We’ve shared our monthly expenses for March, April, May, June, July, August, and September. Below are our expenses for October. Let us bring you […]
Monthly Expenses for Full-Time RVing – September 2016

We’ve shared our monthly expenses for March, April, May, June, July, and August. Below are our expenses for September. Let us bring you adventure every […]
At the Intersection of Adventure: Damascus, Virginia
I’m always delighted to pass through a town years after I last visited. Mapping my memories of the old place to the present place becomes an interesting exercise in determining what has actually changed and what remains the same yet I view differently. Damascus, Virginia, a tiny town in southwest Virginia that is a hub […]
The Kindness of Strangers
One surprise I continue to experience on this trip is the kindness of strangers. This trip has been such a gift in so many ways, and amidst the ugliness of our presidential election, it has really restored my belief that most people are good. While biking a 17 mile section of the Virginia Creeper Trail in […]
Touring the National Mall and Memorials, Washington, DC
We figured a trip around America wasn’t complete without a visit to our nation’s capital, especially given that the National Park Service manages the National Mall. We stayed with some friends in Virginia and rode the train into Washington, DC, where we hopped off the train at the Smithsonian. We could not have asked for […]
Senioritis in the Home Stretch of our Adventure
We were driving south out of Shenandoah National Park and I saw it. The sign for North Carolina, home. I was hit with the want and need for a house, a shower, and family. Part of me wanted to grab the wheel from Mark and veer right so badly. As the end of this trip […]
Wild Ponies in the Grayson Highlands, Virginia
While camped in Damascus in the far southwestern corner of Virginia, we drove thirty miles to Grayson Highlands State Park. The park is high in the mountains near Mt. Rogers, and several short trails from the park road and parking areas lead to an open, grassy ridge line, providing long-range, 360 degree views of the […]
Being a Lame Dad in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia
Ten years ago on my Appalachian Trail thru-hike, I hiked 38 miles through a day and most of a night to reach Harpers Ferry in time to catch the Friday morning 7am train into Washington, DC. I will never forget the events of this day, and on our Airstream adventure around America, I just had […]
Chime Time in the Bell Tower at Cornell University
We have a Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood DVD that both Jane and Wilson love. It has 3 episodes of the show on it, and Jane can recite every line of every episode. Super fun to watch…SUPER. In one of the episodes, the character’s picnic ends up getting rained out. They decide to have an indoor picnic at a […]
Fall in Shenandoah National Park, Virginia
After leaving Harper’s Ferry, WV, we traveled south through Shenandoah National Park in Virginia along Skyline Drive, continuing our mission to spend as much time as possible in the turning leaves of fall. Skyline Drive runs 105 miles through the park from Front Royal, VA in the north to Waynesboro, VA in the south, and […]
