Eli Goes To The Show

Posted on by Posted in Uncategorized .


In this video, my steer Eli and I get to attend the Heart O’ Texas Fair and Rodeo. Heart O’ Texas and the Texas State Fair came together this year to provide more shows for the kids since the State Fair of Texas was cancelled. Due to COVID-19, most places had cancelled or chose not have as many shows.

Eli and I participated in the Heart O’ Texas Junior Market Steer show, The United (the united was the name of the State Fair and HOT Fair show combined) Showmanship Show, and The United Prospect Steer Show. We did not place in any of the shows. He was the smallest and youngest animal in the two steer shows. In the showmanship show, there was just too many contestants.

All in all, we had fun and gained a lot of knowledge for what to do next time.

More From The Bighorn Mountains

Posted on by Posted in Scenery, Sightseeing .

Today, we show you some of the drive from when we went to Shell Falls in the Bighorn Mountains. The video from Shell Falls was made available one week before this video.

This is part of our Season 3 Part 2 and was filmed in the second half of 2019.


Shell Falls Bighorn Mountains

Posted on by Posted in Scenery, Sightseeing .

Join us as we visit Shell Falls in the Bighorn Mountains in Wyoming.

This was such a beautiful drive to get here with plenty of slow and sharp turns. There is so much scenery in this area.

This is part of our Season 3 Part 2 and was filmed in the second half of 2019.

Freeze Out Bighorn Mountains

Posted on by Posted in Scenery, Sightseeing .

This spot is a favorite of many members of our family and it is referred to as Freeze Out. It is a very beautiful spot and the drive to it is wonderful.

When you google Freeze Out Point, Google Maps returns a location a few dozen miles to the north. I have provided information below to locate this exact spot. This is one of those places that takes you more than 2 hours to go 18 miles one way. A high clearance vehicle is needed and a 4 wheel drive is recommended.

This is part of our Season 3 Part 2 and was filmed in the second half of 2019.

Boondocking at Buffalo Gap National Grassland

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

This is a great place to to boondock (a.k.a. dry camp or dispersed camp) just outside of the north entrance of the Badlands National Park. The views are great, just as if you were in the national park itself.

This is part of our Season 3 Part 2 and was filmed in the second half of 2019.

World Famous Wall Drug

Posted on by Posted in Sightseeing .

Welcome to the world famous Wall Drug store in South Dakota.

There are signs along the highways for hundreds of miles advertising free water and 25 cent coffee at Wall Drug. We even saw a sign in the middle of nowhere over 1000 miles away. I think regular people put up the signs for fun. Supposedly, there are signs in many countries around the world.

The story begins with a failing drug store in a small town. The owner’s wife came up with the idea to offer free ice water. The owner and his sin made signs and left to put them along the highway. By the time they got back home, thirsty travelers were already stopping for the free ice water. This later expanded to include 25 cent coffee. They still offer both today.

Wall, South Dakota is a short distance from the north side of Badlands National Park. Wall Drug now consists of several city blocks. They even have a parking area dedicated to about 25 or 30 RVs.

This is part of our Season 3 Part 2 and was filmed in the second half of 2019.

Oswald Bear Ranch

Posted on by Posted in Sightseeing .

Join us as we visit bears up close. They are obviously not wild, but the Oswald Bear Ranch is a rescue location for bears.

Dad had a baby bear try to climb his leg when we were getting pictures with the baby bear. Of course, the workers had our camera and did not capture that part. So sad.

This is part of our Season 3 Part 2 and was filmed in the second half of 2019.

Mackinac Bridge Connecting Upper And Lower Michigan

Posted on by Posted in Sightseeing .

Today, we cross the Mackinac Bridge from lower Michigan to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The Mackinac Bridge is a narrow 4 lane bridge and had construction in 2 different places just on the northbound side. Oh, and by the way, it is a toll bridge but it was not major expensive.

This is part of our Season 3 Part 2 and was filmed in the second half of 2019.

National Sprint Car Museum

Posted on by Posted in Boondocking .

Join us as we explore the National Sprint Car Museum in Knoxville, Iowa.

This is part of our Season 3 Part 2 and was filmed in the second half of 2019. We went on a day that was fairly slow and was given a private tour for just the normal admission. This is a must stop if you are in the area.

The National Sprint Car Museum is part of the Harvest Hosts (http://harvesthosts.refr.cc/livingcoast2coast) program where members are able to stay overnight at select museums, wineries, breweries, attractions, and golf courses. Use my link above for a 15% discount on membership. They also provide a 50 amp hookup for your RV if you called ahead and scheduled your stay. You will need a straight end on you power cord to connect to the power source.
