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 →
Continuing to follow the Lewis & Clark Trail, our Travel Day took us from Riverdale, North Dakota to Williston, North Dakota. I read out loud our new book that we bought after being at Fort Mandan last week. It is Waheenee, an Indian girl’s story told by herself to Gilbert L Wilson back in 1920s.... 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 →
Kevin had said he wanted to go to the Gateway Arch National Park. I remember it from years ago but we found out it has changed. We headed to downtown St Louis. We saw quite a few parking garages with signs saying that is where parking is for the Arch. However, our truck is long... Continue Reading →
On the way home (footnoted 1) from a 4 hour drive to our sister-in-law’s birthday party, in Missouri, we drove along Hwy 36 over the Mississippi River to the Illinois side and down south along the river. At Hamburg, right along the river, we could see where it flooded the other day when we were... Continue Reading →
We got to my uncle and aunt’s house around 9:30 a.m. for another day of adventure. They drove us in their car to downtown Dallas to The 6th Floor Museum. I had been here with my family when I was young. It is the Texas School Book Depository, where Lee Harvey Oswald shot President John... Continue Reading →
The drive to Clark County Shooting Complex, Las Vegas, Nevada was nice. There is a good campground here. Right in front of us is the shotgun range. So fun to watch. The shooting complex is only about 9 minutes from my cataract surgeon’s office and hospital. This made it easy for my follow up and... Continue Reading →
If you know us or have been reading this blog for a long time, you know Kevin and I have a homebase. We lived for many years in northern Utah. During the time we started camping back in 2020 (camping 180+ days in 16 months) we decided we wanted a change. Not only to travel... Continue Reading →
