On our very first visit to Minnesota we stayed at here at Forestville/Mystery Cave State Park but only as an overnight stay since we'd promised to be somewhere. This time we're on Site #18 and we've deliberately allowed time to explore the park. Just a short distance...
This morning we're in a growing rainstorm as we depart Goose Island Campground. We awakened to misty rain and a misty view of the Great River. In addition we still had a few of the mosquitoes from our midnight battle with the blood suckers. It's been a good morning to...
Goose Island, it's a LaCrosse County Park that we found on the AllStays Camp & RV app. We gambled that we could arrive without a reservation on this Thursday afternoon in August and get a campsite and it paid off! We got #170, an electric only site right on the...
Visiting the statue of the French explorer Jean Nicolet required a U-turn as we were heading south along WI-57 north of Green Bay, Wisconsin. It gave us a chance to learn just a little bit about the history of this peninsula and even more than last evening's adventure...
It's our first foray into Door County, Wisconsin. We secured a campsite at Bayshore County Park in Brown County, just a little south of the Door County line. One nice thing about this park is that half the sites are First Come so you can stand a good chance of getting...
Apparently even native Michiganders have trouble problem the name of this Big Spring near Manistique on Michigan's UP. But whether or not you can pronounce Kitch-iti-kipi, it's a place you should visit. It's a State Park that interprets the natural features of this...
Yesterday's route took us along the shore of Lake Michigan through Charlevoix, past the former World's Largest Cherry Pie Pan, Petoskey, and Mackinaw City, across the Mighty Mac, and then west on US-2, the Lake Michigan Scenic Highway almost to Naubinway. We then...
This morning as we ate breakfast, we pulled out the Canada map we acquired yesterday at AAA and began to figure out where we could go over the next couple of months. Do we want to venture into Canada now and head west through the provinces? We'd already begun to...
Who could resist an opportunity to enjoy ice cream prepared on site within sight of the dairy cows that produce the raw materials for this delicious frozen confection? Not us! Sally proposed a trip to Moomer's and we said "Yes!" We recall having tasted this great ice...
It's always great fun to have a local guide who can take you to their favorite spots but it's also fun when they are willing to try out a new place with you. Today at lunchtime we and Sally did just that. We headed to North Peak Brewery. When we saw the sign for...
Planning a trip? Dreaming of travel? Perhaps some of our adventures could inspire yours! Over the last several years we’ve had the distinct pleasure of many cross country journeys traveling though the Lower 48 in tents and our various teardrop campers as well as an amazing Alaska adventure that did not involve a camper.
