Trona Pinnacles

In our final week of Baja, we changed our minds from the original plan of going to Disneyland for an adult trip to the fun-land to avoiding all that is Southern California. We have talked about revisiting Hwy 395, which we have not done together as a couple, and it...

Smells like ‘Merica

We spent our final week in Baja in nearly the exact same spot we spent our first week in Baja a month and a half ago – just South of Ensenada perched on top a rocky coast line. It was uneventful for the most part, though the weather really toyed...

Finding more to explore

When we first decided to come back to Baja, we thought we would just pay for a month or two to stay in our favorite town in Baja, in an extremely picturesque campground – Don Chano’s Campground. From there we would venture out for the weekends, and return for the...

To Blaha for Carnival

Last time through here – Loreto – I considered the town very ‘Blah’. It wasn’t small enough for my liking or big enough to have much in it. This time around my feelings have changed a lot. I’m really not sure what has changed my opinion of Loreto, but it...

Fishing for baby whales

We happily left the tacos and city-life of Guerroro Negro on Friday afternoon, after a quick trip to the laundromat, fuel station, water station, bank, and grocery store. It was a late departure for sure, but we were only planning to move 40 minutes down the road to Laguna Ojo...

A weekend in the mountains

We have been here a week already. That usually means we are on our way out. But, here we remain a full week after the wheels of the trailer came to a rest, and we have two more weeks of exactly the same in the future. Normally the itch to...

Final days in Minnesota

We left Voyageurs National Park early to drop a couple hours off our next weekend’s drive. If not, we would have had well over 8 hours of driving to get to our next week-long destination. Anyone that knows the ways of RV travel, 8 hours really means 12+ hours on...

Putting on the Michigan mitten

Heading to the Great Lakes has been a feature of this year’s planned route since the beginning. Our reasoning has been partly to bypass the mid-west, partly to get some of that ocean-feeling, even without an ocean nearby. It has been working flawlessly, and we have both been enjoying the...

Hangin’ with baby goats

It was a very long drive from the Smoky Mountains to our next destination in Elizabethtown, Kentucky.  We could have pulled it off on a single day, but when an opportunity arose to take advantage of a Harvest Host along the way, and that place was a goat farm, there...

Oh Savannah

After the scares of tornadoes and gators, we finally arrived in Savannah for our scheduled two week stay and the precipice of our journeys this year. Even though we would be here for twice as long as we normally stay in any one location, we really only had a single...
