Vermont
OH OH… I knew this was going to happen…. as soon as we enter the New England states; their resemblance to the United Kingdom would take us directly to the geography of the country that occupies a special place in our hearts! Scotland. And here’s a little story: I was 12 or 13 years old…

Ohio
The navigation logbook says ” making progress in slow pace in search for the North Atlantic” Having done Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan, we hit Ohio next. Our pass through Ohio was all about state parks and nature. We decided to find a campground near Mansfield which would give us easy access to pleasant Hill Lake…

Michigan
So!! we have made it to the state number 29 in our count, Michigan!! Some residents call it “the Mitten State” which resembles a hand wearing a mitten. That is if you look at the Lower Peninsula; the Upper Peninsula is something different, well known by its spectacular geography. Having left Wisconsin behind, we took…

Wisconsin
The second state in our American Expedition #4 is Wisconsin, well known for its geography, culture and ranking among the top 10 states in the country. But, I have to confess, we should have dedicated more time to this visit which ended up being rather short and this is because we faced some delays in…

Illinois

Missouri
And we have arrived at the last state of this trip known as American Expedition #3, Missouri!!. The next state is Arkansas but we will be there for a very different reason: the storage unit that we found is in Conway AR and if you remember, it is the town where it all started 2…

Iowa
It looks like Iowa is giving us the slow pace for a transition between the many many miles driven on previous states and the beginning of preparations for the end of this American Expedition #3 and subsequent hibernation!!. Not much happened in this small state; we decided to make only one stop at the state…

Minnesota
Well, welcome to the first state that touches one of the Great Lakes of North America … Minnesota. A few of my RV friends who are traveling the south at the moment are telling us that we are fortunate with the weather as it is too hot down south; the temperature in the northern states…

North Dakota
One of the states we visited last year was South Dakota; that was really nice… so it is natural to assume that North Dakota was going to be also something similar and it didn’t disappoint!! I always heard about The Badlands of ND. Not surprisingly we kind of know why this area of ND is…

Montana
At the moment of the publication of this article, the town of Jasper (Alberta, Canada) has been engulfed in flames due to wildfires originated by lightning and thunderstorm. It is heartbreaking to hear this bad news of the destruction of such a beautiful city and surrounding areas of the park. Our thoughts are with the…
