2025 Travel Stats
There is a lot to process when we are traveling. We’re on the road for extended periods of time and visit so many places that it’s difficult for us to recall all the details when we return home. That’s one…
We like to sip our corn
We have frequently commented on how the Harvest Hosts program has enabled us to visit so many wineries, breweries and distilleries. These overnight stops eliminate any concern about getting home safely, so long as we are able to walk to…
Baseball Bats and Bourbon
Here it is late February 2026, and we are almost finished writing travel blogs for our 2025 journeys. We have one more location to share after this and updates to a few other posts so the site will not go…
Mammoth Cave- NOT!
RV travel requires rolling with the punches. During this trip, despite our best laid plans (and having the required reservations), we needed to change course when Mammoth Cave National Park closed due to the federal shutdown. We were so looking…
Paducah, Kentucky Part 2
Like many cities located along the Ohio River, Paducah has experienced serious flooding. The worst recorded flood occurred in January of 1937 when the Ohio River crested at just under 61 feet and flooded the city for over 3 weeks.…
pə-DOO-kə, Kentucky Part 1
We were both excited to visit Paducah (pə-DOO-kə). Neither of us had ever been to this part of Kentucky before and Paducah was on our travel route to a few Harvest Hosts along the Bourbon Trail. The town’s name intrigued…
Fine Art and BBQ
We love and feel enriched by all the places our RV travels have taken us. One place in particular is The Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art located in Bentonville, Arkansas. The Museum was established by Alice Walton, American billionaire…
East and West Pleasure-Way Connection Rally 2025
It is always fun to get together with people with common interests. Going to a Pleasure-Way rally is incredibly fun because we get to spend time with hundreds of people who share the same love and method of travel and…
Biggest, tallest, deepest…
Updated 1/12/2026 As we have traveled across the US and Canada we have been intrigued and amused by the many large sculptures and “world’s largest” claims, so we decided to collect them in this post. Updates from our 2025 Travels…
Fallingwater
In late September, we started on a trip that would eventually take us to the East and West Coast Pleasureway Owners meet up in Branson, Mo. We attended this same rally two years ago. As with most of our trips,…
Women’s Rights National Historical Park
This delayed post is from our Finger Lakes trip… “We hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men and women are created equal.” These words, written more than 177 years ago, still resound today. Especially now, in these seemingly…
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
This delayed post is from our Finger Lakes trip… We had stopped in Seneca Falls specifically to visit The Women’s Rights National Historical Site. Much to our surprise, we discovered that Seneca Falls is believed to have inspired the fictional…
An Early Conservationist
After visiting the Corning Glass Museum, we returned home for a few days before heading to Plymouth MA. The Kingsessing Morris Men, the team Joe dances with, were invited to a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Muddy River…
A Novel Glass Bridge!
We are visiting the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, NY for a second time. We had last visited in 2005 and much has changed in the intervening 20 years. The museum was established in 1951 as a not-for-profit to…
Happy Thanksgiving 2025!
Like many of you, we will be traveling Thanksgiving week to be with family. Also like most of you, we will be traveling in our car and not our RV. Why you ask? While our RV is insulated and has…
Erie Canal Museum
We are heading west toward Pen Yan, NY to spend some time in Keuka Lake State Park and visit a few wineries. Since our route took us close to Syracuse, we decided to visit the Erie Canal Museum and we…
Fenimore Art Museum
After touring the Baseball Hall of Fame, we travelled a short distance north along the Otsego Lake to the Fenimore Art Museum on land formerly owned by American writer, James Fenimore Cooper. The property was later purchased by Singer Manufacturing…
National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum
We stopped in Cooperstown, New York to visit the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. As much as we both enjoy baseball -Joe played through high school- we probably would not have visited Cooperstown if it hadn’t been on our…
Olana
Olana, located in Greenport, NY, was the home and estate of Fredric Edwin Church and his wife Isabel. Frederic Church is considered is one of the most famous landscape painters of the mid-19th century and Olana is a rare example…
It was our first time … but may not be our last.
Believe it or not, after 5 years of RVing we finally stayed overnight at a Cracker Barrel. Several of our favorite RVing YouTube couples have elected to stay at Cracker Barrel and appeared unscathed by the experience. We have stayed…
The Clark
By now you know that in addition to visiting National Parks and camping, we also enjoy visiting unique and interesting art installations. We travelled to The Clark Art Institute Museum specifically to see their outdoor exhibit Ground/Work2025, which Sue had…
FDR Presidential Library and Museum
We have come to enjoy and now look for opportunities to visit Presidential Libraries . In each of the libraries we’ve visited so far (LBJ, Clinton, FDR), we have come away with a deeper understanding and appreciation for the men…
Frelinghuysen Morris House and Studio
During our spring planning for this trip, with thanks to Roadtrippers, we scheduled a stop at the historic home of George Morris and Suzy Frelinghuysen in Lenox, Massachusetts. We had no knowledge of their artwork, or specific reason to visit…
Acadia: “Crown Jewel of the North Atlantic”
Acadia National Park was established in 1916 with land donated by local citizens who valued and wanted to preserve the mountains, woodlands and ocean shoreline in perpetuity. Their dedication and foresight continue to inspire and benefit all Americans to this…
Crossing the Gulf of Maine
Ahoy, all aboard! This was our first ferry crossing with an RV. We have traveled back and forth by ferry between Cape May, NJ and Lewes, DE, but only as walk-on passengers. We were headed to Acadia National Park near…
Our Final Week in Nova Scotia
After Halifax, we enjoyed a lovely visit to Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, followed by a relaxing and educational visit to Kejimkujik National Park, and finally a ferry ride to Maine. Lunenburg is a port town on the South Shore of Nova…
Serendipity… Unanticipated Discoveries
If you read our post concerning our broken windshield, The kindness of strangers…., you know that we had to make some last-minute changes to our travel schedule. We were able to extend our stay at Shubie Campground to Thursday morning…
Terrific Halifax, Nova Scotia
On our way to Hailfax, Nova Scotia we stopped by the Millbrook Cultural and Heritage Center in Truro. The Center serves as a cultural resource for the Mi’kmaw Native Peoples and houses a number of fascinating artifacts. The Mi’kmaw are…
Another Bore in Moncton
We returned to Moncton, NB to see the tidal bore for a second time. We wrote about this in a post last year recapping our trip prior to contracting Covid on PEI. You may recall that we had to cut…
Crossing New Brunswick
The drive from Quebec City, Quebec to Moncton, New Brunswick is 480 miles. We have driven more than 400 miles in a single day but we only would consider doing so if we are time constrained. Since we were not…
