It is spring time and we are in Victoria on Vancouver Island. A visit to the world renowned Butchart Gardens is a must and had been on our “todo” list for quite a while. The Butchart Gardens lie half-way between Victoria and Sidney on the south eastern portion of Vancouver […]
Anacortes to Sidney, BC Vancouver Island had been on the “bucket list” for quite a while so when we arrived in the Seattle area, we decided to elebrate our wedding anniversary and Linda’s birthday (which fall within 2 days of each other in the middle of May) in Victoria, which […]
We had underestimated how large the Olympic Peninsula in Washington is! We booked ourselves into an RV Park in Hoodsport, right alongside the Hood Canal on the eastern side of the peninsula. The Hood Canal is a fjord forming the western lobe of Puget Sound in the state of Washington. From […]
The Oregon Coast is famous for its scenic beauty and quaint towns so we had high expectations when setting off to Tillamook. We were not disappointed! Even the heavy overcast skies and low temperatures could not dim our enthusiasm. In fact, those weather conditions actually added an extra quality to […]

So the decision has been made. We are going to Alaska in the motorhome, an estimated 7000 mile, 150 hour round trip. Kinda daunting when you see those numbers, but break it down into 4 months and all of a sudden, it looks a lot more reasonable. Should be a […]
I will admit to not knowing this . . . but you need a non-commercial Class B driver’s license in California for motorhomes 40ft or larger. Considering that ours is 42ft long, we now realize we drove it illegally for about 9 months. I am now “legal” of course, but […]
