West Beach





Yesterday we went to the visitor center after our typical morning of coffee and hanging out.  We also received a call about our interview last week.  Looks like we may be residents of Montana for 5 months in 22’. After the visitor center, we headed west for Gary, IN and West Beach.  We passed a Bass Pro and marked its location.  

Our America the Beautiful pass didn’t work at West Beach so it was $6 to get in.  We decided to walk the kids down to the beach with us.  It was busy right by the stairs, but we found a spot to the east to let the pups in.  They both drank so much lake water.  Thankfully they didn’t get sick.  

After the beach we stopped by Bass Pro and found some Black Rifle Coffee.  Great company and coffee, if you see some, give it a try.  You can also order it online.  BP also had a good amount of ammo, just not the stuff I need.  

We came back to the park and walked the dogs.  We met a couple from California who have a Lance that we hadn’t seen before.  It’s a dual slide 2155, great layout and nice set up.  Lance should bring them back.  

Katy went and got a few Indiana lotto tickets and we played some games.  I got worked over pretty good.  Out of 5 total games, I won one game of Sequence.  Yahtzee was a bust.  We watched a movie on Prime and then cashed in for the night.

The End of 24’

 As 2024 comes to a close, we are in a cabin near Show Low AZ.  This area is beautiful at first glance and we will be here for a week.  It reminds us of Bend/Sisters, but it’s way smaller.  This is the first time Katy has been out of the RV since 12/1/20.  We are looking forward to exploring this area.  We hope everyone had a great Christmas and that you all have a happy New Year!   We took a trip up to Tucson and stayed at Catalina State Park.  It was a great trip and we enjoyed the lights at the botanical gardens.  The state park is great and really spread out.  We also had a seRV event with Full Time Families, where we made cards for the kids and families at Ronald McDonald House.  It was an amazing event and we enjoyed seeing old friends and making new ones.  The kids who participated were awesome, they helped us set up and tear down.   The next day we co-hosted another event in Sierra Vista.  We partnered with Wr...

North Again?

Well, a lot has happened in the past month.     2025 is starting off pretty big.     We had a great time in the Show Low, Pine Top and Lakeside area.     Katy and I stayed in a one room cabin with the pups and it was fun, but after a few days we missed having our own stuff and our bed.     The area is cool and we had fun exploring Greer which was like driving down to the Metolius.    We went up to the ski hill the same day.    There were 1 or 2 runs open of man made snow and about 400 cars worth of people sharing the hill.    Not our jam.    The Pinetop Brewing Co was a fun stop, they have great beers and good food.    Beer brewed at 7,000’.   We took a tour of Petrified Forest NP and really like it.    It is a mixture of Blue Basin, The Painted Hills and the Badlands with a spattering of Fossilized Trees.    It’s worth getting out and taking the short loops in the par...

Want to go to Skagway?

Image
Friday we drove from Teslin Lake to Whitehorse Yukon.    We got on the road pretty early and were surprised to not see any wildlife along the way.    First stop was the laundromat.    Two XL washers and three dryers later and we were in business.    We met another full time couple doing laundry, who are traveling to Juneau for the summer.   Barry said they had a 5 hour ferry ride from Skagway to Juneau.    We then got to chatting about Skagway and the fact it was only two hours away.    I had been looking at it on maps but didn’t realize we were that close.    We parted ways and headed to Woodcutter’s Blanket Bar and Brewery for lunch.    Good beer…pass on the food.    While at the bar, I suggested we head to Skagway for a night or two as we will not have full hookups in Fairbanks until 5/4 ish.    I then talked myself out of it and Katy said let’s go for it.   We book...
