crayola museum.
easton, pa.

Posted on February 7, 2020February 7, 2020by sarah

after two legs of the trip, we found ourselves just outside easton, pennsylvania, home of the crayola museum. this is another spot that we visited when we were very first on the road, and we were pretty excited to go back again. i took the kids, which gave derek some time to do his actual […]

Posted on October 25, 2016by sarah

as mentioned in a previous post, my mom and stepdad came down for a few days last week, to visit us before we head out west on our epic road trip. most of the first afternoon was spent settling in and showing off (parents and kids, respectively). on the second day, before the rain and […]

gettysburg national military park.

Posted on October 23, 2016January 8, 2017by sarah

on thursday, my mom and stepdad rolled into town for a quick little visit. yesterday (saturday), we all packed into the minivan like sardines and drove to gettysburg to get some civil war knowledge in our brains. so, it was really cold and really really windy. hazel had a fail proof solution. derek is mad […]

harrisburg… museum + capitol.

Posted on October 20, 2016January 8, 2017by sarah

our current campground is about 30 minutes from harrisburg, pennsylvania, which is cool for a couple of reasons. one, there are several free museums that we can visit with our science museum membership. and two, it’s the capital. so, a couple of days ago, off we went. we chose the whitaker center for arts and […]

eastern pa. so boring.

Posted on October 17, 2016January 8, 2017by sarah

after our amazing five weeks in maine, our time in eastern pennsylvania was a bit of a letdown. it started with two, back to back, 4.5 hour travel days. it doesn’t seem like much, considering we used to make the 10-11 hour drive to ny from nc a few times a year. but, with packing […]

roba pumpkin patch.

Posted on October 14, 2016January 8, 2017by sarah

now that it’s fall and holidays are coming at us, i’m finding that one of the hard parts of the road life is realizing that we won’t be able to do a lot of our family traditions. my timehop app on my phone keeps reminding me of things like patterson farms, pumpkin carving, baking and […]

Posted on October 8, 2016January 8, 2017by sarah
