What a great day. I spent this morning trying to get my pictures and blog to download while Brett and Joanie started their workout regiment. I don’t know what their legs feel like but my fingers feel like putty. Since we all worked so hard we took in a great breakfast at Biscuit Head, aContinue reading “Asheville and The Biltmore”

After picking up Brett we drove south on our way to the Carolinas and found an awesome RV Park in Floyd, VA. Our wonderful “find”, Chantilly Farm Campground and RV Park, provided all of those things you look for when out on the open road. That is if you are looking for an open airContinue reading “Virginia is For Lovers”

Today we have been sitting in Little Al all day as slow Sally makes her way across us heading north. She was slow to get here but now that she’s here we can’t get her to leave. We decided this morning to extend our stay one more night with Pocahontas because of the wet weather.Continue reading “All Rain All Day”

Some of the things Joanie and I have decided after over 45 days of living on the road is that the 3 most important items that matter the most when picking a spot to set up…location, location and location. By that I mean; location close to what we want to see or do, location thatContinue reading “On To Virginia”

Unfortunately, most of the distilleries were closed for tours or tastings on our drive. They were kind enough to keep the retail shops open for us, and it seems they raised their prices to offset the loss of $$ from the tours…nice gesture but no thank you. We were able to get a tour andContinue reading “The Bourbon Trail”

One last short 5+ mile hike at Mammoth Cave National Park then back to the campground to take it easy for the day. Just like most of our hikes, we plan for one thing and get another…this one was billed as a short 3 mile hike. Either way we got what we wanted, not tooContinue reading “On To Frankfort”

Ever since we were unable to go into Jewel Cave in South Dakota, Joanie has had on her list visiting Mammoth Cave in Kentucky. I mean what other way do you get over not being able to go into the worlds third longest cave system, you set you sites higher and actually step into theContinue reading “Mammoth Cave”

With a destination of Mammoth Cave National Park (stamp time for Joanie), we took a casual 3 hour drive East through Nashville then due north. Since it was our off day on quads and our on day for muffin tops, we decided to stop along the way and complete a full cycle; Joanie took downContinue reading “Harvest Host”

Taking a nice hike today on the Cub Creek Trail in the Natchez Trace State Park, I found that it is certainly not CO, or MT, or SD, or NM…but it is Tennessee. Probably more like Texas than any of the others, pretty flat but marshy in a lot of areas. I think there wereContinue reading “It’s Tennessee”
