As I do trip planning over the winter months one resource I like to use is YouTube videos. I am always amazed at the quality of some of the content providers who travel around the nation. As a bit of a travel nerd – I tend to take notes on some of the different thingsContinueContinue reading “Day 5 – Food and Drink in Duluth”

Day 4 – Fargo, ND to Duluth, MN
One of the cool things about RV travel is the ability to stay in different types of campsites on cross country journeys. Do you want a nice, paved, level site with full hook-ups and lots of amenities like swimming pools, hot tubs and other recreational activities? Do you want a beautiful view with lots ofContinueContinue reading “Day 4 – Fargo, ND to Duluth, MN”
Day 3 – Medora, North Dakota to Fargo, North Dakota
My trusty alarm woke me up promptly this morning at 5:50 a.m. to a brisk morning in beautiful Medora, North Dakota. Was it a dog walking outside, a squirrel in a tree, or just the sunrise coming through the camper window? Could it also be that Aurora is enjoying her time with me so muchContinueContinue reading “Day 3 – Medora, North Dakota to Fargo, North Dakota”
Day 2 – Butte, MT to Medora, ND
This morning – Alexa did not wake me up in Butte – but Aurora did. I think another dog walked by the campsite around 6 a.m. – so I was awakened this morning with a dog barking instead of the soothing sounds of Amazon Alexa. After a breakfast of a bagel, yogurt and fruit (andContinueContinue reading “Day 2 – Butte, MT to Medora, ND”
Day 1 – Richland, WA to Butte, MT

These types of RV hook-ups mean hot showers everyday and no need to really worry about RV tank levels and water usage. In contrast,ContinueContinue reading “Deception Pass State Park III”
Deception Pass State Park II
One of the real joys of camping goes back many years – having a real wood campfire outdoors. There is something relaxing about sitting around the campfire in a comfortable chair with your favorite beverage in hand relaxing with friends and family. (Our beverage of choice is a delicious Gin & Tonic). Chairs, small table,ContinueContinue reading “Deception Pass State Park II”
Deception Pass State Park I
The unofficial start to camping season in the PNW is the long Memorial Day weekend. Campgrounds are open, summer programs are getting started, and you get to see people trying out the new camping gear they got for Christmas. I am a bit compulsive on trip planning. I mark the calendar on the very firstContinueContinue reading “Deception Pass State Park I”
A Scenic Drive by the Columbia River
I have always enjoyed traveling and seeing new places. Generally, I spent the first 6 decades of my life largely moving in an expedient way from one place to another. When I was traveling for work (which happened with increasing frequency over my 35 year work career in higher education) I tended to optimize myContinueContinue reading “A Scenic Drive by the Columbia River”
Lake Chelan Trip II
Lake Chelan (Washington) Saturday morning was beautiful at Lakeshore RV Park and it was fun to spend a relaxing morning at the campsite. We like campsites with lots of trees and green grass – and Lakeshore RV park delivered both! The sites were all paved and quite long – we are 25 feet long andContinueContinue reading “Lake Chelan Trip II”
