Our Final 2024 Destinations

9/7/2024 to 10/12/2024 The rest of the 2024 journey took us through Clinton, Indiana to Kentucky to Tennessee to Georgia. We stopped briefly in Clinton, Indiana to visit the town Jeff’s great-grandfather Valentino Costa migrated to from Italy which is also the town his grandfather Chris Costa was born. It’s a quaint little town with great Italian […]

2024 Michigan and Indiana

8/29/2024 to 9/7/2024 While we stayed in Elkhart Indiana, we visited Holland Michigan which was only 1.5 hours away. The main attraction that we visited was Windmill Island Gardens. Located on this island is an authentic windmill built in 1884 and named De Zwann from the country of Holland. This windmill was purchased for $2800 and […]

2024 Wisconsin Dells and Mackinac Island

8/16/2024 to 8/29/2024 As we headed to Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin we stayed briefly in Fargo, North Dakota and Carlton, Minnesota which is close to Duluth. Our overnight stay was at the Black Bear Casino Resort. No, we didn’t win. We’ll have to go back to explore more of this state, but for now Minnesota is checked […]

2024 Theodore Roosevelt National Park

8/5/2024 to 8/16/2024 After leaving Dawson Creek BC Canada, we stayed in Edmonton, Alberta Canada for a few days. Then it was finally time to cross the border at Sweet Grass, Montana to be back in the lower 48. To be honest, we were a motorhome divided. I wasn’t ready, but Jeff was starting to get […]

2024 Dawson Creek BC Canada

7/29/2024 to 8/5/2024 We made it to Dawson Creek BC Canada! Originally, we were only supposed to stay for 3 nights. As RV’ers we know plans are never in stone and change frequently. Because we had extra nights imbedded in our schedule to get to Great Falls Montana, we extended our stay at Mile 0 campground […]

2024 Travel from Alaska to Yukon Territory to BC Canada

7/22/2024 to 7/29/2024 There are several opportunities to do overnight stays in roadside pullouts along the roads in Alaska and Canada. I was leery of doing that because there were so many unknowns! We made reservations along the way to Alaska until one evening when we weren’t able to find a place. We were in the […]

2024 Seward and Homer Alaska

7/8/2024 to 7/22/2024 Seward Alaska is another favorite of ours. On our first day we took a ride along Resurrection Bay and found the Lowell Creek Waterfall and a sea otter enjoying life as it was floating in the bay. Another day we also were able to catch another sea otter hanging around the boats as […]

2024 Palmer, Anchorage and Glacier View Alaska

June 22, 2024, to July 8, 2024 The highlight of our Palmer stay was our 2-hour helicopter adventure with 3 landings. Jeff insisted that I sit in the front seat which was like flying in a bubble with no obstructions. I could see the entire landscape unfolding right in front of me. The most impressive of […]

2024 Valdez, Alaska

June 15, 2024 to June 22, 2024 While we thought Denali National Park was our favorite, it was quickly replaced by the port town of Valdez, Alaska. At every turn on the ride to Valdez, the sight was spectacular. We had taken so many pictures on the way and while we were there! I finally narrowed […]
