It was an impromptu decision to head to Pinellas for a special dinner party tomorrow night. In the meantime we're hosting friends here in the T@B at Ft DeSoto tonight. Gary will be here for dinner shortly and Vivian will be stopping by for an after dinner visit. Both...

Road Trip
De-Winterized
Last night the temperature dipped to 29F but the forecast says the freezing weather is behind us for now. Besides that we're heading south tomorrow so this morning we set up all the water systems. The fact that we are on a full hookups site makes it even easier to put...
Freezing in Georgia
This afternoon we ventured out to get a few supplies to get us and the T@B 400 through the next several hours: antifreeze for the 400 and Graeter's Ice Cream for ourselves. Since the 400 has a a refrigerator capacity about twice that of the one in Gigi we stocked up...
Paused in Richmond Hill
Yesterday was another long day behind the wheel. We pulled into this KOA near Savannah and booked one night knowing freezing temperatures are expected tonight so we planned to travel further south. This morning we changed our minds and booked two more nights. We'll be...
The 400 in Wytheville
Somehow Wytheville, near the intersection of I-77 and I-81 has become a convenient stopping place in our travels. We're at the KOA here again as we trek south in search of warmer weather so we can de-winterize and put the 400 through her paces. Yesterday we delighted...
Breakfast at Table
It's a chilly morning in Ohio, below freezing when we first got up. It's one of those days when, while traveling with Gigi, we'd comment on how nice it could be to have an indoor kitchen. We'd prepare our breakfast in the clamshell kitchen then retreat indoors to sit...
The T@B 400 on the Road
The R&D team at nüCamp RV have charged the two of us with the responsibility of beta testing their newest T@B model, the 400. For the last three years we've been tuned in to the plans to add this model to their line. In July we were privileged to see a preview of...
Amtrak in the Rain
Tuesday morning we hugged Linus and Rachel goodbye then trekked with Greg to their local T station and on to South Station where we got hugs from him then climbed aboard the Quiet Car on the Northeast Regional. At New York Penn Station we enjoyed good food and...
Downtown Boston
With family members back into their routines and Joel on a bus home to Maine, we ventured into Boston. We noshed on New England Clam Chowder at Atlantic Fish then sought a fix for an iPhone that quits unexpectedly and got a warranty replacement! We found a cleverly...
Loew’s at the Commons
A Sunday morning adventure! At the suggestion of John, one of Greg's friends from their Boston College days, we headed into town for the 11AM screening of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them at the huge multiplex theaters across from the Boston Commons. Thus we've...
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.
Enjoy exploring, and leave us comments! We love hearing from you. And if you’d like to follow us, Subscribe by signing up at the bottom of this page.

OUR VERY
LATEST
Lincoln’s New Salem
In 1831 Abraham Lincoln, then a young adult, chose New Salem, Illinois as his home. Although at that point he didn't have any particular life ambitions, there were people in this newly established community that would offer a young Abe employment, lodging, and...
A Wisconsin Dive Bar
Today was a travel day, albeit a short one, from Rochester to New Salem, communities on either side of Springfield, Illinois. Our habit of late is to enjoy some leisure on either side of the travel. Thus we didn't plan to have anything worth blogging about. We'd...
Illinois State Museum
Wanting to get an overview of the State of Illinois, and especially more information on its native peoples, we visited the Illinois State Museum, in Springfield, Illinois, just next to the state capitol building today. We loved the fact that as part of the state's...
