Eleven to go

Well now that our New England trip is completed, we will soon get serious about planning our major RV trip for 2025, with 11 state stickers still missing on our map.  These represent the northwestern states: Idaho Iowa Minnesota Montana Nebraska North Dakota Oregon South Dakota Washington Wisconsin Wyoming

Hershey, PA area

This was planned to be our final stop before getting home on October 31st.  However, we amended our journey to join Sebastien’s family and friends for their annual “friendsgiving” camping reunion.  So we ended up staying here for 2 nights.  I-81 is the preferred road for Canadian “snowbirds” driving down to go spend the harshest… Continue reading Hershey, PA area

We ended the day with one final lobster dinner at Trenton… Continue reading Acadia National Park
