I wanted to find a way to show everyone inside the camper more fully, and then it hit me. Duh! Just make a video and post it on YouTube and presto. Voila. Tour accomplished. Like it says in the video, it's a 39' Keystone Passport...

Jim Bauer @moffittjc Yep. To me that's one of the highlights. To me the camper is just a place to relax a bit in the morning and evening, have some "creature comforts," and sleep.

I am an old fart, but I think I'd get bored if I retired. I more or less stopped teaching at the College when everything went "online." But I kept on working with littlies as a teacher and took my current position as a music...

For whatever reason, we decided to add some camps in this year, and so far, we're already going to be at the entire season's number of 4 or 5 by the end of the month. We're off this weekend. In fact, I will be hooking up later...

Jim Bauer Thank you. So far so good. No complaints other than it's been a bit hot. But it is what it is.

Are you already celebrating? I've been hearing the fireworks for the past several nights. How's your weather? We've been in a sauna here with the heat index rising to 107. We're finally cooling off. Today our high will be 78 and...

Jim Bauer Hot as balls, as some might say. But last night it did let up a little bit, but it will be another hot one today. As I write this, it's 827am and already 80.

Bob sleeps through it all. No rain, yet. It probably is coming. It could rain all day, clear up tonight for those who have big displays, and I would be happy. Many of us have complained about the heat, but it has not reached 100...

Jim Bauer Yeah, it never fails, the fireworks start in numbers as the 4th approaches. Certainly, people were enjoying some last night and I suspect the "noise" will continue for the next few days. Happy 4th to you and yours as well.

It actually wasn't my idea, per se. My wife's cousin, Lorie, filled me in on it. I get two cups of coffee out of a single K-Cup pod, or, 16 ounces. The coffee tastes just fine to me. Now, here's the flip side. [i]I do not...

Jim Bauer I used to be very adamantly opposed to them. But they do have practical purposes, and I have lightened up a bit on them.

Jim Bauer I guess for me coffee is coffee, plus I'm cheap and want to use everything up. lol. Our coffee pot at home is a dual-brew, and even though we rarely use the pods at home, we do keep some handy. They also come in handy for guests who just want a quick, fresh...

Jim Bauer I actually don't mind grilling. In fact, when it's super-hot, that's the best time to cook outside if you don't want to go out or order in.
