Great adventures in diving, RVing and travel
This is our year of short trips, and we just completed another short RV trip through three of our favorite states: California, Oregon, and Washington. Heading out from Southern California in mid-July is always tricky because no matter what direction you go, it’s bound to be hot! When we left …
We just finished a short (2-week) trip exploring a small portion of the California coastline. If you’ve read our blog posts before, or taken a look at our About Us section, you know that it’s all about the critters for us, though of course we also delight in gorgeous scenery, …

July 2018 — Visiting the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) was a dream that Hank had had for over 30 years. While we didn’t feel up to a 2-week canoe-packing trip (nor could we have left the cats alone in the motorhome), we still wanted to experience this outdoor adventure …
