  • Morgantown, WV

    We got the local tour because we were staying in town for longer than a month. We parked the RV behind a double wide meth lab and moved into the in-laws place for a week. It’s a different town when you’re not just going to the brew pub on Friday, wine and jazz on Saturday…

  • Illinois

    We drove from Memphis up through some beautiful countryside. Over a few rushing rivers until the land became flatter and flatter. We were heading for Illinois.

  • Las Vegas

    Finally out of California! If you don’t count Guatemala and Mexico, We had spent almost 6 months in California. But the state is pretty huge and the cities are very different. But now it was time to visit Nadine and Daryl and my cousin John in the city of Sin. But Laurel had to fly…

  • Meadview, Arizona

    Meadview is a tiny town near the west rim of the grand canyon. If you can imagine the town from the movie Tremors and the people from that movie. It’s exactly this. No trees taller than a cactus. On the map it looks like there’s a lot of roads, but in reality you can just…

  • Los Angeles : Round 2

    We just went down to San Diego for 2 weeks, then it was back to LA. Laurel had a conference for her work and we bounced around the area for a while. By this point we were really getting comfortable in LA. It’s a pretty nice town if you don’t have to fight the traffic.

  • San Diego, California

    San Diego is awesome. We were there for two weeks so we got a good feeling for the city. The weather is amazing, the traffic is light, the craft beer scene is world class, there are beaches, and close access to Mexico. It wasn’t a city that was high on my radar when we started…

  • Los Angeles, California

    I’m breaking up the format of these posts a little, when we were staying in one place for a couple weeks at a time it kind of made sense to have them all in one post. But since we stayed in the LA area for a while and every city is a little bit different I’m going…

  • Anaheim, California

    Anaheim is a city in Orange County California, It’s mostly known for being the home of Disneyland also known by me for being the home of 90’s rock princess Gwen Stefani and No Doubt. Like all suburbs of LA it has a chip on it’s shoulder in relation to all the other suburbs and a…

  • Guatemala

    We did not drive the RV here! But Laurel and I did both travel here to a wedding in January. So I’m including it on the website. We were invited by family friends to their wedding in Antigua Guatemala and since we thought that this was a great idea we ended up spending 11 days…

  • Road Trip back East

    SchusUntied back to VA | My new trip on Roadtrippers.com! We’re trying out Roadtrippers.com for scheduling our route back to Virginia for the summer. It’s working pretty well, I wish they would integrate searching for music festivals or concerts. We haven’t made any reservations for parks, so the dates and locations may change a little.
