Friday, June 23rd, we head East in the morning for our next stop which is a 2 1/2 hour drive over to the Kentucky Horse Park Campground just outside the Lexington area. We were on winding back roads and some highways. Once we got closer to Lexington, the terrain changed to be more open roads,…

Wed., June 21st, we left Babler State Park and headed through St. Louis and over the Mississippi River into Illinois, then Indiana, and then into Kentucky. It was very busy through St. Louis but then quieted down after that. We traveled through more farmland (corn), cattle grazing, and we thought Kentucky was reminiscent of New…

We had another late night or I should say early morning of storms… thunder, lightening, and sheets of rain. We never heard rain like that. It was as if God turned on the faucet and let ‘er rip. Went on and on. It eventually stopped and then started up again a few hours later but…

We left Custer State Park on Wednesday, June 14th, and spent the entire day traversing South Dakota from west to east. A far cry from our New England states where you can go through four states in as many hours. Traffic was non existent with wide open fields of crops and cattle grazing. We saw…

We headed off on Saturday, June 10th, for Custer State Park. Because of the flooding in the Dubois area, we encounter road closures and have to make a detour. Something that would have thrown me prior to our RV training… worrying about the roads we’d land on. Now, I take it in stride… mostly. A…

Thursday, June 8th, we managed to safely get out of our tight site at the West Yellowstone KOA and navigate through their equally tight roads. Gary’s getting expert at getting out of tight campground spaces. We head off for a 225 mile drive to Dubois, WY. We are driving back through parts of Idaho and…

Bruneau Dunes the day after the windstorm (Monday, June 5) was beautiful. To see the dunes in the early morning light was special. If we were staying another day, I would have climbed up in the cool morning before the heat of the day hit. But, alas, we have other places to get to. You…

Friday, June 2nd, dawned and it was time to move on from the Olympic Peninsula. Sherrie came out to say goodbye, our retired navy neighbor. We took pictures of each other and exchanged addresses. She should be in New England next summer and we hope to see her then. (She and Mom, the two navy…

Tuesday, May 30th, was a chore day. Gary had an oil change done on his truck and I tackled laundry, we paid some bills online and other fun things like that. Then we had RV Training for two days (May 31st & June 1st). Dan was our instructor. He looked like Santa with a full…

Day 11 (Saturday, May 27th) We pulled up stakes at Stub Stewart and moved on to Rainbow’s End RV Park in Sequim WA. Had a really pretty ride up the Pacific Coast Scenic Byway (Highway 101). Just gorgeous…. water on one side and lots of oyster flats, which to us looked like clamming. And patches…

Day 8 (May 24, 2017) We picked up our fifth wheel on Day 8. We were to be there at 7AM. Naturally this was the one night that Kya had us up twice with an upset tummy. She slept through the night for the first 7 nights just fine. We roll in at 7am to the…

We made it across the country. A first for Gary and I… and to think that you can cross in 7 days is a bit hard to fathom. Why the rush? Because we were picking up our new Arctic Fox 5th wheel. We wanted to be able to stay in our “tiny home” as Gary…
