Great adventures in diving, RVing and travel
It took us a long time to get to Koror, Palau, but we are so glad we made the trip! We (and our eight dive buddies) traveled 7,174 miles across 17 time zones, flying from LAX to Honolulu (with our little tangential trip to Kauai—see previous post), where our flight …
It was so lovely to arrive back on Kauai (Hawaii) after not having been for five years. And it was even better that we were here with eight other dive buddies, enjoying a few days in Princeville before heading to our dive adventure in Palau (next post). The adventures began …
Because we had to leave Yellowstone a few days earlier than planned, due to the bad weather, it gave us the opportunity to insert some additions into our trip home. Yellowstone Bear World – About 80 miles from West Yellowstone, in the town of Rexburg, Idaho, is a private drive-through …
This was our fourth trip to Yellowstone, and we keep going back because of the amazing wildlife. It’s always an adventure, but this year was especially so for two reasons—the visible wildlife and the out-of-character weather.

Missouri:When we headed east at the end of April, we passed through southern Missouri to visit Laura Ingalls Wilder’s home in Mansfield. On our way west toward home, we came through a little further north, St. Louis to be exact. St. Louis has been a significant transportation and shipping hub …
It’s never fun to drive the RV in a big city, but we stuck to the outskirts of Chicago, arriving at our campground in the midst of a massive heat wave. Since we have explored much of Chicago on previous trips, this trip to the Windy City was mainly for …
We’re back in the U.S., crossing the border in New York, then whipping through a small corner of Pennsylvania before landing in Northeast Ohio at Punderson State Park, a lovely little campground next to a lake, where we had fabulous neighbors (Cathy and Dave) and enjoyed fireflies and being in …
Our last week in Canada began by crossing to the north side of the St. Lawrence River and then crossing from Quebec into Ontario, our last Canadian province of this trip. We were a little sad to leave Quebec, having gotten used to hearing and seeing French everywhere. But we …
