for our first day in maine, we decided to head back to the beach. it’s only about a mile and a half away, so we thought we would attempt riding our bikes over. the ride was pretty smooth, except for a small stretch on a heavily trafficked road. the kids aren’t used to riding in […]

we love maine! (arrival day).
we are finally in maine!! i have been looking forward to this part of the trip for soooo long. it’s the first state on the lidbom rambling road show that i haven’t already been to in my life, and so far, i’m in love. we got set up and then immediately made our way to […]
cape cod friend reunion.
i’ve said it before, but one of the bonuses to this lifestyle is being able to meet up with old friends who i might otherwise never get to see again ever. on friday, we hooked up with one such person. my friend cathy, from my college days, now resides in cape cod, where her husband […]
cape cod national seashore.
we couldn’t very well stay at a place called “gateway to cape cod” without going out to cape cod, now could we. so, on one particularly nice day, after we had recovered from our busy weekend, we took off for the cape cod national seashore. the drive was a little long for us. it should […]
ned’s point lighthouse adventure.
our first big adventure at this campground was taking off to explore some beaches and coastline. we chose a lighthouse as our first destination, with the possible backup plan of going swimming. ned’s point lighthouse wasn’t too far away, so we packed up for a quick viewing. i don’t think the kids really knew what […]
bigelow hollow state park
our second week at sturbridge was a busy one. we only had one down/lazy day. i am not blogging these in order, mostly due to our terrible internet and i’m waiting to get some pictures from derek’s phone and it’s taking a million cyber light years. so, i’ll begin with a trip we took on […]
the third and final week in accord. thankfully.
our third week in accord (and our last week in new york state) started off with car trouble, as mentioned in the previous post. so, we were stuck to the campground, while derek handled overseeing the repair of our trusty steed. on sunday, since we had a late start getting to the pool, all of […]
accord new york, week two.
i didn’t think it was possible, but our second week in accord was even more lazy than our first. we kicked if off by heading back to the pool. i don’t remember why hazel was sad. probably because i told her to stop running. sunbathers. the kids have been spending a lot of time at […]
suny tech reunion at lake taghkanic.
one of the best parts about road life is being able to connect with old friends who are scattered around the country. that happened last sunday when i was able to meet up with three friends from my college days at suny tech. to be exact, it was an old soccer and softball teammate and […]
accord new york, week one.
we have been extra lazy at our new spot. we are here for three weeks. it’s a nice campground. the kids are tired of having daily epic adventures. there’s not a TON to do in the immediate vicinity. so, lazy it is. lots of legos. our site is close to the pool. and it’s been […]
