Last evening we spread the MN and the US maps out on the table along with The Minnesota Historical Society brochure and hatched plans to head to the Mille Lacs Indian Museum and Trading Post at Onamia, Minnesota and to stay at Hobby Farm in Oak Park for the night as...
Despite the fact that we were way too tired for an adventure and just wanted to hang out inside the T@B, we didn't want to waste the opportunity to get our first taste of Duluth, Minnesota. We arrived in the rain, parked near the Aerial Lift Bridge, got to see it lift...
See Park Video You know you are in an incredible place when the photos can't even begin to tell the story. The Meyer's Beach Sea Cave Trail is one of those places. parking at the trailhead was congested with folks heading out in kayaks to explore the sea...
It's a little beach park just off of WI-13 between Washburn and Bayfield, Wisconsin. We'd passed it twice yesterday and had promised ourselves we'd stop this morning then before we'd realized it, we passed it again. We're glad we made a turnaround and came back. We...
Right on the shore of Lake Superior, Memorial Park in Washburn, Wisconsin is a city park that's just right for us to plug in and enjoy. Loved the fact that we scored a back in site with a stargazer view of the woods! From here we made the short trip to Bayside to...
Although the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore wasn't really on our radar, when we spotted it on the map the other day we quickly decided to include it in our whirlwind tour of Superior's southern shore. To get our bearings we headed to the Visitor Center in Bayfield...

What a glorious way to start the day. Sunlight crept in through the stargazer window that looked out into the woods. Hot coffee. Eggs and sausage. And a hike along a portion of the 17 mile Lake Superior Trail to visit Manabezho, Manido, and Nawahada Falls along a...
Presque Isle Campground on the western edge of Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park in Michigan is home for us tonight. When we pulled in, Scott at the ranger station made sure we understood that this is a rustic campground then refused to assign us a spot but...
As we passed Agate Falls Scenic Site, we realized it was an opportunity too good to pass up, a chance to get out of the car and stretch our legs, to hike under a trestle bridge then walk across it, to see these incredibly scenic falls close up and from high above.

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.
