the end of an era.

Posted on July 30, 2022August 24, 2022by sarah

well. after six and a half years of making memories and going on amazing adventures in our fleetwood jamboree sport rv, it was time to bid it farewell. we cleaned her all up, took down all of our personal touches, and handed her off to her new family (who happen to be friends of ours). […]

may days. twenty twenty two.

Posted on June 1, 2022June 19, 2022by sarah

here’s some stuff that happened in may. firstly, some cardinal eggs we found in one of my azalea bushes while we were hiding easter eggs finally hatched. i was able to stick my phone in and get good photos and we could sort of see them through the hall window, so it was a fun […]

life after glacier, heading east.

Posted on July 8, 2021September 28, 2021by sarah

we had a fantabulous time in glacier, but all good things much come to an end, or whatever it is they say. so, on july 5th, we began our long trip from northwest montana towards the black hills of south dakota, with a few stops along the way. first of all, in case you were […]

glacier. going-to-the-sun road.

have i mentioned it was hot in glacier while we were there? like 90s hot. and we were in the many glacier campground, with no hookups and limited generator hours. and since ruby is not allowed on the trails in glacier, we had to leave her in the camper while we were out hiking around. […]

finally! the moment we’ve all been waiting for. or, well, the week that i’ve been waiting for. GLACIER NATIONAL PARK!! when we were planning this summer road trip, the idea was to hit a lot of the places we missed during our 3+ years on the road. but, since glacier national park is pretty much […]

from MN to (WI to MN to WI to MN to) ND.

before we left the twin cities, and minnesota altogether, i was determined to squeeze in one more activity. derek had to work all day before he could make the journey to meet us in fargo, so we had quite a bit of time to kill. i settled on driving a little out of the way, […]

twin cities, partially explored.

Posted on June 18, 2021September 26, 2021by sarah

our next stop on our epic (not so)post pandemic summer road trip was the greater minneapolis-saint paul metropolis, where we had four days booked, with big plans to do lots of things. but, on our way in, some of the same brake issues from the way out of chicago resurfaced, so we would end up […]

chicago. day two.
sky high views, co-worker hot dogs, bean.

Posted on June 11, 2021September 25, 2021by sarah

our second day in chicago was another looooong one. we kicked things off with a race against the clock to make it to our scheduled time for a trip to the top of the chicago 360 tower. between driving in downtown chicago, parking in the weird spiral parking garage, getting isaac situated in an allowed […]

chicago. day one.
an old house, a museum, inside out pizza.

Posted on June 10, 2021September 25, 2021by sarah

our drive from indiana dunes to chicago wasn’t all that far, but it was pretty stressful, as most folks who have driven in chicago traffic will attest. we parked the rv in a parking lot and then piled into the car to rush over to our first activity, a scheduled tour of the robie house, […]

indiana dunes miscellany.

Posted on June 9, 2021September 25, 2021by sarah

we booked four days at indiana dunes, which may have been excessive, but worked out nicely in the end. the campground was pretty nice and actually had showers, so we timed one for our arrival and one before we departed for a few days of boondocking. our campsite was spacious and amongst a zillion ferns.
