Pennsylvania
Pocono Indian Museum

Courtyard Winery

Franklin
Our destination today was the historic marker on the banks of French Creek where John Chapman/Johnny Appleseed lived and worked more than two hundred years ago. We parked, walked to the marker, took pictures, and discovered that this was the site of the 1787 Fort...
The Pioneer Tunnel Coal Mine
Besides being a trip back to the turn of the last century this was a trip deep underground. Actually we did not travel down but rather straight into the side of a mountain at The Pioneer Tunnel Coal Mine in Ashland PA. Guided by the Mine Foreman, Brad, we learned a...

The Joys of KOA
Our home tonight is the Mercer/Grove City KOA in western Pennsylvania chosen for its proximity to tomorrow's adventure, the promise of decent laundry facilities, and the ease of making a reservation through the KOA app. Yes, we love public campgrounds, they are often...
Delaware Water Gap

Dingman’s Campground
It's Labor Day, the last day of the last weekend of summer. Tomorrow the kids will all be back to school and parents back to work. All along the highway today we spied RVs apparently heading home. Here at Dingman's Campground Site 64 there's no one around. The site...

OUR VERY
LATEST
Rally in the Adirondacks
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.
Cuyahoga Valley National Park
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
Slow Journey Home
Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
