Go, See, Do, Experience!
About 4 hours Travel Day drive today. As we crossed over Columbia River (Pasco, WA,) and into Oregon we remembered this entire road from travels in the past. We saw several large barges and towboats. The landscape changes from dried arid to a few green grass and some trees with great views. And then to... Continue Reading →
We didn’t have plans for today since we had done all there was listed on several places. But on Friday I was looking at the Lewis & Clark app and scrolled in on the map and saw Canoe Camp. We decided to go there today. It is back the way we came, along Hwy 12,... Continue Reading →
We said our goodbyes to Mom & Dad and Bridget & Richard. Today our Travel Day was from Missoula, MT, to Clarkston, WA. We stopped at Loves for fuel and breakfast at the adjoining Hardee’s. We knew it would be a long travel day with not a lot of towns around. We drove up the... Continue Reading →
This was one of two longer travel back to back days for us. Just around 5 1/2 hours so wasn’t bad. The road from Williston, ND, to Harve, MT, was a highway and very good condition. We had a deer jump out in front of us but thankfully Kevin kept control and the deer got... Continue Reading →
Today we slept in and then went down to I-90 and then over to Chamberlain, South Dakota for the day. It was 11:30 a.m. when we got to town and we were hungry. I looked up some places to eat in this small town (pop around 2,000) and looked up the menu to see if... Continue Reading →
Check in is at 4:00 p.m. at Corps of Engineer’s Left Tailrace Campground, Fort Thompson, South Dakota. With less than 4 hours drive on this Travel Day, we had plenty of time. The other day I decided to do grocery shopping this morning in Sioux City, IA. It worked out great! Since we will be... Continue Reading →
(Note to readers; each blog post covers about a week and is taken from parts of my travel journal.) We went north about 20 miles to Elk Point, South Dakota, for Lewis & Clark Trail. This is the Elk Sign campsite where a vote was taken for who to replace Sergeant Floyd, since he died... Continue Reading →
It rained last night. Yesterday, to prepare for Travel Day today, Kevin put away Ambient Weather station and ham radio antenna in the basement of HOWE (footnote 1). So, I said, if Ambient shows rain… it means the basement of HOWE is flooding. He got a good laugh out of that. Thankfully it wasn’t raining... Continue Reading →
Seaman Showing Us The Info, Omaha, NE 06/26 Lewis & Clark National Historic Trail in Omaha. We crossed over the Missouri River and went downtown. We got parked and went into the building. The directions said it was Region 3, 4, 5. Well, this place was an art building but the ladies nicely told us... Continue Reading →
We had plenty, with a capital P, of time. (Sometimes I laugh at myself and what I write in this travel journal!) Check in at Lake Manawa State Park campground, Council Bluffs, Iowa, wasn’t until 4:00 p.m. We were here by 1:15 p.m. So we found a place to do our grocery shopping for the... Continue Reading →
