Yellowstone Trip 2021
Our long trip this year was to Yellowstone National Park which we did in July. What a great trip, on our own, renewal and wonderful places. We planned to make Fargo the first day out but settled for Baraboo, WI staying at a Cracker Barrel. Staying was fine and we ate our breakfast there. We were able to use our bump out so sleeping was fine. I would recommend Cracker Barrel for one night stays, just make sure to call ahead.
The next morning we headed out to our next stop, another "one-nighter" on the way in Casselton, ND. We stayed at Governor's Inn
RV'ing 2022
We already did our "shakedown" trip at our usual Rock Cut State Park outside of Rockford IL. Everything in the camper worked as it should. I had a breathing issue with my allergies and went to the emergency room about 1:00 am. After a quick check in, the wait was at two hours, I felt better and we headed back to the campground.
Our big trip for 2022 starts this Friday, heading east all the way to Arcadia National Park. Most of our stops this years are touristy things: Niagara Falls, Baseball Hall of Fame, Daryl's House, Bethel Center for the Arts (Woodstock) and ending with the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame.
The trip is still over 2,000 miles, but slightly shorter then last year's trip to Yellowstone NP. With gas and diesel fuel pricing rocketing skywards, we will paying a premium this year. DEF, needed for diesel engines is now in short supply and fortunately we have a box of it in the car we will tow.
We will provide updates as the trips gets going!

Morrison-Rockwood State Park June 2021
We took a short, two hour drive, out to Morrison-Rockwood State Park for the weekend. While the weather was hot (90 degree plus) we found this state park very pleasant. The park is about fifteen minutes commute from Clinton, IA. After hearing how all campgrounds are packed across the country, this was about half full. Site #46 was clean and well shaded as most of the sites.
Driving up the streets behind the Victorian homes shows nice, suburban homes. This weekend was Garage Sale weekend with man homes with items out for sale.
We ate lunch at Family Chef, which was packed for lunch. The folks there are friendly and this seemed where "everyone knows your name" is for real.
