Great adventures in diving, RVing and travel
We’ve had 8 fun days around the 170-mile-long Bay of Fundy, staying in 4 different locations (see map below), so we could experience the variety of this place. While most people have heard of the Bay of Fundy because of its extreme tides, we really didn’t have a good visual …
Yes, we could have included Acadia in our last post on Northern New England, but it deserves a post all to itself. While we had another rainy day driving across the state of Maine, the sun came out in the early evening, and we explored the “quietside of Acadia” in …
Leaving Cape Cod and heading around (not through) Boston, we drove to upstate Vermont, enjoying the beauty of the mountains and trees. We learned in Shenandoah, and it’s been true ever since, that the trees’ leaves in the spring give a hint of what they will be like in the …
What a lovely drive we had through southern Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts, making our way to Scusset Beach State Reservation (state park) on Cape Cod Bay. This was one of the easiest state parks we’ve tried to get into—no windy roads or flooded streets. Located just a little way …
Driving an RV around the New York City metro area is not for the faint of heart! Nor is trying to see the sights of this city in two rainy days. But we did it and lived to tell the tale, so here goes! We once again brought the rain …
We have traveled through some beautiful country since our last post, and we’ve seen a ton of family and friends. Today we made it to Jersey City, NJ, completing Phase I of our 15-week trip (traveling 3,214 miles in less than 3 weeks) (we’ll be exploring New York City over …
We made it through our thunderstorms and mechanical challenges, arriving at Cave City, Kentucky (in the southwest part of the state) on Thursday. The cats and Hank were delighted to learn that we weren’t moving the RV again for three days! While we sit and await the Kentucky Derby (on …
We’ve just completed our first week of 15 on our trip from SoCal to the East Coast, and what a week it has been! I’m sitting here in beautiful western Kentucky, where we are camped on the banks of the Mississippi River in Columbus-Belmont State Park, where the birds are …
We’ve had lots of questions about where we’re headed on this 15-week trip, so I thought I’d take this blog post to cover the broad strokes of our route. We have taken several long trips over the past few years, two months to Florida and back, two months to Minnesota …
You may be wondering, where the heck is Yermo? It’s about 120 miles northeast of Los Angeles in the middle of the Mojave Desert. And why would we go there at the start of our 15-week trip across the country? In the late 1800s, the town of Calico (near present-day …
