We have planned. We have prepped. We now pray. And this being spring and summer of 2020 we do a lot of praying. It’s inevitable. Something will happen, it’s going to and nothing you do stops it. When the Coronovirus hit we prayed majorally. We prayed, like everyone else, for it to be some big…

PLAN (PREP) PRAY
For once, Jim feels the truck and camper is completely ready. He worked tirelessly over the past several months making many alterations and upgrades. He’s excited about our new cell phone booster. Boy will be doing online classes again this year, so he will need the extra connectivity. In addition to the booster,, he also…
(Plan) Prep Pray
Planning for a normal camping trip can be daunting. Planning for a two month adventure is beyond intimidating. So many things to do. Months before a trip, Capt’n Jim will haul out the navigational charts (Google Earth and Allstays) and plan our destination. This takes hours and days, months even, of careful contemplation. Virtual field…
Singing Hills Campground Cave City 6-17-18
We used Passport America to find a campground near Mammoth Caves in Cave City, Ky. Singing Hills Campground http://www.singinghillsrvpark.com/ was fairly nice campground very near the many touristy attractions in the area. We were surprised at how many there were. However, we were there for the caves! Singing Hills is run by a very nice couple. …
Little River Campground
Just outside of Ft. Payne, Alabama lies a quiet and most pleasing campground. We found Little River Canyon Campground on the Passport America app. We had driven quite a ways and was ready for a break. The campground wasn’t hard to find and was fairly close to Ft. Payne, which made day trips to town…
Cherokee Rock
After a great fail trying to get to Chief Ladiga campground Captain Jim used freecampsites.net and found Cherokee Rock Campgrounds (Alabama.) It wasn’t far from where we were and had promising reviews. Hmmm? Although we did not encounter anymore Bridge Out signs we did have to endure a quite steep, narrow entrance road to the…
Lake Pines R.V. And campground
June 7, 2018 Our stop in Midland, Georgia was precipitated by the use of Passport America. We had a mostly pleasant drive (except Columbus) through quiet State highways. We decided to stop at Lake Pines RV and Campground for some much-needed rest. The campground overall is very pleasant. It is fairly clean, however the sites…
Campground Nowhere
Last night we stopped at a county park campground in Bastom, Alabama, called Neal’s Landing. This campground was an unmarked almost free campground. We found it on the site https://freecampsites.net/. We had to use their directions because Google tried to take us somewhere else. That somewhere was an exercise in determination and patience for Capt….
Chief Ladiga and Burning Bridges
Oh My! What do I say about this trip? Wow! As I stated before we are “winging it” this summer. No reservations, just the general direction of North or Northwest as our heading and using camping apps as our guide. “Chief Ladiga!” I exclaimed while viewing Allstays. https://www.chiefladigatrailcampground.com/ https://www.allstays.com/ “I remember seeing information about this…
On the Road Again
Another school year done, another summer to begin. This year promises to be quite interesting as we are changing things up a bit. Normally, Capt. Jim prefers to make reservations for the whole summer. This year we are “winging it.” NO RESERVATIONS! We plan on heading north, northish. (Originally we were to go to Colorado…
