  • White Sands National Park

    Feb 4th, 2025 White Sands National Park, New Mexico, was a place that made us grateful for our trip three times in the same day — we did not expect it to be so beautiful!! In the Dominican Republic, you have those stunning white sand beaches. Here at White Sands, there’s no water, but the…

  • Carlsbad Caverns

    Feb 2nd – Feb 3rd, 2025 Carlsbad Caverns National Park was a recommendation from another Canadian that we met at the campground in Marfa, a retired professional photographer that visited Marfa once and ended up spending his winters there for the past 15 years. He is not the only Canadian we met that visited a…

  • Marfa

    Jan 31st – Feb 1st, 2025 Marfa, in Romanian (spelled “marfă”) means “goods” or in Romanian slang “it’s cool/ este marfă” 🙂 Well, Marfa was “marfă” 🙂 It is an original place with its own artsy vibe. We planned our itinerary based on recommendations from people we know or we met and try to stop…

  • One of those days

    You might think our trip is all “milk and honey”—everything great all the time, with vacations, campfires every evening, and so on. That’s one part — the nice part. But there are also days when we’re tired and just don’t feel like doing anything, just resting. There are days when we move: packing takes about…

  • San Antonio

    Jan 24 – 26th, 2025 San Antonio was a nice surprise! Our friends from Houston highly recommended the River Walk and told us where to get the best margarita ever… and it did not disappoint. We arrived in San Antonio on a Friday afternoon. Our campground was located 15 minutes from downtown, so after setting…

  • Houston

    Jan 13-22nd, 2025 It might seem like we stayed in Houston for a long time, but in reality, it was just Meeko, our truck, and our trailer that stayed longer— not us. As we mentioned in our previous posts, the whole reason for rushing from Florida to Houston was to leave Meeko with a friend…

  • Isla Blanca Park

    Jan 9-13th, 2025 After two long days on the road, with a stop in Corpus Christi, we finally reached Isla Blanca Park on South Padre Island. We were welcomed by beautiful sunshine but also a cold wind — it felt like just a few degrees above zero. Fortunately, we also had some warm days while…

  • Fort Anahuac Park

    Jan 6-7th, 2025 After a couple of nights spent in two different places on the road, we got close to Houston, Texas. Since we weren’t planning to stay long this time, we decided to boondock at Fort Anahuac Park, just east of Houston. We arrived right before sunset and, to our surprise, had the entire…

  • Tallahassee

    Jan 3-4th, 2025 At the end of 2024, we became grandparents! While still in Florida, we started planning how to make a quick trip back to Montreal to see our grandson. We could have taken a plane from Tampa, but after discussing with a friend of mine in Houston, she offered to take care of…

  • Disney’s Fort Wilderness

    Dec 6-11th, 2024 We don’t want to make our trip about campgrounds. It’s not about avoiding publicity for them — it’s about the fact that our journey is meant to be more than just campgrounds. But this one was special, and it deserves its own post… because the people made it magical. The campground was…
