After Carlsbad, we headed back north the see what other historical sites was could find along Route 66. Our next stop was the Route 66 Casino and RV Resort, in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I was looking forward to this stop because Momma likes to hit the casinos just to see how long I can make…
Updates from the Road
Carlsbad Caverns – Wow!
After Amarillo, we headed to southern New Mexico to the Carlsbad area. Here I was able to check out the Carlsbad Cavern National Park. When you go to this park, you have two choices to get to the ‘Big Room’ which is the main area of the cavern. You can take an elevator, or you…
Amarillo By Morning
We had a lot of fun hanging out in Amarillo. We stayed at the Big Texan RV Ranch. The place was very nice and the staff was super friendly. The place definitely has an old western feel to it. This park is just off of I-40, which of course replaced Route 66 as the cross country…
It Is Going To Be A Summer of Firsts!
We have been having lots of fun watching Cole show Maverik the ropes on the road. Maverik has experienced several firsts already. We spent our first couple of nights in the panhandle of Florida. Here Maverik saw his first goat and we met a turtle one evening on our walk. Neither Cole nor Maverik knew…
Meet Our New Addition!
Before we get started on our summer adventure, we want to introduce you to our newest family member! Meet Maverik! We adopted Maverik in October. He was 14 weeks old and so small! He has been with us on a few camping trips and he is loving the adventure. Cole is trying to be a…

Fun in Frankenmuth
We had the opportunity to spend a few days in Frankenmuth, Michigan. This was my first time here, so of course we had to do what everybody does – eat a chicken dinner. We chose Zehnder’s over the Bavarian inn. The meal was very good although if I’m being honest the chicken was probably a…
An Ark In Kentucky – Who Knew?
On our way up to Michigan, we stopped in Georgetown, Kentucky for a few nights. Just a little ways up the road, we had an opportunity to check out something really cool. The Ark Encounter. https://arkencounter.com/ . This is a very interesting look back into ancient history, specifically back to the book of Genesis in…
Hello Summer of 2025
It has already been a busy 2025 for us. We closed on our new house in early March. We spent most of March and April busy with contractors putting the finishing touches on the place. Then it was time to start cleaning up Dash and getting him ready for our summer adventure, as well as,…
