I was glad the heavy rain we drove through had cleared up by the time we arrived at Buccaneer State Park. So far (knock on wood), we have not had to hitch up or unhitch in bad weather. We stayed two nights at the park in Waveland, MS, so we Read more…
We enjoyed our week in New Orleans at the Xscapers Halloween Convergence event, boondocking in the large Shrine on Airline parking lot with around 30 other people / 15 RVs.

Getting to Kentwood on October 12th for my nephew’s wedding on the 14th has been our goal since leaving Colorado. And we made finally made it! It was nice to be invited to the rehearsal dinner, even though we weren’t in the wedding, especially since the food was so yummy! Read more…

We boondocked a couple of nights at the Sunset Reef Campground, which was convenient to both Carlsbad Caverns National Park and Guadalupe Mountains National Park. Unfortunately, it started storming shortly after we got to Guadalupe, so we didn’t end up going on a hike as planned. We only had time Read more…
