James K Polk video This morning we spotted an interesting brown sign informing us that the President James K. Polk State Historic Site in Pineville, North Carolina was nearby. We made a quick decision to reroute, found parking for our rig, and headed inside to learn...
Wanting to spend a little time with friends Stan & Mary during our interlude here in the North Carolina mountains, we met them for lunch at Forager's Canteen in Dillsboro, North Carolina. Oh, yum! We'd heard good things about this place from a friend, now we're...
Once before we darkened the door of Grandfather Country Store, an historic business on US 221 at Holloway Mountain Road just off the Blue Ridge Parkway near Blowing Rock NC. That time we were in search of ice but came away enriched by a delightful conversation with...
This giant old fashioned iron sculpture graces the corner of Wall Street and Battery Park in downtown Asheville, NC. We've seen it a number of times but never stopped to learn why it's here until today after our breakfast at Early Girl Eatery and before more...
This is definitely a hidden gem. Downtown RV Park is a private RV park located on the edge of downtown Franklin, North Carolina, only about ten sites. After getting ourselves organized and out of the house we headed here for a two night stay. It was a fun time getting...
Ten days ago when we exited the Blue Ridge Parkway at Laurel Springs NC, we passed Wild Woody's Campground & Antiques. Instead of stopping we started researching and making plans. We learned that it had been featured on North Carolina Weekend. Now we're headed...
See Park Video Yesterday we traveled only 242 miles but in a northerly direction and with a gain in altitude that took us back to early Spring. The deciduous trees are bare, this morning the temperature is in the thirties, and we see robins! We're on Site A32, a...
Finally, Labor Day 2020 has come and gone so the camping season should begin winding down. Although we’ve stayed isolated at home since mid-March (with the one exception of a quick trip to Sugarcreek), for many it's been a year to foray into the world of RV travel....
It was Cherry Bounce that brought us back to Linville Falls Winery. Last time we were here we had to stop back by to get two more bottles of George Washington's favorite. This time we got to meet the founder, Jack Wiseman, and taste a white blend he is developing....
The opportunity that prompted this visit downtown Asheville was the NC Stage production of Jeeves Takes a Bow. We have been fans of the P.G. Wodehouse character since our son introduced us to the series of short stories in which his valet, Jeeves, consistently and...
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.

The warmth we anticipated when we headed to the Caribbean in mid-January didn’t really materialize but the fun we had with our dancing friends and the great crew of the Margaritaville at Sea Islander more than made up for the not so favorable weather.
Aboard Jewel of the Seas, a favorite ship of ours, we enjoyed a foray into the history and geology of Canada’s Atlantic coast while enjoying the joys of friendships, longtime and new. Now we’re looking forward to returning to the same ship for further adventures!
Thanks to the organizational skills of Mandy & Kgreat weekend of endrick, the amazing support of their team, and the sponsorship of nüCamp RV we enjoyed a great weekend of camaraderie and fun at the Northeast Rally. Gathering with fellow teardrop aficionados is always an enriching experience and this gathering in the Adirondacks was no exception.
