Let the waiting begin
Well.... now I've done it. We cancelled many of our planned upcoming trips. The RV trip to Quartzsite in January, the rental RV trip in Spain this coming September, the Dominican Republic resort trip in May, and our RV trip on the Natchez Trace Trail next September all got chopped. However, we're still taking our Mediterranean cruise in October. This all started when our longti...
The problem with not traveling full-time is that I'm always thinking of the "next" adventure. Connie and I have already made travel plans for the next two years. This gives us something to look forward to and plan for. A several weeks ago, while I was watching some YouTube videos on cruising, Connie got online and booked us a 4-day local cruise. We had the time for a short trip, and...
A couple weeks ago, we made a 4-day trip to Navajo country in Southwest Utah, visiting Monument Valley. We took the RV out and traveled with neighbors Randy and Patty and Steve and Debbie. This trip was actually Debbie and Steve's idea. It's a place in the US that we've always wanted to visit but never took the time to do so. We stayed in the Gouldings Monument Valley RV Park for 3-...
I revised the design of our Pegs & Jokers game set. While the game is the same, the playing pieces are slightly smaller and connect together in a different manner. This makes the game pieces fit better in the provided carrying bag and prevents accidently breakage. For over 20 years, we've played a game with our camping and RV friends called "Pegs & Jokers". We've introduced this game to ma...
After leaving El Fuerte's heat and bugs we were happy to be on a beach for the next 5 days. We had a relatively short driving day with a grocery stop at Walmart before stopping for our stay at Mr. Moro Hotel and RV Park in Las Glorias Sinaloa. The next day was a relaxing day with a Margarita Party at the hotel's restaurant that evening. Mid afternoon several of our group gathered at the restaurant...
While the name of our next RV caravan tour is called "Copper Canyon", it will be a highlight. Our main destination and turnaround point will be Mazatlán. After we crossed back into the U.S. at the east Mexicali border from our Baja trip, we made a long drive bee-lining to Tucson to get ready for our next trip down the Mexico mainland. We had 2 days to resupply our groceries, get our tire fixed and...
While staying in La Paz, we had a bus trip to Todos Santos and stopped at a cafe on the way. Good drinks and food, then we continued on the trip. After a short tour of the town and spending a couple hours exploring, we headed off to have lunch at "The Green Room" on the beach with good food. Some old Boomer friends are spending their winter in La Paz and came over to our RV for a great visit. Than...
La Paz, When we bought our 2023 Leisure Travel Van (LTV) "Unity" motorhome in May 2023, we learned of a caravan heading to the tip of Baja California, Mexico. What was special about this caravan, was that it consisted only of LTV vans. I had always wanted to drive the entire length of Baja California but never made this RV trip in our big rig. While we've never preferred to pay for a caravan ...
After our 16-hour ferry crossing, which was fairly smooth considering there was a storm moving in, we checked into Arm of Gold Campground. This is the campground where we had our new Starlink mailed to. So now we have our own internet, and we had a proper full-service site! We stayed here to do all the chores, restock, and refill all the tanks to get ready for the next portion of our adventure, ex...
Picking up where I left off... Our next stop was at Dildo Run Provincial Park, Newfoundland (NL). This was a nice park, but (again) there wasn't any cell service. We drove the 20-miles each day to get cell service in the cute town of Twillingate. We stayed here for about a week. While here, we visited the Great Auk Winery, the Horny Head Lighthouse, attended the Twillingate Dinner Theater, and vis...
