We make plans and I find comfort in having a “plan.” I have a calendar and I make reservations and I like to know where we are going, how long we will be there and how much it will cost. Plans can be good but we have been learning that plans should be held loosely.…
After enjoying several good beach days and surviving 1 tropical storm in Bethany Beach, Delaware, we headed out to the Lewes Ferry Terminal to cross over into New Jersey. For $87 we booked passage on the ferry from Lewes, Delaware, to Cape May, New Jersey, for ourselves, Babe (the Ford F-350) and Old Glory. On…
After leaving Syracuse we hooked up Old Glory and headed toward Bethany Beach, Delaware. Canada will not be opening their border in time for us to visit PEI this year so we decided to try to visit some new states. There is a FamCamp in Delaware that we wanted to visit and they were able…
After spending 2 nights at Ramblin’ Pines Campground in Maryland, we packed up and continued our trek north. Just 130 miles up the road, we stopped over at Cabelas in Hamburg, PA. We had stayed at this Cabelas a couple of times in the past and its location makes it a perfect stop-over on our…
Ahhh Key West…for quite a while we have anticipated traveling to this destination. The Southernmost point in the USA, it is closer to Cuba than to its nearest Walmart. This land of sunshine, key lime pie and chickens was on our bucket list. So, after we finished up our workamping commitment at Avon Park AFR,…
The week we left Moonshine Creek morning temps were in the 20s and of course our furnace chose that week to quit working. We were able to get by with our electric fireplace and a small space heater. Knowing we were headed to warmer weather – we toughed it out. The furnace will be fixed…
We started with an excellent first day of travel April 18, 2019! At the Tucson Pilot truck stop we weighed Babe and Old Glory on the Cat Scale. The good news is our trailer weight is under – the bad news is our truck rear axle weight is a little bit over. We need to redistribute…
Our stay in Oklahoma has been relaxing and busy, productive and yet not stressful (except for maybe our quick visit to the tornado shelter ????) We have completed a puzzle and played multiple games of Dutch Blitz (Mark is the reigning champion.) We have enjoyed Mom’s garden tomatoes and cucumbers and also Braums $1 frozen…
Hello! We are in Oklahoma and plan to stay here for a couple of weeks. As you can see, Old Glory fits perfectly in my Mom’s driveway. While here Mark has changed the oil in Babe and in our generator. We have tried a new product called “Awesome” on the multiple bug splatters on Old…
Hello! As this is being published we should be on our last leg of this week’s journey. We are heading out from Fort Smith, Arkansas to Shawnee, Oklahoma. It has been a rainy week and the rain seemed to be following us. We have been in 4 states: North Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas and today we…
After we left Acadia we boondocked our way towards Maryland, stopping at Cabelas in Scarborough, ME; Cracker Barrel in Sturbridge, MA; WalMart in Newburgh, NY and finally at Cabelas in Hamburg, PA. We stayed 2 nights at the PA Cabelas. While there we noticed one of our tires was missing its little hub cap and…
After leaving PEI we headed back towards Maine. First we boondocked in Moncton, New Brunswick at a casino and the next night at St George, NB at Granite Town Farms (Harvest Host Blueberry Farm.) We took a little time to see more of St. George on our way back through this time. St. George is…
Our trip from Bangor, Maine to St. George, New Brunswick involved crossing the border into Canada! We FINALLY got to use our passports and the many lessons learned watching other RVers on youtube. The border crossing from Calais, Maine into St. Stephen, New Brunswick is called the “International” border crossing and it was built for…
We arrived in Fayetteville, NY at Green Lakes state park on July 3, 2018. We had made reservations for July 3-13. The only sites they had available when we made our reservations in May were dry camping sites – no hook ups. They also did not have 1 site available for our entire stay so…
