Sugarcreek called us back again. Turns out our 400 needed one more tweak. We're camped tonight in one of the nüCamp courtesy sites. Tomorrow we'll turn our baby over to Marvin for a battery change out then we'll be on our way. For now though it's glorious to watch the...
It's gotten to be a bit routine. We make the reservation via the KOA app. When we arrive Kayla greets us like old friends. We get the 400 situated then walk over to the Family Fun Center and order our pizza. Fifteen minutes later dinner arrives at our doorstep. After...
Our next adventure began a couple of hours ago when we left home after dark to head to the Greenville SC Amtrak Station and The Crescent scheduled to depart at 10:58PM. With some time to spare we checked Yelp! and chose Soby's in downtown for dinner. Good call! Our...
A second evening in Bloomington! A second rendezvous at Fountain Square Mall. This time a chance to photograph a fun yarn bomb and the opportunity to dine at Farm Bloomington. Creativity, quality, and local products are hallmarks of this independent eatery. We started...
Our home for the evening was on the shore of Lake Carlyle in a Army Corps of Engineers campground with the most unoriginal name of Dam West. It was a pleasant place to pause for the night or to linger for several days. And it was a beautiful place from which to view...
This is a perfect example of the cool spots we find while geocaching. The World's Largest Rocker was a Guinness record holder from 2008 to 2016! It sits along Route 66 near the Fanning Feed Store which just recently closed for good but which sports a delightful...
Today we completed our 48th state visit in our T@B since July 2013! Our rule is that at a minimum we must stay overnight and do something fun while in the state. Last night we stayed near Lebanon MO and today we visited the Stonehenge at Rolla, a half-scale replica of...
After a lovely morning with friends in Arkansas we ventured north into Missouri. We paused for an overnight at Happy Trails RV Park, a dinner at Elm Street Eatery, and a geocache at the public library in Lebanon, Missouri. Although our route of travel is primarily...
In a side room of Corona Restaurant in Rogers, Arkansas on certain Friday nights Kristi hosts a Piano Bar. It's a gathering of friends, an opportunity to enjoy music, food, and drink, and to participate. She invited a number of the audience up on stage to sing and...
It's the annual Bella Vista craft fair extravaganza weekend and we have Sharon and Mike as our personal guides. First stop was the annual Methodist Men Pancake Day. What a fun community event. Excellent pancakes and accompaniments served with a sense of fun. We made a...
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.

As we left the Minneapolis-St Paul area we deliberately avoided the urban section of the Great River Road and instead skirted the Twin Cities to the south and east to Hastings where we picked up the scenic road again. As the road meandered along the west bank of the...
Today’s adventure yielded so much more than we ever expected even from a Minnesota Historical Society site. The human history at what became Fort Snelling here at the confluence of the Minnesota and the Mississippi Rivers began at least 10,000 years ago according to...
Despite misgivings about venturing into the traffic of a metropolitan area, we headed into the heart of Minneapolis, Minnesota. After finding a garage parking site (We love the ParkMobile app) and breakfasting at the nearby Farmers Kitchen + Bar, we walked the short...
