With campgrounds opening up in Phase 2, we were excited to visit a few places close by for some socially distanced camping! While most museums, visitor centers, wineries, etc., were still closed, Northern California is full of wide open spaces, and we looked forward to some beautiful hikes, and a chance to visit a few...

...Well, from an RV-only perspective, that is...Our last RV trip was in late February, which seems ages ago. Like many of you, I have tried to spend the time productively –– binge-watching TV, ignoring household projects, eating more than I should, etc. ...Uh, I mean, INSTEAD of doing that, I spent some quality time getting...

Our drive back home from Ventura took us inland on Highway 101 through Buellton and Paso Robles. Rather than overnight stopovers, these are destinations all by themselves. Staying at the Flying Flags Resort, we spent some time in Solvang. It's a short bike ride (about 7 miles round trip) into town, and you don't have... Continue Reading →
While we are all sheltering in place, I thought I'd catch up on my posts from our recent trip to Ventura in February. We stayed 5 nights on the Rincon Parkway just north of Ventura on the Pacific Coast Highway. As you can see, it was dry camping, but the weather and ocean were spectacular... Continue Reading →
After our unplanned hiatus from RVing, we were thrilled to heading to our favorite destination, Pismo Beach. In the winter, we like to stay at Pismo Coast Village for the full hookups. Last year when we were here in February it was cold, windy, and rainy. This year, blue skies and temperatures in the high... Continue Reading →

While I won’t go into any detail about that, I will say that I am very grateful for my sister and nephew during this time. It is a real blessing when you... Continue Reading →
This was our first RV trip to Paso, though we have stopped on our way to other destinations many times. People that know wine believe it produces some of the best wine anywhere. While our pallet is not that sophisticated, we were looking forward to wine tasting and a trip to Cambria on the coast.... Continue Reading →
During I last trip, I shared about my backache right before the trip. This time, as if in sympathy for me, our RV had a few problems of it's own. The drive to Pismo State Beach was as beautiful as ever. Our campsite was wide and open, which is the reason the North Beach Campground... Continue Reading →
We had great plans for kayaking and bicycle riding in the Monterey area, but things changed pretty quickly. The morning we were to leave I was in the backyard, and I heard something in my back pop as I was picking something up. Ouch! Kayaking and biking were out of the questions, as I couldn't...
