One tiny step to remodeling (slightly) the Tiny Texas Tumbleweed : Hot water heater rv bench
Sheri and I tried the built-in bench in the Tiny Texas Tumbleweed. Yuk. Not comfortable. Not usable. Couldn’t seat two people sensibly and watch TV or even talk.

Busy? An easy way to help far-away people not feel forgotten: An Easter Gift Basket
Sheri’s mom lives in Dallas (4 hours from Austin) and my mother lives in Nebraska (14 hours from Austin). It is very hard in this modern world to have the families be geographically close.

The best cream cheese Danish I have had in Texas – Collin Street Bakery
Somewhere between Dallas and Austin on I-35 there exists a bakery oasis. Even the building looks like a shining marble acropolis. But you can’t appreciate this oasis without context. Context starts here. I’ll apologize to the Texans because, sorry to say, the kolaches in West, Texas are NOT a bakery oasis. (Editor side note: Those […]
Even you can be part of a Wonderful Life “House Blessing”
One of the most power and endearing scenes in the classic movie “Its a Wonderful Life” is where Mary and George bless one of their lending clients houses. The scene underscores how central the little rickety savings and loan was to the lifeblood of Bedford Falls. It also cements the idea that the Baileys see […]
