Aug 13, 2024 – The Windiest Spot in America
It was our intention to spend a few days in New Hampshire’s White Mountains, do some hiking and visit the Mount Washington summit. We did both of those things, but with only one day to do them. As it were, our plans to be in New Hampshire for a few days were thwarted for the … Continue reading Aug 13, 2024 – The Windiest Spot in America
Aug 2, 2024 – The Northeasternmost State
When we are not traveling around the country, our RV is parked on Chokoloskee Island, in southern Florida and on the Gulf of Mexico. We are surrounded by a subtropical saltwater wilderness of mangrove forest islands and sandy beaches littered with shells and hurricane tree debris. The highest elevation is sea level. Mostly, sunrise and … Continue reading Aug 2, 2024 – The Northeasternmost State
Jul 21, 2023 – The Sea Bound Coast
Having been in Canada for 34 days and parked mostly within national parks, Halifax (the most populous city in Nova Scotia) would be the beginning of the end of our Canadian Maritimes tour. In another week, we would be back in the states and saying goodbye to our travel companions Spencer and Lorraine. Our route … Continue reading Jul 21, 2023 – The Sea Bound Coast
Jul 10, 2024 – The Cape
Heading toward Cheticamp Campground along the Cabot Trail in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. Fog over the Bay of Fundy adds to the beauty of it, whereas fog over Cape Breton completely devours it. That’s what we learned after arriving at the Cheticamp Campground within Cape Breton Highlands National Park. During the first four days there, … Continue reading Jul 10, 2024 – The Cape
Jun 28, 2023 – The Island
After leaving Fundy National Park, we crossed the Confederation Bridge to Prince Edward island. When sustained wind speeds reach 40 mph, high-sided vehicles can be restricted. The bridge is 8 miles long, the longest in the world to cross over icy waters. It replaced ferry service to the island in 1997. Upon arriving at our … Continue reading Jun 28, 2023 – The Island
Jun 27, 2023 – Fundy Fog Forever on My Mind
A few hours after arriving at Headquarters Campground in Fundy National Park, I stepped out into the cool evening and headed to the Bay of Fundy. Breathing in the salt air, I felt the joy of anticipation and being in a place so wildly new and different. After a 5-min walk, I stood on the … Continue reading Jun 27, 2023 – Fundy Fog Forever on My Mind
Jun 8, 2024 – Electra’s Collection in Vermont
The United States is filled with hidden gems and I guarantee you won’t find them unless you travel by RV. It seems every place we visit has a hidden gem and quite often, it comes with a fascinating story and/or fascinating person. And here is one of those hidden gems from Shelburne, Vermont. Electra Havemeyer … Continue reading Jun 8, 2024 – Electra’s Collection in Vermont
Sep 28, 2023 – The Big Friendly
New York has its Big Apple, Louisiana its Big Easy and Oklahoma its Big Friendly. Does Oklahoma City live up to its big nickname? Having spent a couple days in and around the city, I would say yes – the campground host, the Uber drivers, the security guards at the capitol building, the park ranger … Continue reading Sep 28, 2023 – The Big Friendly
Sep 25, 2023 – A Bad Thing Happened in Oklahoma
Traveling from Colorado to Tennessee, it didn’t make sense to go 250 miles out of our way. But we did anyway. Of all the places we intended to visit east of the Rocky Mountains, I was most excited about the Wichita Mountains, which were a little out of the way. Not only that, our state … Continue reading Sep 25, 2023 – A Bad Thing Happened in Oklahoma
