Cabin Truths #16: Caterpillar Season (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Some places log time based on the seasonal shifts in the weather. You know, the typical summer, fall, winter and spring. But not in this household!

Some are thriving, bustling towns with amenities, parking and options. And on the other hand, some are literally just a junction: a place to get fuel and maybe a corndog from the gas station before 5 pm and definitely not on a Sunday.We live in the latter version, sort of. There are a fewww options (TWO gas stations! a coffee stand!), bu
