Sunday, April 22nd Miss Kya got me up early on Sunday morning so I was able to take her for a morning toodle and see sunrise on the beach before we left Cape Hatteras! Excellent! We headed west on Historic Albermarle Highway (64 West). Our stop for Sunday afternoon was Apex, NC, located near the …
Tuesday, April 17th We left Assateague in the morning after seeing three horses steal our neighbors food. They were tenting and the horses can be quite brazen. Luckily everybody saw the humor in the situation! We had a great easy drive down to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. A marvel of technology. It is over …
Saturday, April 14th A beautiful sunny day with temps in the 70s. We left NJ and headed to Maryland. A lovely drive down to the coast mostly off-highway on Route 1 and then 113. We crossed over the Verrazano Bridge (not that Verrazano Bridge), arrived on the island and immediately saw wild horses by the …
A lot going on: retirement, Gary’s birthday and the start of a two-month trip. We were able to get work completed, pack up for a two-month trip, and leave when we had hoped to… despite a late start to spring in the Northeast, an unexpected furnace problem on the RV, and a re-occurrence of Kya’s …
Well, it’s been awhile since I’ve done one of these! We got back from our cross country trip on July 1 and haven’t done much traveling since. One does have to work on occasion. 🙂 We had two additional camping outings this summer. One to Boothbay, Maine for a few days in August and the …
Schodack Island State Park, Albany, NY Thursday, June 29th, we head off in the morning for our next stop. Weather is sunny and cool. We have a nice drive through rural parts of New York state with not a lot of traffic but a fair amount of construction. Although since there is so little traffic, …

Tuesday, June 27th, we headed off in the morning for Lawrenceville, PA. Roads are either getting better or I’m just getting used to these narrow, winding roads and don’t get as freaked out anymore. I think it’s a combination of the two. We see rolling hills, sheep and cattle grazing, and enjoy lovely temps and …
Sunday, June 25th, we head through Kentucky on into West Virginia and just pass into PA. Once again through this part of Kentucky are some beautiful fenced in horse paddocks, gorgeous stately homes, and open flat roads. Once into West Virginia, the terrain looks more like NH with trees on either side of the highway …
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 …
