We had been boondocking for a few days so we headed back to the Wilderness resort. Holly and Olivia went in for another day of waterparks while I stayed in Rover to catch up on my writing. Afterwards we all used the shower facilities to clean up before returning to the parking lot next to…

June 29-30, 2021 Taking it easy
We had a pretty lazy day. We slept in late and felt bad about all the nights we have spent at Cracker Barrels for free, using their bathrooms but only eating their once so we decided to have breakfast at the Cracker Barrel. It was quite busy with a line out the door and we…

June 26-28, 2021 More Fun in Wisconsin Dells!
Our toilet base had arrived so we installed the toilet again, disassembled it again and put the new base on. By this time we were old hands at taking apart the toilet so no problems. When we went to reinstall the toilet the it was a bit wobbly so we tried tightening the bolts holding…

June 24-25, 2021 Kalahari Water park
While researching things to do I found a program called Passport for Savings which had increasing discounts depending on how many activity tickets purchased at the same time.

June 22-23, 2021 Plumbing Problems!
Our first day in Wisconsin Dells was spent at the RV park, catching up on homeschooling. Our homeschooling schedule needs to be very flexible since we drive on some days and like to go to attractions on weekdays when it is less crowded. Country Road’s RV park is technically a 55+ park but they allowed…

The next day we went to a local park for the day. It was a beautiful day, mid 70’s and sunny. So glad we didn’t head west and fry in the 110 degree weather. We spent the entire day at the park before heading back to the Cracker Barrel for the night. The next day…

June 15-16 2021 We had been on the move for over 1,700 miles in the last two weeks and it was almost 100 degrees out so we took a rest day and stayed in Rover all day with the AC running. There was just nothing outside that was worth going out in the heat. We…

June 14, 2021, Actually we ARE in Kansas now.
The rest area had a welcome center with friendly staff and a large number of tourist brochures for Kansas. Looking over our options I could see why Kansas is not a big tourist destination. Other than the typical zoos and museums the only attractions of note were things like the world’s largest ball of twine,…

June 13, 2021 We Go to Prison!
On our way to the Zip Line yesterday we had passed the Canon City Prison Museum. It seemed to be something unique, educational and at $10 per adult, much cheaper thing to do so decided to take a look. A former women’s prison the Prison Museum was small, only housing 40 inmates when it was…
