Tuesday, September 16 to Thursday, September 18 Our next leg of the journey turned north to catch US 36 West. In reading about the road conditions for RVs on I-70, we felt this was the best choice for us and as we were soon to discover, it was great choice. Rockville Lake is a county-operatedContinue reading “Elkhorn RV Campground, Frankfort KY to Rockville Lake County Park, Rockville IN”

Rifrafters, WV to Elkhorn RV Campground, Frankfort KY
Saturday, September 13 – Tuesday, September 16 Our next campsite is at the Elkhorn RV Campground in Frankfort, KY.

The four-hour drive was smooth, andContinue reading “Rifrafters, WV to Elkhorn RV Campground, Frankfort KY”

Cherry Hill, DC to Shenandoah River State Park, Bentonville VA
Saturday, September 6, 2025
We spent Saturday planning the next leg of our journey. We use RV Trip Wizard for travel planning, as it offers many great features like providing RV safe routes and syncing with our truck’s GPS while traveling. However, it’s less intuitive and at times, not as up to date as Google Maps. Usually, we cross-checkContinue reading “Saturday, September 6, 2025”

We left York around 10:00amContinue reading “York, PA to College Park, DC”

March 9, 2023 Day 2 Blaze in Saddle RV Park, Tucumcari, NM
We slept soundly last night, better than the last couple of nights. Not sure why but it felt great. Today we want to visit a couple of the museums located here in Tucumcari. It’s evident from the local architecture, that the village was in its heyday during the mid 50s – 60s when Route 66Continue reading “March 9, 2023 Day 2 Blaze in Saddle RV Park, Tucumcari, NM”
March 8, 2023 Day 1 Blaze-in-Saddle RV Park, Tucumcari NM
After leaving our overnight stay at Walmart, we headed north on I-25 towards Alburquerque. The road is in good condition and the scenery starts to change from a desert landscape to wide open prairies of rolling hills, buttes, mesas, and trees. We haven’t seen so many trees since we started our trip and it’s aContinue reading “March 8, 2023 Day 1 Blaze-in-Saddle RV Park, Tucumcari NM”
March 7, 2023 Day 1 Walmart Parking Lot, Soroco, NM
Do you ever have a day when every decision you make, seems to be wrong? Today was my Bad Decision Day for 2023. We left the campgrounds in Willcox Arizona about 7:30am, driving east on I-10. During the night we heard some strange cooing noises periodically and in retrospect, we think it was the SandhillContinue reading “March 7, 2023 Day 1 Walmart Parking Lot, Soroco, NM”
March 6, 2023 Day 1 Willcox, AZ
We left Sonoran Desert RV park near Gila Bend around 10:30am, heading east on I-10. For an Interstate highway, it’s in poor shape with potholes and rough patches that make the truck and camper shake. It makes it more difficult to drive and increases stress levels. The Valterra adapter for the sewer hose was deliveredContinue reading “March 6, 2023 Day 1 Willcox, AZ”
March 5, 2023 Day 1 Sonoran Desert RV Park, Gila Bend, AZ
Travel Day! We are headed east about 7:30am PT to start our journey of a little over 2,000 miles back to Ohio. Last evening we met another couple who have an Airstream.

March 4, 2023 Day 2 Chiriaco Summit, CA
The free campgrounds are located near I-10 and we can hear some traffic from it and the gas station located nearby. It wasn’t enough to disturb our sleep and we woke up about 7:00am PT with plans to visit the adjacent General Patton Museum soon after it opens at 9:30am. The camp host here toldContinue reading “March 4, 2023 Day 2 Chiriaco Summit, CA”
