“I am blessed; we are just so blessed.” She said over and over during our visit.

Those words came from Cozy Stover, a parent of one of my former players, Kyle Stover.  I had done a podcast with Kyle back in November when we had the opportunity to visit him and his family in York, PA on our way down to Florida.

This past Thursday, we were able to stop and visit with Kyle’s parents, Rick and Cozy.  As with every other time that I’ve been around Rick and Cozy, it was a wonderful visit.

There was one thing, however, that was a little different about this visit. Rick was in a wheelchair from a stroke that he had suffered several weeks ago.  It was his second stroke in the past year.  The first one, back in August of 2020, was relatively mild.  Back in November, when we were visiting Kyle, he got Rick and Cozy on Facetime with us and you never would have known that he even had a stroke.

April Crossley – Life Should be an Experience

April and I have been friends on Facebook for several years, but have only really started to get to know one another last year when we found out that we were both getting ready to ditch the life that our society says that we should be living.

Within a few months of each other, Sandy and I in August of 2020 and April and her husband, Justin in October of 2020 started off on our new journeys.  We all had an understanding that life needs to be experienced by getting outside and soaking in Vitamin D while making memories that will last a lifetime.  All of the “things” that we end up accumulating over time are really just that, things.  Most of which are really not actually needed.  What is needed for the true human experience is connection.  Connection to others, to nature, and to God.

At 11 years old, she surpasses Ella Witman as the youngest guest that I’ve ever had on the show.

One of the three main locations that we stay at when we come back to visit in Pennsylvania is at Lizze’s parents house.  My daughter, Sherry, and son-in-law, Stephen have a beautiful 3-acre mountain-side property that backs up to the woods.

Phil & Shar Roos – A Year to Volunteer

Phil & Shar Roos – A Year to Volunteer

Posted by | Apr 23, 2021 | , , |

Phil and Shar are fellow full-time RVers.  Phil retired from the Navy after a 36-year career. Shar retired from Insurance and Finance. After years of doing humanitarian and volunteer work in their careers, they found themselves unfulfilled in their daily lives.  They wanted to travel, Phil initially wanted to sail across the world by boat, but Shar wasn’t having it.  She bought into the full-time RV concept, but wanted to do it with purpose. One day after work, during a conversation in the pool, Shar said, “Let’s take a year to volunteer,” and the “A Year to Volunteer” project was born.
