For our attendance at the Homeschool Association of California conference this year, we had first planned to stay at the hotel, and just park the RV in their parking lot.  But, further research found the Cal Expo RV Park that has laundry and showers, is $35 a night, and is only about 3 miles from […]

On our way from San Francisco, we stopped off in Fairfield, CA, for a tour of the world famous Jelly Belly factory.  RV parking here was excellent, with plenty of large spaces.  We got inside and found a pretty long line waiting for the tour.  We probably stood in line for close to an hour, […]

So, while at the San Francisco RV Resort, I saw a Monaco Vesta rolling into the park.  Now, there are probably hundreds of these on the road, so the chance of this one belonging to Jason and Nikki Wynn, (www.gonewiththewynns.com) whose adventures I’ve been following for a few months, was remote.  It was towing a […]

It was about 6 hours on the road today, with one stop for gas and to fix a quick lunch.  Molly did a bit better with the long journey, and spent most of the time in the back bedroom watching videos and skype/chatting with her friends. The trip was fairly uneventful except for the last […]

We made pretty good time with the packing.  It rained Sunday morning, so a little wet.  We’re looking forward to living in the RV fulltime, and not having to go through this very stressful and laborious acts of loading and unloading.  Diane was surprised, but all the clothes look like they will fit.  Only minor […]

We’re heading out today.  Got the RV packed over Saturday, and finished up today, Sunday, July 31.  Going to try and post each day, or at least at each location, and try out this new blog posting theme for WordPress.  These are coming in a day late, because for some reason, my brand new laptop […]

We’re heading out this weekend for a week of vacation.  Should be a good trip.  We’ll be hitting an RV place in Buellton, then up to San Francisco, over to Sacramento, then working our way home with one stop on the way.  Should be a good run for us, with 8 nights in the RV, […]

Things are moving forward.  Diane and I have had some discussions about timing of our departure, and then the schedule for the first few months.  It looks like Indiana for Novemberish time frame, back to CA for December/January, and then ??? for January/February.  We’d talked about Florida, but might just spend some time getting there […]

May the Fourth be with you.

It went fairly well.  Molly got sick the first day, and ended up sleeping both nights in the RV.  We originally had a spot that was farther away from the road, but, no electricity.  It got pretty cold that first night, and not enough battery/electricity to run the heater.  So, given the sick kid and […]
