The Smokin’ Gun

The tire continues to lose air while we are parked in the campground and it is now time to do something about it.  Chris took it off the RV and grabbed a spray bottle of soapy water to see if he could figure out the origin of the leak.   Ah ha! The smoking gun! Or […]

Total Lunar Eclipse

While traveling we have plans to complete an astronomy curriculum. Therefore, it was a perfect coincidence that our first camping spot was a great location to watch the longest lunar eclipse in a decade. I kept everyone up late and at 1030pm we tromped out to the beach to watch the Moon move into the

FUN DAY IN SWANSBORO

We attended a really awesome pirate festival in Swansboro on Saturday. There were people dressed up like pirates, live music, a puppet show and a pirate invasion.

Moving Out

We decided to move ourselves into a storage unit of our choosing in order to slowly pack up and have greater control over our ultimate timeline. This decision also leaves us still able to use the move that is paid for by the military upon retirement. Maybe we will use that if we find our

Preparing the House

Tomorrow we have our final walk through with our leasing agent for a damage inspection. We have been working all week at not only moving out of the house and into the RV, but cleaning and readying the house for the next tenants. A friend lent me her carpet shampooer, another friend lent me her
