Ready Player One (2018)

celticeagle @celticeagle (189789) • Boise, Idaho 26 Dec

This is a great Spielberg movie with Tye Sheridan and Olivia Cooke along with a lot of other fun actors. (You might remember Olivia from "Bates Hotel" TV series.) My grandson and I had watched this halfway several months ago and...

Jim Bauer @porwest (112717) • United States 11 Sep

It's the last camp of the season for us, and very soon we'll begin prepping to have the camper winterized, and this year it looks like we will replace the tires. Last year they quoted me $700 for all four, which I thought wasn't...

It Wasn't Different After All

Jim Bauer @porwest (112717) • United States 3 Jun 25

Plans change, and then they don't. I told you earlier that our guests had decided for our last camping trip that they would opt to sleep on the pull out bed in the living room/kitchen area, but last minute when they arrived they...

Our Friday ALMOST Turned into a Nightmare

Jim Bauer @porwest (112717) • United States 2 Jun 25

They say that almost every camping trip will have a hiccup or two to deal with, although I'd have to say we've been mostly lucky—knock on wood. On Thursday night we had some heavy rain and the power flickered a bit...

It Will Be Different This Time

Jim Bauer @porwest (112717) • United States 28 May 25

Normally when we have guests camping with us, they generally opt to sleep in the bunk room, which, believe it or not is quite roomy. It gives them their own privacy and space. But we do have a pullout bed in the living...

I'm Gonna Need a Walmart

Jim Bauer @porwest (112717) • United States 10 Mar 25

I thought it was a bit of a funny poll question this morning on Bing, "Would you sign up to live on another planet?" For one thing, isn't that a bit of an open-ended question that requires more than just a simple yes or no...

Off to See My Mammy

Jim Bauer @porwest (112717) • United States 13 Feb 25

For the record, I have never once ever called my mom my mammy, just to be clear. But I thought it was a fun little play on words for a catchy little title. But I plan on paying her a visit today. Something I have decided to do on...

Would you explore this crevice/cave?

Pitstop @pitstop (15551) • Australia 3 Jan 25

The rock beach we visited had an interesting crevice on the shore amongst the rock formation. You could see a few feet into it and then the light was not enough. It was wide enough to possibly squeeze in, but I wonder what lurks...
