Today was a FOUR state day, but the East coast states are more compact and it seemed that we blinked and were in the next state down. We woke up in Maine. Our preparation the evening before made for a smooth morning, aside from some technical difficulties with Tyler’s remote program. Fortunately, us waking upContinue reading “Day 19, Biddeford, ME – Guilford, CT”

Tonight, we lay our heads down to rest in a little campsite in Biddeford, ME, but today was all about Portland, ME.

We were out of our Harvest Host site by 6:40 am and on the road.Continue reading “Day 18, Meredith, NH – Biddeford, ME”

I’ve always said, if I could live every day like a specific day of the week, it would be Sunday and today did not disappoint. It was a beautiful day of travels. We didn’t really do anything noteable, but there was just something about the day that was relaxing and refreshing, something we needed afterContinue reading “Day 17, Gurn Spring, NY – Meredith, NH”

With a bit more rest last night, we got a later start this morning! We knew we needed to get to Niagra Falls early.

We left Lockport,Continue reading “Day 16, Lockport, NY – Gurn Spring, NY”

Jerry and Rhonda kept us up into the wee hours of morning talking stocks which left us all quite tired this morning!

Ashton (AKA Jerry) asked a million questions and was even makingContinue reading “Day 15, Hartville, OH – Lockport, NY”

As we walked towards the second Travel Center for the day, Tyler exclaimed, “our trailer is so cool!” He went on to say there was no way we would have ever made this trek had we rented a trailer. He was right, and it validated me and my decision to push for buying vs. renting.Continue reading “Day 14, South Bend, IN – Hartville, OH”

It’s been a day…a long and tiring day, but another good one nonetheless! We were up and at em relatively early in our campsite. We were pleasantly surprised that we didn’t float away overnight with the amount of rain that poured down and when we awoke, the large puddles in our campsite were gone. WeContinue reading “Day 13, Lannon, WI – South Bend, IN”

For starters, our kids are FUNNY! Since visiting Warren Buffett’s residence, they have been bound and determined to become stockbrokers. Maybe this isn’t where I mention their dad has been doing that for years. Sharing stories about Mr. Buffett and his lifetime of success ignited a spark in them. He is now referred to as,Continue reading “Day 12, Marion, IA – Lannon, WI”

Today, I was commended for the terrific driving I’ve been doing and my family gifted me… MORE MILES! While we only traveled a little more than 200 miles today, the list of states we will visit continues to grow! We packed up from our little campsite in Adair, IA, and headed East towards Des Moines.Continue reading “Day 11, Adair, IA – Marion, IA”

Today was a scorcher and we spent much of it yoyoing between Nebraska and Iowa. We left Pawnee City this morning after gathering ourselves up from the Harvest Host location and leisurely made our way towards Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium.
