So, we’re cruising down the *ahem* beautiful highway of West Virginia (no offense WV peeps), and all of a sudden my oil pressure drops really low and the light and buzzer on the dash start going off. A few seconds later the pressure returned to a more normal number and light/buzzing stopped. Whew! I was …
Virginia! Let me say it again Virginia! We had so much fun when we were there – Yes we only stopped for a day and spent the night in a Walmart parking lot but it was one of the most enjoyable days we have had hiking as a whole family. We started by driving into …
When we started planning on living this lifestyle we planned it with my Sister and her husband. Our original plan was to buy a duplex together and then travel for long stretches of the year together. After we took a RV trip for a couple of weeks we talked to them again about doing it …
Holy sharks! This was an interesting experience. You walk in the door and the first thing you see is a touch tank. It is a perfect height for kids – so what do they do but reach their hands in and start touching and grabbing things. Which is awesome! Cannon picked up a starfish and …
Hitting the road has definitely made our kids more adventurous! Before we left we would go to a lot of museums and activities around our home town and the kids always had a good time. Carson use to have a fear of swimming in the ocean because he was afraid a shark was going to get …

We headed down to Key West and parked at Fort Zachary Taylor. We planned this trip with our friends from Free 2 Breathe, Adventuring While We’re Young, and Campground Views. So we had a group of 17 of us! Which included 9 kids under the age of 8. We all met at Fort Zachary Taylor …
Bahia Honda State Park in Marathon, Florida Keys is beautiful! We pulled in and it started to rain so we headed over to the nature center. It was a small room but they had some cool information about animals in the area. We were also able to find out what some of the things we …
Right down the street from where we stayed in Orlando they had Orange picking! We were super excited to go to check it out and we had heard that they had AMAZING orange slushies too. They have some great photo ops right by the parking lot. A giant shark you can stick your head into …

We were so lucky to learn about the awesome reciprocal museum membership that you can buy. With our membership we get: Free admission …
Any time a kid gets hurt, it is no fun. A broken bone while traveling is one of the worst-case scenarios. When it happens on the road there is an added element of worry since you are not familiar with the area, doctors, hospitals, etc. We were at the Shell Factory in Fort Meyers (a …
