The States-On The Road: Janie Stein and Martin Bates are The States. Janie and I got our first motorhome, a 1984 Toyota Dolphin in May of 2009, we lived in it for the rest of the year. We started living full time in a Class C Jayco motor home and playing music and helping where we can as we go. We've upgraded twice, first with an up size then with a down size. We love our new little 20 mpg Winnebago Travato 59K. Come join us in our travels.
Now we live in the lovely 2016 Winnabego Travato 59K

Welcome to my blog
here I am, blogging. Recently, I was invited to Pay It Forward with a homemade gift to a friend. As I considered just what to make for her, I was struck that I only thought of "homemade" as things I couldn't do, i.e. build a photo frame with a nice calligraphy quote inside, or knit a sweater or crochet a shawl. When I started thinking of things I could do without learning how, I began to minimize their "homemadeness". When I concocted a facial spritzer in a plastic bottle, I thought, "Well, plastic isn't homemade," and "I just combined some things I bought, I didn't grow the witch hazel and roses for rosewater," etc. Then it came to me: everything we have is just a re-use of what the Creator has already made and gifted us. oh. yeah. and...thanks!
