Our 11th month on the road actually takes us off the road for a while. We won't be traveling like we have the last year. Instead, we'll be staying in one place and using that as a homebase to explore the beautiful state of Michigan.

KOA campgrounds are everywhere. They are typically easy to book and access as you travel. But, is it worth it?
We imagine downsizing into a 5th wheel to be simplifying life, but in some many ways it is anything but simple. Even something as seemingly simple as registering your camper can be anything but. Throw in a truck that is typically considered a commercial vehicle to tow that camper and you've got double the headache. And, what about that second car?
Although month 10 involved very little actual travel, it was one of the was busiest and stressful months we've had since we hit the road. Between trying to register a car, dealing with a cracked rim on the rig, and a leak in our black tank. It felt like there issues would never end.

Month 9 took us to 5 campgrounds in 3 states. It also brought us tornado warnings, a new toilet, and our first flat tire.
Poche's RV Park offers long RV sites surrounded by fishing lakes in an area that feels remote, yet is just minutes from Lafayette, LA.
Eight months on the road fulltime, where has the time gone? Time flies by way too fast. But, this last month has been rather eventful. We stayed at four RV Parks, “enjoyed” the Texas Snowpacolypse and even took an RV Maintenance course. And, somehow we spent more on groceries this month than any month prior (still not sure how that happened). We also had...
One of the great advantages we saw with full-time RV travel was the ability to stay where the weather was comfortable. What we've found is that it's easier said than done. In the last year we've experienced more cold and snow in our RV than in multiple years in our sticks & bricks.
At the base of Scott's Bluff National Monument lies Robidoux RV Park, a quaint little city-owned RV campground with everything we needed for a short stay to visit the monument and more.
