I was awakened abruptly to the sound of the loudest thunder I have ever heard. Since our trailer was so warm, we chose to sleep with the door slightly ajar. The space I could see out revealed the most beautiful and intense sky I had ever witnessed. It was 4 am and I stood onContinue reading “Day 9, Broken Bow, NE – Pawnee City, NE”

Let’s start this out by first saying, Tyler LIED. Earlier on in this trip, we agreed we wouldn’t put in anymore 5 hour + days…yet here we are! Easy for him to say as I drove us more than 300 miles Southeast of South Dakota, from Custer to Broken Bow, NE. We were able toContinue reading “Day 8, Custer, SD – Broken Bow, NE”

Our day was relatively uneventful, much of it was spent chasing WiFi to meet the needs of Tyler’s work. Tyler and I were up early preparing the trailer and campsite for our departure, before heading down the road for him to take his morning meeting call. Once his call ended, we returned to eat breakfast,Continue reading “Day 7, Chasing WiFi”

Just as we have settled into our camp, we prepare to move along to our next site in nearby, Custer, SD. I guess that’s our new normal as we navigate through this traveling adventure, and I’m not complaining! We chose Kemps Kamp largely due to their promise of GREAT WIFI. For Tyler working remotely andContinue reading “Day 6”

Waking up in a trailer is a unique feeling that I haven’t quite gotten used to. Tyler and I were up with the daylight, before the alarm he set to awake for his workday. The tight living quarters of our travel trailer make it very easy to feel cluttered and in disarray. Anyone that knowsContinue reading “Day 5”

Today was a WOW kind of day! There just aren’t too many other words to describe it. I told Tyler, “If I had a dollar for every time I said, this is so cool!” I would be rich. So, while I did not make any financial gain off of that statement, I feel like theContinue reading “Day 4, Hill City, SD – Keystone, SD”

Nearly 15 years ago, Tyler and I set out on our first road trip together as a newly married couple. For our honeymoon, we chose to go on a water park tour of the NW which led us through Idaho and up into Canada. We hit a few water park/amusement parks along the way andContinue reading “Day 3, Ranchester, WY – Hill City, SD”

It’s been a beautiful day, even more so as we sit and enjoy a campfire outside of the confines of our pickup where we spent much of the day. I can see an owl perched in a tree and the lush greens of Connor Battlefield State Park ahead of me. I feel free. Today, weContinue reading “Day 2, Missoula, MT – Ranchester, WY”

I was up before the alarm AND Tyler this morning, and for those of you that know Tyler, know that is a tough feat. I suppose you could say the anticipation of this adventure excited me and I wanted to make sure no stones were left unturned as we readied ourselves for departure. 6:37 AMContinue reading “LET’S DO THIS”

“In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity.” – Sun Tzu Tyler text me today! He said, “send me the pic of the family by the rv. I’m building a blog site!” I immediately went into a state of panic. My type A personality couldn’t fathom him taking the lead on a blog withoutContinue reading “The Journey Begins”
