Well, all good things must come to an end. We had 200 uneventful miles to drive today. This was the hurricane forecast we woke up to this morning. We think we made the right decision to get out of the Gulf area, especially not knowing where these hurricanes were going. It will be interesting to …
We woke with a jump when a clap of thunder let loose right above our bed. Yikes! It did that two more times and then it started to pour. We laid awake listening to the rain for awhile. It was only 6:30 AM. We got up and got going as we were leaving today. While …

After a lot of discussion and careful consideration, we decided to cut our vacation short by 5 days due to Hurricane Laura. We decided it was best to go home and deal with the hurricane from there. There is no record of 2 hurricanes existing in the Gulf of Mexico at the same time. There …
We got up early to prepare the bus for our departure today. Bob had to attend the Co-op Board of Director’s meeting at 9:30 EDT (8:30 our time) virtually, so we wanted to make sure we could leave as soon as the meeting was over. We wouldn’t have much to do if we did it …

I’m getting used to sleeping in. We wanted to wash the bus today since most campgrounds won’t allow you to do it for one reason or another and this campground doesn’t have any rules against it. We washed the shady side in the morning and would do the other side in the afternoon when it …
We slept in and had a leisurely morning. It was nice to have an “open” timeline for ourselves today and just go whenever we got around to it. We spent some time tracking down our toilet part which should be delivered by UPS today. We left the campground around 11:30 to take a leisurely drive …
Since leaving Pueblo, we have traveled 1,213 miles through Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana in 5 days. Today was a short drive on 150 miles to Biloxi where we are staying for 3 days. The last 2 days is the most time we’ve spent in Louisiana other than a few days in New Orleans for Mardi …
We had a restful night and were on the road at 9:00. It was Sunday and there was hardly any traffic. The skies were hazy with a temp of 84 degrees. It felt like 93 with a humidity level of 73 degrees. Still, it wasn’t too bad. The drive was uneventful traveling through Kisatchie National …
Happy heavenly birthday, Dad. I miss you every day. We had an issue with the jacks this morning that we had to resolve. Yesterday, when we put the back jacks down on our arrival, they sunk about a foot into the gravel. It must have created a vacuum and then the stones filled in around …
Well, we had no issues with the toilet yesterday. Bob disassembled the part that had failed and made an adjustment to the spring which helped it function a little better for the time being. We just have to remember to turn the water pump on when we need water and to turn it off when …
