Exploring Beyond Texas: RV America Y'all!

We see a lot of RV parks that call themselves resorts with very little to show for it. Reunion Lake RV Resort in Louisiana lives up to the resort title. This is a park you need to know about. We quickly extended our stay... [Watch the Video and Read the Full Post!]

Continuing our Yellowstone adventure! It's hard to think about Yellowstone National Park without thinking about Old Faithful Geyser. We were excited to visit Old Faithful to experience it in person. But we had no idea that the Old Faithful geyser would be just a small piece of all of the amazing things there are to see in this area of the park. Do not miss exploring the Upper Geyser Basin when you visit Yellowstone National Park!... [Watch the Video and Read the Full Post]

We had not heard much about Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota before we found ourselves up in that area. When we mapped out that portion of our trip, we realized that heading toward Yellowstone National Park would take us right past Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Wow! What an incredible find! We enjoyed hiking and exploring, and found a lot of wildlife. The unique geography of the area also fascinated us. And that's just the beginning... [Watch the Video and Read the Full Post]

We love riding vintage trains, so when we were looking for things to do in South Dakota and discovered the 1880 Train, we bought tickets right away! This 2 1/2 hour roundtrip adventure takes you through the South Dakota Black Hills between Hill City and Keystone. One of the things we liked best about this train ride was the ability to build your own adventure. And bonus: this is the oldest continuously operating standard gauge excursion train in the United States!... [Read the full post]

One of the strangest, most unusual places we've ever visited. Devils Tower National Monument has been on both of our bucket lists since we saw "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" back in the 1970s. Even after having visited the park, walking all around the tower, speaking to rangers and learning more about the Tower, this is a place that is really hard to wrap our heads around. In our opinion, Devils Tower should be on every traveler's bucket list!... [Read the full post]

In 1919 Peter Norbeck, the "Father of Custer State Park", planned out what would become the infamous Needles Highway on foot and on horseback. The winding path he chose took him through forests, wilderness and rock formations estimated to be more than 2 Billion years old! He chose the path he did to maximize the stunning views of the Black Hills wilderness. And guess what? It wasn't so impossible after all... [Watch the Video and Read the Full Post]

In this video, we take you on the road with us as we pick up our new (to us) RV! As we begin our transition from living in our suburban sticks and bricks home in the Houston area to living and traveling full time in a motorhome, we wanted to make sure we had the right RV for us to call home. So step 1 in our journey to becoming full time RVers was to find the right RV, and we did! We are super excited to show y'all our new rig... [Watch the Video and See the Full Post]

When you're visiting Northern Indiana, be sure to stop in and tour the RV/MH Hall of Fame Museum in Elkhart, Indiana. (By the way, the "MH" in the name stands for "manufactured housing" not "motorhome".) The museum houses an impressive collection of classic tent campers, towable RVs and motorhomes. A walk through this building is an exploration into the history of the RV lifestyle.... [See the full post]
