When we left San Francisco after Labor Day Weekend, we planned to spend a few days at Lake Tahoe. When we arrived at Lake Tahoe though, we decided to blow it off and blaze another six hours across The Loneliest Highway in America to Great Basin National Park. We’d already seen Tahoe, and we wanted […]
Cheers, to 7 Years!
Today is Mark and my 7th wedding anniversary. It celebrates the day we made two of the best decisions of our lives. The first was choosing each other as a partner in this life together. The second was having a wedding with only the small group of people above. I still remember trying to explain […]
I’m in Love with the Pacific Northwest
Guys. Maybe it’s because I’m currently in the Nevada desert, but I am missing the Pacific Northwest. Sure, the desert is a must see, but for anything longer than a few days, I’d gladly pass. The Pacific Northwest is where you want to spend your summer. I’m just saying. Not Portland or Seattle but the […]
Climbing on Goblins in Goblin Valley
On our way west, we learned of Goblin Valley State Park in Utah. We missed it while touring the National Parks in Utah, so we made a point to camp there on our way back east. The park is quite small, but the kids had an absolute blast there. The park is named for a […]
We Were Totally Robbed, Yall.
I’m of the belief that the overwhelming majority of people in the world are well intentioned and kind. On my various adventures, I’ve been on the receiving end of amazing acts of kindness from strangers. When I’ve been in need, all but a few of the strangers that I’ve met have been willing to help, […]
Sleep. Glorious Sleep.
We’ve talked in the past about the challenges of a family of four sleeping in an RV and early mornings with Wilson, and it seems we’re finally adapting after six months in the trailer. Mark and I have mentioned to each other several times recently how amazing the sleep is that we’ve been getting on […]
Campground Scavenger Hunt
My friends sent me an awesome care package a while back. Some of the items they sent I have saved for when we really needed them. One afternoon in Olympic National Park Wilson refused to nap. Jane was cranky. We had exhausted most of what the park had to offer that was within our abilities. I […]
Oregon Rail Heritage Center
As most boys do, Wilson loves trains. So when we were in Portland we had to take a (free) trip to the Oregon Rail Heritage Center. It was hot. 101 and radiating off the black asphalt. This is an open air exhibit so that didn’t help much. On cooler Saturdays you can actually take a […]
Monthly Expenses for Full-Time RVing – August 2016
Before our trip, we created a monthly budget for our RV trip, and we planned to share our monthly expenses to see how much it costs to RV around America. We’ve shared our monthly expenses for March and April, May, June, and July. Below are our expenses for August. Let us bring you adventure every […]
Why It’s Important to Take My Kids Hiking
One of my main reasons for bringing my children on our year-long tour of state and national parks is to introduce them to the joys and pains of hiking and backpacking. My family took me on the occasional day hike when I was a child, though I was fourteen when I discovered hiking, more specifically, […]
