Once upon a time we used to listen to our friend Gary expound on the probable/certain existence of Bigfoot with a healthy degree of skepticism. We'd never seen any scientific or even tangible evidence of the existence of a large hairy hominid nor known anyone who had...
Back when Dinah Shore, on behalf of General Motors implored Americans, to "See the USA in your Chevrolet" Steve's parents purchased a 1956 Chevy Belair and packed up the family for a great cross country trip that included a drive to the top of Pikes Peak. Today Steve...
One of our recent technical challenges has been dealing with "storage full" messages on Karen's iPhone 6S. The technician at City Mac in Traverse City identified the inordinate amount of data used by the Notes app and suggested deleted some of the 700 notes. Sounded...
Our plan for this morning was to visit Garden of the Gods, it seems to be one of Must Do places in Colorado but we no more than entered the area and saw the crowds climbing on the rocks before we were ready to turn around and get out of there. Instead we visited the...
Knowing we wanted to check out some of the sights in the Colorado Springs area, we picked the Cripple Creek KOA to serve as our base. Looks like we chose well. Located just outside of the historic gold mining towns of Victor and Cripple Creek, this campground is...
Last night as we were lying in bed we looked at the All Stays app to see what the possibilities were for a campground more or less a hundred miles west of Dodge City. The US-400 corridor isn’t exactly crowded with campgrounds and we were rather hoping to make it into...
We traveled today from Steamboat Springs to Fort Collins along US-40 and CO-14, the Cache la Poudre Scenic Byway. Oh! The scenery! It's unbelievable. We traveled north of Rocky Mountain National Park but the scenery was every bit as beautiful! But now in Fort Collins...
We enjoyed a leisurely morning in camp listening to the rushing of the Yampa River next to our site before going into the town of Steamboat Springs for lunch, a bit of geocaching, and a little shopping. We finished our day in a most relaxing manner by soaking in the...
Forty-one years ago when we were tent camping across the country on our honeymoon The Carpenters' hit On Top of the World was high on the charts and being played frequently on FM stations across the country. It was a bit of an anthem for us. Today as we were traveling...
The docent at the visitor center in Meeker told us about the Flat Tops Trail Scenic Byway. It's shown as a major road on the official Colorado highway map but to call this mostly gravel road between Meeker and Yampa a highway would be a stretch. It is a nice wide...
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.

It’s been a gentle start to our London visit. We’ve taken it easy for a few days and concentrated on enjoying Hampstead.
On our transition day from the cruising segment of this summer’s adventures to an England visit based in Hampstead in London we savored the comforts of a Blue Eurostar journey through The Chunnel.
The tour guide for the Old Town Waling Tour in Kristiansand regaled us with tales of the history of Norway in general and Kristiansand in particular.
