We have been having a wonderful time with both Christmas and having Greg visit us for a couple of weeks. But, Las Vegas just isn’t somewhere that I feel super comfortable, and we probably won’t be in a big hurry to get back here (especially since the TT campground here does NOT have candy bar […]
Death Valley National Park…
Last week we spent a day driving through Death Valley National Park. We left the 5th wheel and truck parked at the Walmart in Pahrump, NV, and took the van through the park. It’s a big park. We drove in through Death Valley Junction from Pahrump. We left with enough fuel to last the day, […]
Celebrating Christmas in an RV!!!
This was our 3rd year celebrating Christmas in an rv, on the road. Our first was spent in the Lake Whitney COE park in Texas, last year we were in Phoenix but drove home for a quick week with Greg who had stayed back in MT to work, and this year we are in NV! […]
underage gambling via candy bar bingo…
backtracking… Last week we spent 3 nights out in the middle of nowhere south of San Francisco. The RV park, San Benito, was a quiet (very quiet) park with all sorts of amenities, but since it was pretty cold while we were there, we didn’t take advantage of them. We are loving that so much […]
TOS Review – World's Greatest Stories…
One of the things that we do a ton of, since we spend so much time driving, is to listen to cds in the van. As part of The Old Schoolhouse magazine’s review crew, I was able to review a very different set of ‘dramatized Bible stories’. These Bible ‘stories’ are different from any that […]
getting ready for Christmas in an RV park…
Today was a rather eclectic day! For us northerners, Christmas time usually means parkas and sleds and hot cocoa in front of a fire. This afternoon it didn’t feel as tho Christmas is a mere 6 days away! Today we checked into our 4th Thousand Trails park, this one we are scheduled to be in […]
One Very Sweet Stop… the Jelly Belly factory tour!
When we stayed at our first Thousand Trails park, Russian River near Cloverdale, one of the papers that they gave us highlighted local attractions. I loved that they had already rounded them up for us! Right away we noticed that the Jelly Belly factory tour was on the list! Now, we hadn’t particularly been looking […]
salt water…playing on the beach
On our way down the California coast, we stopped alongside the road (there was a little state park with a parking lot that would fit, although barely, our 5th wheel). We had hoped to go tide pooling, but had not found a great spot that coincided with our traveling schedule, so we decided that we […]
Redwoods National Park…
We’ve been on the road for only 3 weeks and I’m already behind in my posts, and to be honest, I’m not totally sure what day this was, nor am I ever quite sure what day it currently is… (I think that this was last Tuesday…LOL!) We had spent Monday night in the Walmart parking […]
