Week In Review (Season 3 Week 28)

Posted on by Posted in RV Living .

This week we were busy bugs. We had to leave Kristofer Travels’ place, I cry we can’t wait to see him again.

Then we moved to, Mesilla New Mexico. Very cool, the girls and Gary decided they were gonna get up there and sing away. I feel embarrassed for them lol. While we were in Mesilla we went to this Billy the Kid place.

Then we went to Betty’s place (dad’s cousin). We hung out and rode horses.
I wasn’t riding it correctly. What I was doing wrong was that I was sitting more to the left so I could have fallen off.

Then we finally got home yayyyyyy!!! Everyone was so happy to see us again. When we got back they had a beautiful spot for the camper to go. I guess they like us…

Thank you my friends for letting us take you on this adventure.
Season 3 had come to an end. See you next time.

Week In Review (Season 3 Week 26)

Posted on by Posted in RV Living, Sightseeing .

Today, we get the pleasure of exploring the Cactus Forest (Saguaro National Park West). I thought it was going to be a forest with cactus, but I was wrong. It was just rolling hills of cactus, tons and tons of cactus! But there were also cactus that looked liked trees, we called them cactus trees, but we aren’t entirely sure what they are actually called! If anyone who does know what they are, put it in the comment section below! We also ate Silly Al’s, their pizza tasted delicious and they had a band preforming that night too. All in all, Arizona treated us well.

Week In Review (Season 3 Week 21)

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

This week was another busy week.

Dad “surprised” Elizabeth with B.Brian Preserve. You might be wondering what is this “B.Brian Preserve”. Well, I have the answer to your question, its a place with zebras, antelope, and giraffes 🦒. The place is breeding these animals to re-introduce them to Africa.

Then we slowly make our way to Glass Beach. Rumor has it you can’t keep the glass from the beach. History time children, so a bunch of people were throwing trash and glass on this beach 50 years ago. The water pulled the glass and stuff out and when it “spit” it back out it would hit the rocks and some how smooth the edges of the glass so now you can walk on it and not cut yourself.

Then we moved onto, One Log House. In my opinion, you would have to worry about mold and stuff but it was cool. It is just like a tiny house or a tiny RV with no slides.

Week In Review (Season 3 Week 20)

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

This week was a busy week.

First, we went to Avenue of the Giants. This place was full of HUGE Redwoods trees to be exact. We even bought a Sequoia redwood to take home to plant. We even played Tarzan lol. I only know of one Redwood tree and that’s the Sequoia. Knowing me, I was probably told but I forgot lol. I gotta say, Avenue of the Giants you didn’t let us down.

Later that week we went to Trees of Mystery. This place was really cool. We took a tram up to the top deck. We could even see the ocean from that deck.

Anyway, we then continue off to Klamath Tour Thru Tree. Now this place was REALLY cool, we can’t fit the truck in there but we manage to get part of the front of it in there.

As we continue down the road we went to this “cheese place” (a cheese factory). There are so many different cheeses out there I didn’t even know about.

Then our last destination was the cemetery. From what it looked like, the people there were from like the 1800s.

Like I said “this week was REALLY busy”.

Week In Review (Season 3 Week 19)

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

First, we went to the Sea Lion Caves.
This place was really cool looking at all the sea lions.
I loved this place so much I even drew a “cowboy sea lion” when we got back to the house.

Then we moved on to the Depoe Bay whale watching place.
We even caught a tail on video… yay.
The boat ride was really cool, we got to not only see whales but jellyfish too.

We also took a stop by West Coast Game Park Safari.
We got to feed and pet many different animals.
I got a kick outta watching the bears wave when you shake your food cone at them.

The campgrounds were clean and quiet.
The Alder Dune Campground was basically empty. There was no one but us, the camp host, and one other person.
The Cape Blanco Campground filled up really fast every night but that aside, this was a really nice campground.

Southern Loop – Yellowstone National Park

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

Today we are visiting the Yellow Stone National Park Southern Loop. This loop contains Old Faithful, Gibbon Falls and other cool things. The southern loop is probably my favorite part of Yellowstone. It has a lot of waterfalls and trails as well. It is very beautiful like the rest of the park.

And in the words of Jupiter:

Week In Review (Season 3 Week 17)

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

We are staying at Denny Creek Campground in Washington. We had Verizon and AT&T service which is always good.

We also took the time to walk down into Franklin Falls. The hike was almost 2.5 miles round trip. There are bathrooms at the beginning of the trail so you might wanna go then because there are not any further down the trail. The trail down into the falls was not that hard but it is not wheelchair accessible. When you get close to the falls the trail turns into a narrow rock ledge.
You could get right up to the falls but we didn’t get in the water and swim. We stayed at the edge of the pool at the bottom.

Wings Over Washington was really cool. I would definitely do that again.

The Volunteer Park was cool. I liked climbing on the trees and chasing squirrels around.

The Ferris Wheel on the pier was really cool. When you get to the top, you get a nice view of Seattle, Washington. Elizabeth wanted to go on the Ferris Wheel but at the top she was a little worried about falling but she still had fun.

Tower Falls – Yellowstone National Park

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

Today we visited Tower Falls, Yellowstone National Park. It is kinda north of the lake, I do recommend visiting the Tower Falls. As you see, Dad is very thirsty and wanted a drink of the nice water from the falls.

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.
