First of all, I want to start off by saying that delays in blog posts are due to intermittent and lack of quality internet access. Sorry, for those of you who check regularly. I am writing regularly, but not always able to post. Today, we woke up when Trista came to our bed, followed shortly…
15 years ago today, I married my best friend, my favorite adventurer, the Lewis to my Clark. We go together like: You are my blue sky, my wind. and my rain; to you I pledge my love undaunted.
Today was a good day driving through some amazingly beautiful country! We got up and packed up and didn’t want to leave this gorgeous campground. We made sure the step was in this time, but as we pulled up near the office to dump some trash, I handed it out the side door to John…
This morning we woke up (later than we wanted) and took some time getting packed up, including folding the laundry we finished late last night, which I think was actually earlier this morning. There was definitely some we’re-not-in-Kansas-anymore kind of wind going on while we packed. We finally got packed up and headed back to…
We finally arrived at Niagara Falls State Park – America’s oldest State park. As we drew closer, we could see mist rising between buildings! I was so excited, I could barely contain myself! We initially pulled into the wrong parking lot (that cost $10) and a very nice ranger lady came over with a map…
Came across this gem today. Looking for an appropriately sized stick of butter and salt and pepper shakers! Yum!
This morning we woke up at a reasonable time, it was so hot in our RV last night. We were boondocking at the cottage and unable to run the AC without running the generator, so we ran it to cool it down before bed and then shut it off and used fans overnight. The first…
What a great day this was! John and I were so tired that we crashed last night and slept pretty soundly through the night. Levi woke up at 730 (which should be good), but I was so tired that I just wasn’t quite ready yet. He came in and woke me by bouncing on me! …
…at our first destination! AND we made it before dark! What a day this has been! After my last entry, we stopped at a gas station to fill up and through careful coordination were able to shower 3 Carkeets, in the RV next to the pump while we filled up! That shower might have been…
Well, last night was far more eventful than we planned! The kids fell asleep as we had hoped, Levi in Trista’s bed and Trista in Levi’s. John and I continued, and I vaguely remember pulling into a gas station and then I conked out. I woke up over an hour later, somewhat disoriented from my…
Today, we woke up in a Walmart parking lot and again, Levi was thrilled to wake up surrounded by trucks! We quickly bathed the kids (they seriously needed it), had a quick bite of breakfast and hit the road. Today was mostly uneventful. Trista and I started on her homework (which she approached cheerfully and…
This morning started off with a chorus of our children singing, “Today is the day! Today is the day!” John said, “That should be the title of today’s blog entry!” Or should it? I woke up with a lengthy to do list and anxiety like you wouldn’t believe! I tried so hard to stay positive,…
