Our Anniversary celebration always continues with a Steak & Eggs breakfast the next morning. There's a story behind the tradition. And there's a challenge when you are on the road and in a different location every September 1st to find a restaurant that serves...
Did we actually have a choice as to what to eat for an Anniversary Dinner when it’s the first day of our first visit to Kansas City? No, not really. When we checked into the Kansas City East/Oak Grove KOA, we asked for a recommendation for BBQ. KC Baby Back Ribs was...
Without knowing just how quickly or slowly we'd progress from California to Indiana, we delayed making reservations for Labor Day Weekend until a few days ago knowing full well we'd have limited options. Fortunately we did score a stay at the West Omaha KOA near...
Today's adventure was the triggered by reading an article listing the best museum in every state. It was pretty cool that we've visited around a dozen of these gems but even cooler that we were but a few miles from Nebraska's entry, The Archway Museum at Kearney...
A couple of glasses of English Mild Ale, a Meat & Cheese Platter followed by some Famous Chicken Salad was all we needed for a most delightful afternoon repast. With an opportunity for lively conversation with Lori, we were all set. By closing time we’d also...
As we were making our way from Bailey Yard to Lexington along US-30, we were closely paralleling I-80. Then as we passed through the little town of Cozad, Nebraska we experienced one of the joys of off-interstate driving. We saw an interesting roadside historic area...
It's a dream for a Ferroequinologist (Train Enthusiast/Student of the Iron Horse). We learned about The Golden Spike Tower through Harvest Hosts and although we didn't opt for an overnight stay here we did visit one of the most exciting train locations we could...
Last night’s home was Creekside RV Park and Campground in Chappell, Nebraska. Creekside is a charming little campground immediately next to the tiny town of Chappell (CHAP-uhl) and the Union Pacific Railroad. It's a little tiny town named after Charles Henry Chappell....
After yesterday's adventures along blue highways, we overnighted at the Laramie KOA and headed out this morning along the interstate highway with no particular plans until we approached Cheyenne, Wyoming and noticed a brown sign. Next thing we knew we were parked on...
On previous trips to Wyoming we have been delighted by the sight of pronghorn antelope cavorting on the Great Plains particularly in our September trips in 1973 and in 2008. This trip we were looking and hoping to capture an image of Antilocapra Americana, one of the...
Planning a trip? Dreaming of travel? Perhaps some of our adventures could inspire yours! Over the last several years we’ve had the distinct pleasure of many cross country journeys traveling though the Lower 48 in tents and our various teardrop campers as well as an amazing Alaska adventure that did not involve a camper.
