Creating Family Connections One RV Adventure at a Time
Last summer during our tour of the Washington, D.C. region, a fellow camper gave us a great tip about going to the National Museum of the Marine Corps. We had never heard of it before, but since we had some extra time in our schedule, we decided to go check it out, and we are thankful we did! Much like the extensive U.S. Air Force

As we have watched the news and read the latest reports, we have been mulling over the ways our family can respond responsibly while still being a blessing to our community. Doing things like sending cards to nursing homes, chalking our driveway with words of encouragement, sewing masks, or getting
Here at our house we’re busy counting down the days until our spring break RV adventure. Our kids are excited about their upcoming week off from school, but they’re also getting excited about all the things we will be able to see and do on our visit to Charleston, S.C.

Every time we passed through the state we’d say to ourselves, “This is such a beautiful place—we really need to spend time exploring West Virginia!” Then over the summer, Jarrett and our youngest son went on a mini overloading trip: They tent camped and checked out various spots in West
On our way south to visit family for Thanksgiving, we decided to make a stop in Charlotte, N.C., so we could explore the Billy Graham Library and the Discovery Place Science Center.

However, during our visit the Oak
Today’s the day!!! My new ebook The Ultimate RV Trip Planner officially launched on Amazon.

For a long time Jarrett wanted to drive the Blue Ridge Parkway from one end to the other with our camper in tow. Our plan to visit the Smoky Mountains and Shenandoah National Park this past summer provided the perfect opportunity to put that bucket list adventure into motion. In the time since we took the trip, we’ve heard from other RVers who have thought about
For a long time Jarrett wanted to drive the Blue Ridge Parkway from one end to the other with our camper in tow. Our plan to visit the Smoky Mountains and then D.C. this summer provided the perfect opportunity to put that bucket list adventure into motion. But it’s not the kind of RV trip you want to make on a whim. Here are five
Tucked just two miles off of I-77 in West Virginia along a rambling road, lies Camp Creek State Park. This mountain retreat surrounded by gurgling creeks boasts just 26 campsites, but offers campers a taste of West Virginian mountain glory.
