchased a travel trailer. Sleeping in the bed of a truck on an air mattress has its downsides when you get older. Kneeling on the truck bed doesn't feel the greatest, even with a blanket, on your knees. The air mattress is like a waterbed. One person moves, and so does the one you're sleeping with. We completed a couple of projects around the house as well, in between our trips, putting in a patio, redoing our dry riverbed sides, seeding for a wildflower garden, and working on making our new, used travel trailer to meet our needs. I must admit, RJ has done a good portion of the work with some help from me.
What's coming up? We have four camping trips planned using the travel trailer. We're both very excited to have the trailer. Continuing to support the state MLS team, Minnesota United FC attending games, as a season ticket holder.
As always, thank you for visiting! If you have any questions about my travels or camping, please contact me.

RJ and I at Gooseberry Falls on the North Shore in Minnesota
March 2024
Hello, to new visitors and current reader friends!
Winter in west-central Wisconsin has been brown due to the lack of the white stuff falling and I'm not going to complain. Although, there was no snow for Christmas which was slightly disappointing because, those who traveled to visit and stay with us, didn't have any issues.
If you're wondering what I do to occupy my time since I'm not writing, I am working on editing a book for my publisher for the next couple of months. The book is the third in a series and I've read the first one. This is a Young Adult (YA) series, among her other books and series. Here are the Amazon links to the first two books in the series if you're interested, Power of the Circle and Power of the Stones. If you're someone who reads one genre, be like me and broaden your horizons. The book world is large enough to handle your reading exploration.
In April I will have trigger finger surgery again, visiting the northern north shore of Minnesota, and taking RJ to experience Las Vegas with some friends. Come back for another update.

Hello, to new visitors and current reader friends!
Happy New Year!
It is my hope that the start of the new year is going well for you. I can't complain about the start for myself. On January 12, on the walkway of the beach on Waikiki, O'ahu, Hawai'i, RJ purposed. The next day, we set sail on a week-long cruise around the Hawaiian islands, followed by a week on Kauai. Unfortunately, we did not get to stop on the Island of Hawai'i (the big island) due to weather affecting the seas. We were fortunate enough to see a lot of whale activity on our snorkel adventure while visiting Maui.

Do I look a little shocked? Oh, I was 100 percent shocked, but that quickly changed to happiness.

Taming the Texas Beauty
"In typical romantic suspense style, it’s the suspense that keeps these characters apart more than their own choice. However, where sometimes the suspense seems overdramatized with its only purpose to keep the characters apart, that’s not the care here: the suspense feels very real..."
