Meet Nina & Paul After spending a few years living in Asia in high powered and stressful jobs, Nina and Paul decided they needed a drastic change in their lives. They returned to the US, bought an RV, hit the road and never looked back. That was 2010, and they’re still loving the lifestyle. We caught […]
So.. what’s up with the Hula Hoop?
We hope that wherever you find yourself this Memorial Day weekend, you are surrounded by whatever inspires you – nature, friends, family, good times, wine, solitude. We’re still hanging out in Elkhart with folks still lingering post-Escapade, and took care of some medical errands this past week. It’s been a blast being here, and seems […]
Reflections on the Escapade
On a rather last minute whim, when we left Mitch’s castle we decided to head east instead of west – towards Goshen, IN and the 54th Annual Escapade, the annual rally of the Escapees RV Club. After attending the big FMCA rally down in Perry earlier this year, we had been told to expect quite […]

A Wonderful Time in St. Louis
Chris has family in St. Louis. And over the years of us stopping in, I’ve just fallen in love with the city. This particular trip back had some goals: Spend time with Chris’ grandma, who had taken quite a spill earlier this year. She’s doing great! Move some boxes from our bus bay that we’ve […]

An Unexpected Brake-Down
Our last travelogue post ended on a bit of a cliffhanger. We started the morning off in Hohenwald, TN driving south on the beautiful Natchez Trace for a few miles, and we then headed westward on Highway 64 towards Memphis to rendezvous with our dear friends Kristin & Jason, who we hadn’t seen since our […]
