February 2010, Snowbirds CoverHello my name is Randy Hamilton and I traveled with my wife Sharon and 2 dogs, Jack and Jinjer, for over 4 years full-time in our 36′ 1998 Cruisemaster motor home.

We now have visitors routed to the One Shoe Diaires where our blog now resides. But to keep the distinction between the old and new posts we created a category titled DogParks and Brewpubs which will [...]

The Hand and Foot Show @ Moon Gallery, Berry College in Rome, Georgia
Well despite low turnout, which i attribute to me slacking on the PR end of things, I feel it was a success. It was hung at a beautiful location in a great looking gallery. Hopefully it can be a springboard to getting more [...]
