Updates from the Road

Our next stop took us to Albuquerque, New Mexico. We stayed at the first of our casino resorts, the Route 66 Casino and RV Resort.  This was a beautiful resort with lots of amenities, gorgeous views, and of course the casino. While there, we took a ride up to Santa Fe to check out the…

Our next adventure took us to New Mexico to check out the White Sands National Park. Here is how the National Park’s website describes it, ‘Like a mirage, dazzling white sand dunes shimmer in the tucked-way Tularosa Basin in southern New Mexico. They shift and settle over the Chihuahuan Desert, covering 275 square miles—the largest…

Some of you know that I am a lifelong Dallas Cowboys fan (don’t hate).  When Jerry Jones, the owner of the Cowboys and other business leaders built a new stadium in Arlington, Texas, I quickly added a stadium tour to my bucket list.  After 15 years, I finally made it there! On the tour heard…

One of our first stops was in Vicksburg, Mississippi. Here we had a chance to visit the National Military Park. During the Civil War, ‘the Mississippi River was the single most important economic feature of the continent — the very lifeblood of America. Upon the secession of the southern states, Confederate forces closed the river…

Before we took off on our summer trip, we planned a trip to Vegas. This time we were bringing my Mom along to check out some of the great things in the Vegas area that don’t include gambling! Unfortunately, Cole had an issue with his ear and had surgery the day before we were scheduled…

Hello 2024!! We hope you had a very happy holiday season! With the holidays over, it is time to get back to traveling!! We headed out on our first trip of 2024 to a location about 60 miles south of us. Camp Margaritaville!  If you are a Jimmy Buffett fan, then you know what to…

Hot Springs was a neat spot to spend a few days. I would say that it was a cool spot, however, it was anything but. We started to hit triple digit heat in Oklahoma and the temperatures weren’t letting up. We stayed at Lake Catherine State park, which was a very nice. We had some…

We continued our journey south and headed to Oklahoma. Ed lived in this area decades ago. Our first stop was just east of Oklahoma City. The first night that we are there, I woke up to a noise that I could not immediately place. I finally realized that it was our awning flapping in the…

After Michigan, it was off to Wisconsin, where we had a great campsite with a view of the lake at the Neshonoc Lakeside Camping Resort. Of course, we went in search of cheese! I haven’t decided which is better, Vermont Cheese or Wisconsin cheese. Do you have an opinion? Next up was a night in…
