West Thumb – Yellowstone National Park

Posted on by Posted in RV Living, Scenery, Sightseeing .

Today we visited the West Thumb in Yellowstone National Park.

This is located in the lower area of Yellowstone. The geysers put off a lot of heat, it kinda feels like you are in a sauna. The walk around these geysers was not very long.

Mom didn’t go on this walk because we didn’t know if we could get the wheelchair through the boardwalk.

It was really cool how some of the geysers we’re kinda erupting.

It is funny how everyone was looking at one and another one across from it got jealous and boiled a bunch. We met a group of people that told us that one of the geysers is 53 feet deep.

The lake was very very pretty.

It was cool how there was one geyser with hot water coming out right next to the cold water lake.

The water that the girls and I touched was cold and it was from some of the geysers. The reason that it was cold is because it was going through a little stream which cooled the water off.

Picking Fresh Apples In New Jersey

Posted on by Posted in RV Living .

Today, we are picking FRESH apples from an apple tree farm! Some of the apples were very perfect and then others weren’t so much, some of them were rotted, so we had to be careful on what we picked! Some of the trees were tiny but others were big, so some of them we had to climb or shake to get the apples off of. BUT, all in all, we had an amazing time and will do it again some day!

The food here was not the best, but it was okay. The people seemed friendly. I would give it a 2 out of 5, I don’t recommend it though. – Amber

Surviving North Padre Island

Posted on by Posted in Boondocking, RV Living, Sightseeing .

We

We are staying at North Padre Island in Texas! We came down here for Christmas and the girls visited some family, while we relaxed! We had a excellent time and really enjoyed it!

There were lots of birds along the beach and many were flying in circles.

We even saw a Coast Guard plane fly along the coast.

The wind was blowing so hard that we were nearly stuck in the drifts.

Lackawanna Coal Mine

Posted on by Posted in Sightseeing .

Today, we are touring a coal mine that has been closed since 1966! We were several hundred feet UNDERNEATH the ground! The coal mine was cold and wet! The mine still had some coal in it, but it wasn’t able to extracted anymore. There were tons of cool things to learn and see in the mine. Not handicap friendly unfortunately since we had to take a tram like vehicle down the old cart tracks and the tunnels are kinda narrow. We enjoyed it very much!
