Except that we don’t stay up until midnight. At least while we’re in Savannah. It’s like we have small children we need to get home to, can’t stay out late – but in this case it’s because we’re traveling in a motor home and need to get back to Skidaway State Park so we don’t [...]

Usually we think of campgrounds as a means to an end. Not that lots of them haven’t been beautiful – we’ve enjoyed gorgeous views, hikes and amenities (we’ll make travel plans AROUND one with a great restaurant!). But the main reason we stay in them is to get somewhere, visit something. We can choose a [...]
Going Downeast – from Camden Rally to Sunset Point Campground

The boat blog’s been shaken off – and we’re on dry land again. We just attended our first Navion/View motor home ”Rally” (our type of small Winnebago) held at the Camden Hills State Park. It was so much more fun, easy and relaxed than we expected one of these things to be. We met so [...]
East Harbor State Park Campground – OH

Last night we stayed at East Harbor State Park Campground – and thought we’d never return. It was crowded and hot, and when we went for a walk to find the beach, we hightailed it back to the Navion, swatting and flailing away at bugs. We used air conditioning and kept our blinds down because, [...]
On the road again – to Maine, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island

We left Madison yesterday (Monday) a day later than we expected, but in better shape than we would have been if we’d left on Sunday! Taylor, good old cat, seemed to take being back in the Navion for our third trip with an air of resignation (after initial resistance and squirming panic). After [...]
A Tale of Two Campgrounds

I’m so far behind in blogging but don’t want to forget these two. Such different experiences, but both memorable in their own way. The first was the Minuteman Campgrounds, close to Lexington and Concord. It’s been in the same family for a long time and their love and care is evident. We’re used to [...]

I really love the campground patrol at this place. The view out the window isn’t bad either. And the sound of the surf. We really lucked out with our campsite – B47 – we’re on the Merrimack River (the name familiar to us from [...]

We went 27 days on our first trip without being away from the umbilical cord – State Parks were great, along with a couple KOAs when we needed to be close to attractions in Nashville, etc. We’ve been out 2 weeks on this second trip – same thing. We are now parked in the rear [...]

Ohio State Reformatory- Mansfield OH

“The first night’s the toughest, no doubt about it.” (Red, Shawshank Redemption) I would never spend a night in this place. Ever. Even though they offer ghost hunts – overnight “paranormal investigations”, which I might have thought would be fun, at one time. It’s just too creepy. And it’s no wonder that it’s [...]
