Two full weeks on the road and we are still McGyvering the RV to suit us. You have to get creative when traveling by RV. I'm still trying to figure out how to get a satisfying shower. One of the 1st things we did when we got the rig was change out the very weak... Continue Reading →
Day 13: Goodbye Tiny Donkey
Even after entering a new time zone yesterday, we still woke up at 7am (4am CA time) We didn't have a sewer hookup at our site so we had to pack up and stop at the dump site on our way out. It was easy to find: I bet there are a lot of folks... Continue Reading →
Day 12: Attack of the White Castle
We have been doing pretty good to get up early-ish even though we keep changing time zones and losing an hour every few days. This morning we were in Central Time (+2 from CA time) and still got up at 7:45am, without an alarm clock. It is much easier for Fred to get up early.... Continue Reading →
Day 11: Pancake Breakfast
What makes a husband extra incredible? When he makes you pancakes! Delicious blueberry & banana pancakes and coffee. It's our 1st time making any real breakfasts foods. So far it's just been microwave oatmeal or English muffins. This came out perfect. We have been getting better and faster at pulling up camp. We hit the... Continue Reading →
Day 10:Pulling out of Dodge City.
Dodge City really is a cool place. It's so full of history and cowboys! There still are real cowboys. That makes me happy. We could spend a whole week here exploring all the neat places but we have picked up our pace a bit to get to the Cape Cod and make up a little... Continue Reading →

Last night we pulled in late to our destination campsite, Lake Pueblo State Park. The park is pretty and a great spot for fishing but the sites only provide electricity, not water or sewer. After cleaning up before bed last night, breakfast dishes in the morning, bathroom visits, and brushing our teeth, our fresh water... Continue Reading →
Day 8: 4/11/19 Making a break for it
We got up early because Fred was hoping to leave Fruita today. The weather was cold but sunny. We were all packed up and on the road by 10. Fred was confident the blizzard had pushed far enough into the northeast to allow us safe travel over the mountain passes between us and Pueblo, Colorado... Continue Reading →
Day 7: One week on the road
This will be our 7th day on the road and our 3rd night in Fruita, CO. The park turned off the water today to prevent their water lines from freezing during this rough weather so we filled our fresh water tank before we left to go exploring today. They don't plan on turning the water... Continue Reading →
Day 6: Rethinking our route. We’er still here.
So we awoke yesterday morning (Tue 4/9/19) and turned on the weather channel to see what the day would bring us. We were surprised to learn of a big storm headed our way. We had been planning to pack up and continue northeast to Fort Collins, Colorado to visit Fred's cousin Pam. But driving to... Continue Reading →
Tour the RV
We had a request for a tour of our RV. Sorry David it took so long to get this up. Waiting out this storm in Fruita has finally given us some time to sit and catch up a bit. We have a class A, Winnebago Sunstar LX 30T, so she is 30 feet long with... Continue Reading →
