First things first… GO UCONN! What a win over Alabama last night. Unfortunately our campsite neighbors were big Alabama fans – made for a bit of an awkward exchange this morning as we all disconnected our water and electricity this morning. LOL We woke to frost on the camper today. Did I mention we intentionallyContinue reading “Day 2: A Tale of Three Firsts”

We said we were leaving at 8:00 AM and we did (pretty much). We packed last minute toiletries, made coffee, had breakfast, fired up Kevin and pulled out of the driveway at 8:03! We had hitched up the Jeep (the toad) complete with bike rack and literally just had to start the camper and leave.Continue reading “Day 1: What Have We Done?”

Hello, again, friends! And welcome to another RV season featuring our crazy cast of characters and one clunky, jam-packed RV named Kevin (pronouns she/her/hers). We are back for the 2024 camping season with a few upgrades and an ambitious itinerary that we will surely never keep to. We didn’t have a traditional adventure last year,Continue reading “Guess Who’s Back? Back Again…”

July 9, 2022 It was supposed to be a big travel day. But then we got distracted. What should have been a ten hour trip will have taken us at least 16 hours by the time we pull into our driveway in the wee hours of Sunday morning. We aren’t very efficient, but you can’tContinue reading “All Good Things Must Come to an End… Even if You Delay Them”

July 8, 2022 After five fun filled days at the Lake Leelanau Pines Campground, it was time to pack up Kevin and head towards CT.  Packing up was fairly quick.  Having done this before, we have a system and everything has its place in the camper.  Without some kind of organization, we would never beContinue reading “Christmas in July”

July 7, 2022 Today’s adventure itinerary was set by me.  This has been my pick from the very beginning of our trip and I didn’t post about it because I didn’t actually believe it was going to happen.  When we set out for these long trips, I usually set my heart on one place thatContinue reading “Island Life”

July 6, 2022 For a midwestern state, Michigan sure has some of the nicest sand I’ve eve seen.  And we saw a LOT of it today.  And now there is a LOT of it in my camper. Like most days, today started off slowly.  Rob and I were up and at ‘em by 7:00.  IContinue reading “Sand and Water”

June 5, 2022 Some mornings it’s really hard to leave the cocoon of the camper.  It’s toasty and cozy and you can sip your coffee in your pajamas at the dining table and look outside at the gray, damp and your poor neighbors who are tent camping and probably soaked to the bone, and beContinue reading “Cherries and Cheer!”

July 4, 2022 Happy Independence Day, America! We celebrated American independence by sleeping in, eating a delicious camp breakfast of bacon, eggs, toast, fresh fruit, and the most glorious cup of coffee my Keurig mini could provide.  Admittedly, we were running on empty from two long days of travel and the most exciting day ofContinue reading “Catch Up, Change Plans, Be Happy”

Sunday, July 3, 2022 I have been very proud of myself when it comes to driving Kevin, especially when we tow the Jeep.  My first time driving solo (everyone else asleep) was on I-80 starting in a Scranton Walmart parking lot.  However, given the length of our vehicle, you would most certainly understand that thereContinue reading “Angels Above Us”
