First night on this trip and there’s no overnight parking at Walmart! What? Luckily there’s a KOA right next door! We did the self check in and found our spot in the dark. Had a great nights sleep 😴

After a great day on the road we settled into our camp spot early to enjoy a home cooked supper. The drive today was full of sunshine and strong winds (45mph but felt like more…). We could barely get the truck doors open to get in and out. It was a white knuckle hold on the steering wheel for over an hour 😫. Billings was a highlight for sure! We didn’t go down into town but the vantage point from the lookout was amazing. Also, I would have liked to go see if Rip was in town but it was a long way down for the old girl (the truck haha) so I’ll have to settle for the new season of Yellowstone to get my fill.Läs mer

So….turns out not everyday is a fun day on the road 😂 today we were both tired after a lousy nights sleep. We slept in a little and were pretty grouchy most of the day so we called it done early (but actually made some good time as the day was sunny and scenic!) and found a camp spot in town. After a long hot shower each and dinner, we feel like a hundred bucks. Here’s hoping tomorrow is more enjoyable and we can get a bit further along on the journey 🥰

ps. Didn’t take a single picture today…so left an oldie but a goodie there for something to look at.Läs mer

Road tripping gives you a lot of time to think. We are doing our best to spend time thinking about the future and this simple life we have created for ourselves. It’s a learning curve for sure! I realized when I left Okotoks that I didn’t have much left on my to-do list and I felt a bit freaked out about it. Clem reminded me that I’d done a wonderful job of getting us to where we were and I deserved a break from the to-do list. It feels good. 🥰 #retiredlifestyle #firsttimesnowbirds #howmanybeachescanwehitLäs mer

Albuquerque New Mexico (Bernalillo)

Stopped in North Albuquerque for the night (again at a KOA campground). We drove through some mountains today in a snowstorm! Did our first American grocery shop in Santa Fe (also in a snowstorm). Thankfully it didn’t stay on the ground…
The terrain here is a bit desert like and has more forest than the previous three states. It’s going to be fun once we unload the e-bikes! Whoop!
Tomorrow we are going to find some BLM land to stay on for a longer stretch as the weather looks to be above zero, and even high teens during the day, for 10ish days. We will be testing our off grid capabilities for sure.
It was a great day on the road and we are excited to be so far south. 🥰Läs mer

We are happy to be in Texas! Better roads, less garbage, thriving towns and more to see. And cheaper gas! New Mexico was a bit disappointing to be honest…depressed, filled with “ghost” towns, roads were so bad, and garbage was everywhere. Anyway, we plan to stay two nights here and then off to Oklahoma City! Only because it’s on the way to Waco 🥳 where we will likely stay for a couple weeks. 💕Läs mer

Arrived at our campsite before supper, after our second grocery shop of the trip. The cupboards we pretty bare…
We are thrilled with the riverfront location so may stay awhile! Looks to be a good spot for bike riding and there’s a gift shop (Mom! Hahaha) and a restaurant close by offering a discount for campers 😋
We are sitting outside and enjoying the sun (although it’s starting to set and cool down a bit). I believe we will call this home for a few days. 🥰Läs mer

Staying at our first Harvest Host tonight! A great coffee shop was more appealing to us than a brewery or vineyard…we may try those too…but coffee is really the priority in this house on wheels 😂

Staying at the NRS (National Roper’s Supply) Ranch for a couple of nights with Harvest Hosts! Saw some calf roping today, went for a long bike ride on the property and saw a beautiful sunset. There’s a huge store that is everything cowboy! Almost 100,000sf of cowboy stuff 😂
It’s good to be back in Texas where the land is vast and the gas is cheap. 🥰Läs mer
