After parting ways on the Delmarva while we attended a rendezvous of a different kind in New Bern, we had plans to meet back up with Nina & Paul in Charleston, SC for a bit on our southward repositioning. We had never been before, but the location has been on our must-do list for quite […]

Boat Shopping in Wilmington, NC – Carolina Beach State Park
As we continue to move down the coast, we look ahead on Yacht World for boats that are on our interest list. We’re working with a broker who has affiliates all over the place, so generally they’re able to have someone show us boats without anyone needing to travel to meet us. As we were […]
Marine Trawler Rendezvous & Chilling in New Bern, North Carolina
After a lovely time traveling south down the Delmarva Peninsula, it was time to part ways for a bit with our buddies Nina & Paul. They were headed out to the Outer Banks of North Carolina (Nina just posted her recap here of their trip – hmm.. it’s like we’re taking the same breaks from […]
Wild Horses Couldn’t Keep Us Apart – A Rendezvous with Dear Friends at Assateague State Park
As much as we could have easily settled in for a few more day at Lums Pond, we woke up on our departure day full of excitement. Today was the day. The day we would rendezvous with dear friends at an exciting location! When we last parted ways with Nina & Paul of Wheeling It in […]
Our First Boat Shopping Stop – Elk Neck State Park (MD) and Lums Pond State Park (DE)
We were sprung free from our round of bus maintenance in Vineland,NJ at US Coach later in the afternoon than we were expecting. We had reservations waiting for us in Maryland for the weekend, and an appointment in the morning to meet our boat broker for our first boat shopping stop (super excited!!). We hit […]
RVing in the Northeast – Lessons Learned & Summer Recap
Back in March, we starting making our plans to spend the summer RVing around the Northeast. An area of the country we had neglected in our prior years of RVing. In our post announcing these plans, we made these statements: We know RVing up that way is much more expensive than we’re used to, more […]
Exiting the Northeast Just Like We Entered – More Bus Maintenance
We officially entered the Northeast (depending on how you define what states are included in the ‘Northeast’) back in mid-June. Our first stop then was US Coach in Vineland, New Jersey for preventative bus maintenance. We liked the shop so much, we wanted to return and get ahead on a few other issues. But first, […]
There’s Nothing Rotten About Groton
First.. thank you. Your outpouring of support for our upcoming new adventure totally blew us away. It’s always a touch scary approaching a new chapter, and announcing it is a big step. In the past, we’ve gotten mixed reactions to what seemed like departures from our course. Perhaps this led to over-explaining our decision which helped pre-empt […]
Catching Up at Horseneck Beach State Reserve, Massachusetts
After reaching our 50th state of Rhode Island, we wanted to retreat somewhere we could get some work done, and have access to the Cape Cod area of Massachusetts. We had a blog reader we really wanted to meet up with, and Chris’ cousin spends his summers on Martha’s Vineyard. So we back tracked a […]
Does Visiting All 50 States Mean You’ve Seen the Country?
Some travelers keep a bucket list of items to check off – such as visiting all the national parks, visiting every state or seeing every ball of twine. We really never had a list when we set off full timing. But we did have the ambitious intentions to ‘visit most of the lower 48, Alaska and […]
