Of Sea Dogs, Portholes and Portland (Maine, that is)
Since we decided to get off the road and park the RV in New Hampshire for the entire Summer we have been doing a lot of White Mountain and Lakes District outdoorsy type of stuff. You know, hiking, fishing, kayaking and such.

Northern Maine. It’s Not Bar Harbor, It’s Better
It’s just over two hours from our camp in Quebec to Jackman, Maine. Two hours but a world apart. Twenty miles over the border and we’ve traded French, urban, chic for North Woods back county. We arrived at our campground

Chute Montmorency: Size Does Matter
When we travel in the RV it’s always a decision in terms of what we stop to see. We will scour the tour books and internet sites to find out what there is to see in an area and go

Vive Quebec City…One of Our Favorites
Set high above the St. Lawrence River, Quebec City started as a fur trading port early in the 1600’s. Today, it has to be one of the world’s most beautiful cities. At least we would vote it one of the

Lac St. Jean, Quebec: Je Ne Parles Pas Anglais
When we decided to visit Quebec we wanted to see more than just Montreal and Quebec City, so Lac St. Jean seemed a likely destination. This large lake was north of these two cities, deep into the Province, and far

Close Encounters of the Bear-able kind
New Hampshire has lots of wildlife. Most of the time they keep to themselves, hiding in the woods. If you get out early, or late at night you might run into them. Literally. Moose, in particular, can be found just

Trying Out Our French in Montreal, Quebec
We so loved our tour of Ontario, and the time we spent in the Maritimes, we thought it was high time we visited the Province nestled between the two, Quebec. We were visiting friends in New York, and it’s only

Who Goes Over Niagara Falls in a Barrel?
The sound, the fury, the power. Standing at the very top of Horseshoe falls, peering through the mist into the abyss, a vertical drop of 165 feet to a shelf of jagged rocks, it’s easy to become mesmerized by the ongoing

Shabby or Classy? Campground Choices
Picking a campground is pretty straightforward. Traveling the Red Roads in our RV has landed us in hundreds of campgrounds. I can say with complete confidence that not all of them are created equally. Some campgrounds are spacious, well maintained

Leaving Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario with a restocked supply of vodka, we headed for Parry Sound. We would need that vodka. Our drive took us along the North Channel of Lake Huron then South along the Georgian Bay on highway

The Not So Easy Big Easy
You can plan just about everything you need for a road trip, except the weather. We arrived at Fairview Riverside RV in Madisonville, Louisiana just as a cold front came through bringing 40 degree temperatures and driving rain. The park

The Redneck Riviera
I was trying to remember the book I read that originally introduced me to the term the “Redneck Riviera” to describe the beach areas of Florida’s panhandle. It was a long time ago. I remember it was a detective series

Gi Chi Gamiing Petroglyphs and $50 vodka

It’s a Doozy!
It’s a doozy, meaning it’s bizarre or extraordinary. Do you know where that term originated? The Deusenberg was a fabulous car in the 1920’s and 1930’s and when people saw them they’d say, “It’s a Doozy.” I happen to know
