There’s always something…

We are getting ready to hit the road again tomorrow! Picked up RoVer from the dealer last week. They were able to fix one item, troubleshoot a few others, and they ordered parts to replace/repair the dash. We figured any parts would take months to come in (since there...

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog where I’ll be sharing our adventures as we travel the US in our motorhome, RoVer! Stories will be about our life in the RV, as well as what we see and experience as we travel the country. Since I love to take pictures, I’ll be...

After our return…

On our first day back, the priority today was to unload the RV (all those dirty clothes & linens, food, etc.) and to get more keys made for the storage compartments in case the one remaining key was to break. Lowe’s couldn’t do it – no blanks that would...

Heading Home

Time to call the trip a success and head home…Mark disconnected everything for the last time this trip, flushed out the tanks, and we got everything packed up (not terribly time consuming since we’d had to pack everything up each morning anyway!). Less than an hour and we were...

Trees in Bloom

We started the day with a trip north to Front Royal, VA and a couple of ‘errand’ stops at WalMart and Lowe’s. One thing I’ve realized with the RV…when you walk out of a big box store, there’s no wondering “where did I park”…the RV is instantly visible. Think...

Skyline Drive South

Lather. Rinse. Repeat. Disconnect everything again and head on out. This morning, we headed south to the farthest entrance of Shenandoah (about 75 minutes away), to enjoy the lower 1/3 of Skyline Drive. Where Skyline Drive ends, the Blue Ridge Parkway begins. We figured we’d work our way North...

RoVer’s First National Park!

We were pleasantly surprised at how quick and easy it was to disconnect everything and get RoVer back on the road this morning. And, by mid-afternoon, Mark and I were saying that we may not want/need to tow a vehicle – we LOVED having the RV with us all...

On the road again…

Today was a tear-down/travel/set-up day! We were pretty efficient with getting everything packed away and disconnected – it all went smoothly except those darn sewer hoses are really hard to disconnect from each other. Mark had bought a tool at the camp store to help give him leverage, but...

Painters Tape and S’mores

After a grocery store run, it was time to return the rental car and take an Uber back to the campground. We decided not to venture out at all – we’re back on the road again tomorrow, and knew that we had a bunch of things to get done....

Saturday in the Park (or on the Mall)

On Saturday, we drove to the Metro station to catch a train into DC. The Smithsonian museums are all still closed due to the pandemic, but we have always loved visiting the monuments and memorials…so we walked about eight miles, starting near the Capitol, heading to the newest memorial,...
