Kevin and I drove south out of Newport, Oregon along Hwy 101. We stopped often at the beaches. While it was cold and incredibly windy, the sun was out. But we still needed to wear our winter coats. The coast is beautiful. I really like the rocks that the waves crash into. Seal Rock, OR... Continue Reading →
Oregon’s Coast At Newport
We headed to Oregon’s Pacific Ocean coast. We had reservations at Whaler’s Rest Campground which is in South Beach, just a few miles south of Newport. Check in was nice and easy; the lady was very helpful. She suggested to look at sites 58 or 59 because she knew Starlink (Footnote 1) works there. Starlink's... Continue Reading →
What Is Moochdocking? :)
At Southern Oregon RV Park, Kevin and I walked to the campground office and bought our 3rd bundle of firewood. It is nice to have a few days of good weather for a campfire. Later that afternoon Kevin started the fire so we would have coals for packets. This time we tried a new recipe... Continue Reading →
How An Entire Downtown Ended Up A National Landmark in Oregon.
We drove through Jacksonville which is about 15 miles west of Southern Oregon RV Park in Central Point, Oregon. The downtown looks really old and I wondered if the buildings were original. We think we might come back here another day. We then drove Hwy 238 about half hour north to Grants Pass. The drive... Continue Reading →
Beauty We Didn’t Know We Would See!
This day was forecasted to be sunny and 60s. Yesterday I had checked, again, Crater Lake National Park website. Still closed. Some of the park is always closed in the winter but even Rim Road was closed now due to so much snow. Sad. We had not been to Crater Lake before. I suggested we... Continue Reading →
Sharing A Week In Our Traveling Full-Time Life! :)
Washer and dryer - two of my favorite things in our 2022 Alliance Avenue 5th Wheel. Cold, down in the 30s overnight mid-April at Southern Oregon RV Park in Central Point. We didn’t feel cold inside HOWE (our 5th wheel, "Home On WhEels"). One morning we walked to the campground laundry. One of my favorite... Continue Reading →
Internet on the road
I still work while we are on this adventure, and need reliable internet. Campground WI-FI ranges from non-existent to very unreliable. When we first started, we were using cellular internet "hotspot" from our phones. This works great - if you have good cell signal. We have been surprised at how poor cell signal is in...

Rice Farm, Where Is The Top & Weed
This travel day was a short drive and we headed to a Harvest Host. (Harvest Host is an RV Camping Membership where you can stay overnight at 4395+ farms, wineries, attractions, and more. Let us know if you want a discounted referral.) When I first looked it up, Chico Rice sounded so interesting - a... Continue Reading →
Finishing Up Around Sacramento, CA
Who Is Hungry? Come And Get It! Nicolaus, CA 04/23 For dinner one evening, Kevin cooked green chili smashburgers (recipe below) on the Blackstone Griddle. Oh, it was so good! I texted pictures of him cooking to my sister and brother. My brother wondered what the green stuff was. At first I thought he was... Continue Reading →
Apple Park, Computer Museum, A Boat & Food Prices! Oh, & A RECIPE!
Before we got evacuated on March 10, we had reservations for March 26-April 16 at Morgan Hill, CA. Well, that one was also still closed due to flooding so we had to make other plans for those three weeks. Morgan Hill is close to San Jose and we thought we would have time to explore...
