Brittany and I started our RV adventure at McKinney Falls State Park in Austin, Texas just over a year ago. Today we find ourselves here again. It is sublime. Simply put, we love this place and it’s time to get back into our RV blogging groove…

We’ve received so many messages from folks, asking us to update our blog. Thank you for that! It means a lot to us to know y’all follow our adventures. You are truly our family out here on the road and we’ve been blessed to meet so many of you in person!

We’ve been floored to have 1700+ of you follow us on Facebook, 700+ on Twitter, and even 100+ on Pinterest!

I know we haven’t updated our blog in awhile and this year we resolve to do better. We’ve actually hatched a plan… [Read more…]

Captain’s Remarks

11:39 – As usual, our lives are filled with adventure at every turn. This week we canoed right past a 5-6 ft alligator and then went swimming in a natural spring-fed pool. We’ve been so busy, again, I’ve had to force myself to sit down and write a Captain’s Log so we are able to look back and reflect on our adventures someday. [Read more…]

RV Park Review: Natchez State Park in Natchez, MS

by Leave a Comment

One of our bucket list items was to drive the entirety of the Natchez Trace Parkway. We crossed that item off our list when we finished the journey on March 22, 2014 at the north terminus of the Trace, near Nashville.

But the journey started 13 days and 444 miles earlier, south of that point in Natchez, MS where the Trace begins.

We only drive on the weekends, since we do client work from Meriwether during the week. So we needed a place to stay for the week before we began the journey up the Parkway. After looking around at our options, we landed on Natchez State Park.

When given a choice (meaning it has good Internet connectivity and sites large enough for Meriwether), we’ll always choose a National, State or County park. They are treasures of our country. [Read more…]
