TwoWhewelRambling (Added 8/16/19) "Dan & Sarah have both loved and enjoyed motorcycle riding for years and each of them have traveled all over the country on 2 wheels with Dan in particular riding in all 48 states plus Alaska. However they have decided they wanted more than just a week trip here or there, so they sold their house and ventured into the full time RV living to chase the good weather and go find those destinations theyhave been dreaming of visiting. Along the way they decided to pick up mountain biking for those areas where bicycles are more appropiate."

However they have decided they wanted more than just a week trip here or there, so they sold their house and ventured into the full time RV living to chase the good weather and go find those destinations they have been dreaming of visiting. Along the way they decided to pick up mountain biking for those areas where bicycles are more appropriate.

Casita Camping (Added 9/5/16) Nathan's About Me: "I've always thought I liked writing. You'd think I'd know for sure, but that's just me. And I'm ok with it. I also like humor, in whatever form it presents itself. I thought if I tried combining the two, maybe others would get a kick out of it, and we could all have a laugh...at me...and I'm ok with that. Please enjoy, come back often, and by all means, don't take it seriously!"

Highway to Hoeftland (Added 12/9/15) "Highway to Hoeftland is about Kristin and Mike’s experiences and opinions while exploring in the American West and beyond.

The first three and one-half years of travel are documented in a separate trip journal (2007-2010) that you can view by selecting it in the drop-down menu on the right. That journal was becoming too large so we now create a separate journal for each new year of our travels. Our home is a 23' Komfort Travel Trailer named "Da Honu" (Hawaiian for "The Turtle").

I live in a small vintage travel trailer that is set up to live very comfortably off grid when needed, but I am busy installing tech items and modifying it with geeky stuff so that when I DO have power .. I will really piss off the neighbors. I share the rig with 2 beagles and a Tabby Cat.. or I should say, they share it with me."

For-Camping (Added 11/17/11) From their "What is this blog about" - You know…sometimes we wonder, too, what this blog is all about. So far, we don't get many legitimate comments. We do, however, get a lot of "comment spam!" We started off, when our kids were young, tent camping all over New Hampshire and our neighboring states. Over the years, we made the common progression from tent camping, to a pop-up camper, and for the past several years we've enjoyed our travel trailers. We've ventured further from home and enjoyed longer trips, but we both still work and so are still somewhat limited in how far and for how long we can go.

The RV Tripper (Added 11/17/11) Kyla's blog covers a month long trip around the western & central US.

On March 28, 2009 we took delivery of our new Montana Big Sky 340RL It is about a foot longer then our other Tana and the grapics do not match our truck but it sure is a beautiful unit."

Roving With Mark & Dale (Added 2/27/11) From their About Us: "In 2001, Mark and I put together a five year plan, with the goal of retiring, selling our house and living and traveling full-time in an RV. That plan became a reality in June 2006. We have been traveling and experiencing the most fascinating life since then. This blog is intended to keep our friends and family up to date with our activities and encounters through stories and pictures. We live in a 40′ fifth wheel trailer…tow it with a Volvo 770 modified tractor…and tow a red Jeep behind the trailer. Please, come along with us and enjoy!"

We started on Missouri lakes and graduated to saltwater in 1994 when we moved Pegasus our Hunter 37 to Punta Gorda, Florida. We later moved to a Hunter 420 that was named Bella. Both Pegasus and Bella were frequent visitors to the Bahamas and Florida Keys. On our last 2009 trip to the Bahamas, we decided to sell the boat and start to travel the United States while are still young enough to do it. We bought a 2004 Winnebago Vectra 40AD that we named BAGO. Since we named all the boats, we decided that the coach needed a name as well." Check their blog pages for their travels.
