HOME
STATION 
|
This
is the Headquarters of the Home Station . Ground was
broken in
the Spring of 1998. For sixteen years prior to that time Pa
and Ma toured the Southeast of the USA in an RV. Home
was where we parked it. It was a great life 'on the road' as
'full timers' - a great life. But, it was time to 'hang up the
keys'.
The Home Station is located in Michigan "Up North". The nearest town is Grayling. The lot, an acre and a half, for the Home Station had been available since sometime in 73'. In fact many times the Fifth Wheel or Motorcoach was parked in ' memory corner '. Heck, we even had water from a hand driven well and electricity from generators. The big event now at the Home
Station is an annual gathering in August of each year. We, of
course have a city of many tents for the
encampment. What do we do, well we eat and eat . Then we build a campfire,
play games
and roast goodies.
We may even drink a tad.
Each fall we depart the Home
Station. Mid November Pa and Ma turn into Mr and Mrs Santa Claus.
Come the New Year we return to the Home Station. Of course, winter has arrived. But, no never mind we have a nice fireplace and are quite cozy. We spend a lot of time watching TV. But, that
is not the only thing we do. Both Pa and Ma have our Hobbies.
Clutter is what you see when you
walk though the door into Pa's Office. This is not
clutter it is the Operation Center for Pa's hobbies of Computer &
Ham Radio. To keep this operation going it takes an antenna farm,
one for the Computer,
and others for the Ham Radio. One can not
store all data on a hard drive or floppy therefore, one needs a Bookcase
w/glass doors.
Upon entering Ma's Sewing
Room, one is greeted with a neat room. First you see a Futon. She
needs this, cause she works hard. Ma is also connected to the Internet
via a Home
Network. Her prime interests, however are reading and sewing. Her
sewing machine is neatly put away.
Hobbies are nice but, best of all
we like visitors. We welcome your visit, first find your way to
the intersection of I-75 and M-93 northeast of Grayling Michigan.
We know that you can do that - it is Exit 259. But, before you
come print this map.
Bring it along as it provides the final directions. It's easy --
just come North on Evelyn, to the sign, hang
right into the drive and you have arrived at the Home Station. If
you come to stay for awhile you can use Ma' Futon. Do not be surprised
if there are other visitors.
Ya all come see us bye and bye. But, most of all Take Care and Have Fun. |
