during my preliminary research into things to do near this campground, the edaville usa railroad popped up. i added it as a favorite and moved on. later, as derek did his own research, he dug a little further and discovered that inside the park, there is a thomas land, with all thomas the train themed […]

boston, day two.
after our luxurious night in our fancy pants hotel and a delicious continental breakfast, we got started on our second day of our boston adventures. first up, we walked to the boston tea party museum, which was only about 3 minutes from our hotel. but first, i took a detour to take pics of the […]
boston, day one.
last weekend, we had our biggest adventure so far, two days in boston. derek worked hard to create a two day long itinerary of educational adventures for the five of us. so, we woke up early friday and drove to beantown. we dropped the car off at the hotel, had some breakfast, and called an […]
watkins glen (everything but the gorge).
we finally pulled into our campsite at watkins glen state park around 7pm, so an executive decision was made to go straight to dinner. another executive decision was made to make it mexican. after dinner, we took a quick drive down to the water, to see the last bit of daylight disappear over seneca lake.

cuyahoga valley national park
yesterday, father’s day, we hit up our first national park on the lidbom rambling road show. we are only about an hour from cuyahoga valley national park, so after a big fat breakfast, we loaded up our bikes and the kids and snacks to check it out. a couple of family pics before our adventure… […]
ohio. week 1.
at first glance, we thought our trip to ohio would be sort of boring. our site seemed to be in the middle of nowhere. we were mostly just trying to get a few free weeks in our network of rv parks that we are members of (thousand trails). anyhow, on our first day, we did […]
letchworth. week 2.
our second week at letchworth was a little more low-key than the first. after all of the weekend campers cleared out, we took over the bathroom to get this grubby kid all cleaned up. since the showers only blast scalding hot water, we opted for the sink. we went to warsaw, to laurie’s diner or […]

may 17th.
well. we are in batavia now. and i’ll post a generic post about that soon. but first. allow me to post about may 17th. it began, with a little drive to medina, to visit a toy train museum. which is apparently owned by the one and only “fireman marty”, a local fireman, who used to […]
queen city getaway before the getaway.
so. our camper wasn’t going to be ready friday. we were staying at derek’s mom’s house. they weren’t even there. we only had a couple of clothes changes with us. the situation was getting old. so, derek bought some points from his dad and booked us a fancy pants hotel in uptown charlotte for the […]
