Riding our Bikes along the Cape Cod Canal Bike Path

As long as you don’t say we are in Sandwich, MA you are fine.  (Jen hates that name for a town) Follow along with us as we get ready for and travel to the bike path along the Cape Cod Canal.  About 20 minutes from the Gateway to Cape Cod RV Resort, the path was […]

Have You Seen Martians? | Carlsbad Caverns National Park

We had to spend a few extra days at Big Bend National Park because there were incredibly high winds in our travel path.  (See the Big Bend Posts Here) When it was safe to leave we decided to go to Carlsbad Caverns National Park. The drive was about 5 hours in total, so we mapped our trip to […]

Our Terrifying First Boondocking Experience | Buckey Hills Arizona

Our first boondocking experience was anything but terrifying, now that we get to look back at it and smile.  In fact, it was a pleasant surprise despite our biggest fears, but we had to claw our way to that feeling of comfort, one cactus at a time.  When we set out to explore the US […]

Can you believe that Prada would not let us in!

Unbelievable that we drove all that way, down miles and miles of road without cell phone service for what seemed like hours… (wait it was – HOURS) just to arrive at the steps of Prada’s anchor store and be LOCKED OUT!  Don’t they know who we are!?!?! 

RVing in Columbus Texas Version 2.0

The day we drove into Columbus Texas we boondocked in a Walmart parking lot until our reservations began at Colorado River RV.  When we woke up, who would have thought you could witness the most amazing sunrise ever in a Walmart parking lot??   (The water in the foreground is a huge puddle in the parking […]

The RVLock Keyless Entry install

Since we first heard of RVLock ‘s keyless entry system for our fifth wheel, we thought about it each time we left our keys inside or had to go back to the camper to get something and left the keys at the pool, etc.  As they recently came out with their newest model the V4 […]

Alligators 3 Feet Away, Shark Valley Everglades NPS

Shark Valley Trail

When we initially charted our course through Florida, Miami was not on our list of places to visit.  Our primary reason for skipping Miami was their ridiculous breed ban legislation that would make Cole an outlaw.  Secondly, we just weren’t that into visiting the Everglades as a National Park destination.  We did have some work to […]

We have kept her alive for 7 years!

On her seventh birthday we celebrate her, and give ourselves a tiny pat on the back for keeping her mostly safe for all these years. I always go back to this blog post and re-read my words and feelings from the night we felt the full wrath of living with food allergies. Last night we […]
