We took to the water today to explore the Crystal Coast at a different angle. We booked a tour through Paddle NC and shoved off from Hammock Beach State Park. The four of us fit into two tandem kayaks and we teamed up in our old ski lift partnerships. Jack also pointed out that the […]

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
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.

Heading down to our first overnight enroute to Camp Lejeune, NC. We had reservations at Weldon Mills Distillery in Weldon, NC for a free overnight of camping in their parking lot. Side note: Weldon, NC is the Rockfish Capital of the World. Too bad we aren’t staying long enough for Jack to fish. South of Richmond,
Today we checked out of the house we have lived in for five years. The house that saw our kids grow into teenagers (ish) and form some of the closest friendships one can have in life. The check-out was something I have been stressing about since before we gave notice a month ago. We decided
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
