Home Sweet Room 2017-06-29 | Melody Stevenson | 1 Comment During the winter and spring we took a break from life on the road and decided to cool our heels in Houston to spend some time with friends and family and enjoy the holidays and the short season of lovely weather that the city never fails to provide. Instead of moving into an RV park,… Read More
Texas to Colorado 2017-06-23 | Melody Stevenson | 2 Comments While Texas will forever hold a special place in my heart, there are few feelings that surpass the exhilaration of finally hitting that stateline! There was an overwhelming wave of relief yesterday when I (at last!) returned to my primary element of exploration. And, although the route through west Texas & northeastern New Mexico holds… Read More
It’s the little things. 2017-06-18 | Russell Anthony | Leave a comment Spending time in the RV, you notice things about it. One thing you get the sense of is that the RV industry is typically really good about putting just about every inch they can to some kind of use. This helps maximize space quite a bit with creative cabinetry and such. What they can’t really… Read More
It’s not yours until you break it. 2017-06-16 | Russell Anthony | 2 Comments That’s how the saying goes, so I’ve heard. Well, the RV DEFINITELY feels like mine now after just a few years. I guess technically I didn’t break (all of) the things that have needed attention along the way, but I have been getting really intimate with how to fix stuff. On the list of things… Read More
A Brief History of Wanderlust 2017-06-09 | Melody Stevenson | Leave a comment It is difficult to put into words just how much travel means to me. It is an all-encompassing, roiling wave that directs my life. It is the core of all plans, direction and inspiration. But it doesn’t just begin and end with myself. There is a deep-seated conviction inside me that others should experience travel and participate… Read More
Testing testing. 1, 2, 3 … 4? 2017-04-13 | Russell Anthony | Leave a comment So it’s been a while since I posted anything to this blog. That’s totally on me, and something I told myself I wouldn’t do again – take huge long breaks between posts. Seems it’s hard to get into the habit of writing about travels, and then keep it up when you’re not actually travelling. True,… Read More
An Acadian Autumn 2017-04-06 | Melody Stevenson | Leave a comment One of the main reasons we stayed in Bangor, Maine this past fall was the town’s proximity to Acadia National Park just a short drive away. As a national park junkie, Acadia represents the north-eastern most pilgrimage along a rocky coastline of pointed firs and lighthouses. For me personally, Acadia has stood as an elusive,… Read More
When in Maine… 2017-04-05 | Melody Stevenson | Leave a comment The decision to spend September and October in Maine was an easy one. Visions of autumn leaves and pumpkin patches danced in my head along with dreams of hayrides, corn mazes and apple orchards. Once we arrived in Bangor, Maine and set up the RV and trailer at a place called Pumpkin Patch RV park… Read More
An Applecrest Slice of Heaven 2017-02-17 | Melody Stevenson | Leave a comment There is a little place, nestled a few miles off the highway in the coastal region of New Hampshire, that became very dear to us over our summer and fall in New England. From my very first visit to Applecrest Farms in 2013, I was hooked. Years later, I was so pleased to have the… Read More
Confessions of a Travelholic 2017-01-06 | Melody Stevenson | Leave a comment Signs you might be suffering from extreme wanderlust-ia/travelholism You continually see the shape of states and countries in your food (ex: “Woah, this romaine leaf looks exactly like New Zealand!” Your heart beats a little bit faster anytime you see map paraphernalia (ex: “OMG I have to have this world map laundry bag.) You actually… Read More
