Stop 5 – Decatur City, Iowa
For our fifth RV park we spent a week in Dacatur City, Iowa. This was mostly a utility stop on our way back to Texas so Crys could begin treatment for her sciatica but we made a few memories! There wasn’t much to do in town but it was one of the more interesting small…

Stop 4 – Somerset, WI
Stop 4 was bittersweet. We saw more of the country for the first time, but most of the time I was alone as Crys and Lil were in Texas visiting family and doctors to help figure what’s going on with her back/legs. I did manage to have a good time, though! The weather was incredible…

Reflecting on Stop 3 – Wisconsin Dells, WI
If there was any doubt that this RV lifestyle was perfect for us Wisconsin Dells put an end to it. We had an incredible time despite some pretty significant challenges. The town was more than we could have imagined; so many cool shops and restaurants, water parks. I can’t believe you don’t hear more people…

Stop 3 – Wisconsin Dells, WI
We’ve successfully arrived at our 3rd stop of our RV journey in Wisconsin Dells, WI! The drive from Illinois was very smooth and uneventful, which was nice after the hiccups we encountered the last few days. Now we’re parked at site 10 at an RV park that’s surrounded by large pines near Wisconsin Dells. We…

Stop 2 – Kankakee, IL
Yesterday was a big (and stressful) day! We towed our RV for the first time! I was very relieved with how easy to pull, but you can bet your biscuit I’ll do everything I can to avoid backing it up! The day started with me over filling the black tank when flushing it. I got…

Our 2021 Cancun Trip
Earlier this year Crys and I decided that since COVID was calming down a little bit and we’d already had our vaccinations we were going to take a trip somewhere for our anniversary. We’ve been on several cruises and every time we get back we talk about wishing we had gone to an all-inclusive resort…

RV Stop 1 – The not-so-mobile RV life is coming to an end
In the beginning of April we moved out of our Super Sized house and into a 377 sqft RV. It’s a 2021 Cedar Creek 377BH and I love it. We love it! It has been all that we hoped and has improved our overall quality of life in some ways we didn’t expect, but it…

Traveling Route 66, a trip across the country
We’ve just returned from what we both consider to be our greatest vacation to date, a road trip across the country on Route 66. The experience, while not without its snags, was amazing. We got to see so much of the country we’d never seen, talked to some wonderful people and ate lots of mediocre…

Getting ready for a road trip
Our plans have changed and rather than going to the New England area for our vacation, which is coming up one week from today, we’re going to take a road trip up to the Niagara Falls/Northern New York area. We’ve been trying to keep the planning to a minimum in hopes that this will be…

Planning a road trip!
It has been quite some time since Kristen and I took a vacation together. Recently we decided that we were going to take steps towards taking a road trip somewhere early this summer. Well, this weekend we made it official and booked hotel rooms in Boston, MA. We’ve been wanting to visit the New England…
