Hall County Park to Huntington, West Virginia
Saturday, July 25, 2020 I woke to the sounds of a quail calling. What a wonderful sound that is rarely heard today. Then a flight of geese flew over calling. I didn’t have much time, but I wanted to go for a walk and see what this park is all about. It is a county…

Drive From Casper, Wyoming to Hall County Park in Grand Island, Nebraska
Friday, July 24, 2020 I left the gravel, Casper KOA at 9:00, late for me, got on I25 south, later turning east on Rt. 26 for Fort Laramie and zig-zagged to I80. I have heard people complain about Nebraska being a boring drive, but I think it is very pretty with the beautiful Platte River,…

On to Canada
Saturday, July 13, 2019 It cooled off in the night, so I got a good night’s sleep. Anxious to get on the road, I made coffee, ate some cereal, hooked up and set the GPS for Laurie Provincial Park near Halifax, a nine-hour drive. Well, it couldn’t find Laurie, so I set it for Halifax.…

Heading Home
October 10, 2018 With heavy rains predicted for the next three days, we decided to head back home, cutting the trip just a day short. There has been a lot of rain on this trip, and it has been difficult to keep humidity to a reasonable level inside the trailer. We bought a small dehumidifier…

Kearnie, Nebraska to Columbia, Missouri
Friday, November 3, 2014 We got off to a late start after I added DEF (diesel exhaust fluid, keeps the exhaust from smoking) to the truck, and put air in a couple of tires. Back on I80, we drove through Lincoln. Outside Omaha City we dropped down to I70 via I29, which is also a pretty drive. By…

Rawlins, Wy to Kearney RV Park, Nebraska
Thursday, November 2, 2017 People ask why I post several days at a time. Most of the time it is due to inadequate WIFI, so when I get to a good one, I can catch up. That might be a campground, a coffee shop or library. We were happy to wake up to winds that…

Wendover, Nevada to Super 8, Rawlins, WY
Wednesday, November 1, 2017 If yesterday’s drive through the high sage plains, today was totally different. We were immediately on the Bonneville Salt Flats, with only a break when we crossed a big mountain range. On the other side was the Great Salt Lake. We passed the Morton’s Salt plant with their lady with the…

Driving Across America on I-70 and I-80
Monday, July 10 – 14, 2017 Leaving Columbus, Ohio in the early morning rain, it was a bit hectic making the right turns in heavier traffic than I expected at 6:30. Once I got on I70, things settled out. Ohio and Indiana are beautiful country. Just turn the music on, set cruise control and relax.…
