SD, WY – Jul 2022

July 31, 2022

Spent the last three weeks exploring south western South Dakota, and north eastern Wyoming.  There sure it lots of beautiful sites to explore out here in the west.  Now that I’m in Casper, I realized I could have used one additional week back in Sturgis, and one less week here.  There’s so much more to […]

ND, SD – Jul 2022

July 10, 2022

Well, another few glorious weeks gallivanting around the countryside – this time focusing on western North Dakota, and a bit of western South Dakota.  Lots of beautiful rolling hills, with a little podunk town about every 50 miles or so (or so it seems).  Definitely picturesque during this time of year, but I can only […]

ND – Jun 2022

June 21, 2022

No deer were harmed in the making of this blog!  Well, the truck was fixed ($7k later – fortunately mostly covered by insurance), and I’m back on the road.  Sadly, I had to totally skip over Sioux Falls, SD, and proceed to Fargo, ND to get back on my preplanned schedule.  I usually only drive […]

KS, NE – Jun 2022

June 2, 2022

Well, as you can see from the dash cam images above, my day kinda got ruined.  I feel bad for the deer, but it was its decision to engage in a game of chicken with me.  Sadly, neither one of us came out of it well.  More on that later.  Otherwise, I had a wonderful […]

TX, OK – May 2022

May 12, 2022

May 9th, 2022, marked my four year anniversary as a full-time travel and residing RVer.  To say the time has passed quickly would be an understatement.  The Covid pandemic has certainly put me behind my original travel schedule overall, and also accelerated my purchasing a Florida-based RV lot as a home base.  Despite it all, […]

April 29, 2022

“On the road again …”!  Wow, finally after almost two years, I’m back to my nomadic lifestyle. And wow, has it been a blast so far. Pictured above is a sampling of the sites I’ve been in since returning to the road. So far, it’s been uneventful travel and great accommodations. However, a bit of […]

Lake Wales, FL – Mar 2022

March 30, 2022

So my last full month here in sunny Florida has come to a close.  I’ve got less than two weeks left here to wrap things up, put things away, and get ready for my departure on the 12th of April.  As depicted in the picture above, fuel prices have gone through the roof.  Diesel, which […]

Lake Wales, FL – Feb 2022

February 27, 2022

When you think of Feb, you may think of Mardi Gras.  But in Florida?  Actually, Lake Wales has a long history of Mardi Gras parades.  More on that below.  Otherwise, it has been a pretty hectic month.  Lots of normal life events (doc appointments, truck oil changes, and the like) sprinkled in with plenty of […]

Lake Wales, FL – Jan 2022

January 30, 2022

This picture pretty much represents the chilly weather us Floridians have experienced through much of the latter weeks of Jan.  In fact, a once in a decade cold front is heading our way as I write this, with temps projected to dip to the upper 20’s on Sunday morning.  Brrrrr!  This is not what I […]

Lake Wales, FL – Dec 2021

December 29, 2021

The hustle and bustle of Christmas 2021 is now behind us.  Even though it was virtual, I had a wonderful time experiencing it with my daughters and grands.  The completion of one of my to do’s, and a visit from one of my cousins and her fiance rounded out the month.  Lastly, I’m not liking […]
