If you have to be stuck somewhere, I can think of worse places to be. Not able to get back on the road until August, Vivian and I take refuge from the outdoor inferno in our spacious and comfortable apartment. Consequently, I have more time to reflect on our past travels. To that end, I’ve … Continue reading July 12, 2025 – The Ten Most Memorable Experiences from our RV Travels

Looking Back – Top Ten Hidden Gems
The United States is full of hidden gems and you will not find them unless you take a road trip. I will go further and say that road tripping with a home on wheels is even better; it affords you the time to explore unbeaten paths, to seek out those hidden gems that are mostly … Continue reading Looking Back – Top Ten Hidden Gems
Looking Back – Imagine RV Travels without Public Lands
As I think about having pulled our home on wheels over 30,000 miles through parts of the United States, Scotland pops into my thoughts. Years ago while visiting the most northern country in the UK, we discovered an interesting fact about it - there are no ‘Keep Out’ signs on fences in the Scottish countryside. … Continue reading Looking Back – Imagine RV Travels without Public Lands
2021 Recap – RV Traveling Through New Mexico
For those RVers wishing to explore The Land of Enchantment, our itinerary may prove useful. This comes with a caveat and that is – there is so much more to New Mexico than what I have to offer here. Which is why we plan to come back and spend more time in the southwestern state … Continue reading 2021 Recap – RV Traveling Through New Mexico
May 20, 2021 – Our Visit to Northern New Mexico was Ruined
The road to Chaco Cultural National Historical Park is a long one. We learned the road is not maintained to help ward off looters and vandals. On a well maintained paved road is a lookout where you can view Frijoles Canyon, location of the Bandelier National Monument and a large number of ancient cliff dwellings. … Continue reading May 20, 2021 – Our Visit to Northern New Mexico was Ruined
May 12, 2021 – O’Keeffe’s Faraway Place
"If you ever go to New Mexico, it will itch you for the rest of your life." Georgia O'Keeffe The Ghost Ranch is located 65 miles northwest of Santa Fe. In the summer of 1929, a 32-yr-old modernist painter drove her Model T automobile from New York to a “faraway place” in northern New Mexico. … Continue reading May 12, 2021 – O’Keeffe’s Faraway Place
May 8, 2021 – Gateway to the Southwest
Downtown Santa Fe with its pueblo-style architecture and the Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi at the end of the street. All told, we came to Santa Fe to see one thing – the Georgia O’Keeffe museum. My determination was mostly driven by the fact that I had visited Santa Fe twice many years … Continue reading May 8, 2021 – Gateway to the Southwest
May 5, 2021 – Fire and Sand
Quite a change from our alligator warning signs in Florida. I am still waiting to see a sign warning visitors to "Don't feed the rattlesnakes". Traveling America’s southwest makes one want to be a geologist. While researching and preparing for our 2021 travels, we found Google’s satellite imagery of the areas of Utah and New … Continue reading May 5, 2021 – Fire and Sand
Apr 27, 2021 – Water and Dust
Caddo Lake State Park campground. If Vivian were writing our blog, this entry would not exist. In her mind, Texas was a fleeting moment that she was all too eager to put behind her and was not worthy of a blog. But, in all fairness a state that required 814 miles of driving to get … Continue reading Apr 27, 2021 – Water and Dust
