After a particularly long work week, with our eyes constantly glued to computer screens and our minds worn out from the hum-drum of the routine, we were ready to get out of the confines of our RV for the weekend. Friday evening, we still didn’t have a plan on what we wanted to do. All …
US Space & Rocket Center — Huntsville AL
Don’t forget your camera when you come to the US Space & Rocket Center in Hunsville, AL. There are plenty of things to take pictures of and we were surprised how big and how many buildings the grounds actually had. You’d see things like The Saturn V Rocket restored, the charred Apollo 16 Command Module, …
US Space & Rocket Center
We are spending the day in Huntsville, AL. We are having a nice time at the US Space & Rocket Center. I think we’ve turned into big kids. We like all the interactive displays.
Covered Bridges of Blount County
For this week’s Sunday drive, we decided to explore some of Alabama’s ten historic covered bridges. Since the map showed three just south of us in Blount County, we decided to start there. We headed to Cleveland to begin our hunt. Swann Covered Bridge was the first one we tried to find. We were quite …
Alabama Jubilee — Part 2
We were quite proud of ourselves with yesterday’s post. It was done completely on our phone right there at the Alabama Jubilee. We may be a little behind on technology, but we love it and have fun discovering more. We are in the Decatur, AL area for the next several weeks. We heard that Memorial Day Weekend …
Alabama Jubilee
We are starting our day at Alabama Jubilee in Decatur. Things are just getting started. We hear that the balloon race has been cancelled so far because of the lack of wind. Looks like they will just did tethered rides. We hope to be able to go up. Our first time at a balloon fest.
Dinosaur Ridge
We’ve driven by it several times, but today was the day we decided to see what Dinosaur Ridge was all about. Since it is only a couple of miles from Dakota Ridge RV Park, we decided to bike it. Oh my goodness, you find out quickly just how out of shape you are while pedaling …
National Parks, Frozen Dead Guys, and Alternators
What an eventful day. This is going to be our last weekend in Colorado for quite some time and we wanted to make sure we did some more sightseeing, but where to go? We finally decided on going back to the Rocky Mountain National Park since it was free National Park weekend. The last time we …
Biking Golden
Today we decided to go on a little bike ride that ended up being almost 30 miles from about 9a.m. to 5p.m. We left Dakota Ridge RV Park in Golden toward downtown Golden. It was such a beautiful spring day, so we kept riding. We made a stop at Golden’s Visitor’s Center. What a nice …
Weekend of Hiking
We know that we’ve come to Colorado during the coldest time of the year, but for the last couple of weekends we were itching to go hiking with the dogs. It didn’t work out because it was either too cold or too windy. This weekend was our chance with temps in the 60’s and practically …
