We move East at a good clip. Through and past Phoenix, and up the mountains on the other side as we wanted to take a route other than Interstate to our next destination. It wasn’t even a new area we were traveling – we did it last year – but...
It took driving all day, but we made it a little over half way down the Oregon coast. The mileage numbers are not impressive by any means, as we did stop for a late breakfast, an auto parts store for some tune-up items, and a few pee breaks along the...
Early Saturday morning we were packed up and were ready to roll out of Kofa to a new home. We were not really sure where that was going to be, to be honest, but time would eventually lead us somewhere. First, we had to run into town to resupply for...
The decision was made to start heading towards our sailing lessons in Santa Barbara. Before the end of the Xmas week we had already left the solitude and adventures of the Mojave and headed South towards Joshua Tree. Sure there was [yet another] government shutdown going on but we were...
Just days before Xmas – and on our one year anniversary of our first departure in the van that resulted in a fire – we left Kerri’s parents back in Grass Valley and started our way towards Santa Barbara, CA for our sailing lessons. It felt like the first time...
We decided to take our island hopping to a whole new level. This time by going to an island that can not be driven too; San Juan Island. It was somewhat of a time killing exercise as well as a National Park visit with the San Juan Island National Historic...
As it turns out, there are a lot of boats in the Puget Sound area, many of which are in need of surveys (inspection). This in turn causes the surveyors to be booked many weeks out, to our dismay. So we are trying to distract ourselves from how far the...
With my son in town for a visit, the three of us (and two dogs) piled into the van and took off for the mount – Mount Rainier to be exact. Although I have had a single day-trip into the park back in 2013, Kerri had not been to Mount...
We had the weekend and a few of the following weekdays to burn before arriving for our reservations at a RV Resort outside of Seattle. We were really just going to take it easy during these days after another run into town for supplies and laundry. It would be our...
We did not stay the entire week at the Moose lodge, opting to move mid week. We moved just a dozen miles South to visit with the Watsons again (not our first time this year) who were camped nearby. A meetup in town at the Shelburne – the oldest operating...
