Itinerary...


Here goes the first post of our travel blog. We will be updating this blog as often as we can to keep our dear family and friends posted on our adventures.
We are leaving in less than two weeks from now and the plans seem to be falling into place. With the exception of Yellowstone (impossible to get through on the phone) our campsites have been booked and the route has been established.
We were recently given a 2 hour RV lesson on the good ol' Minnie Winnie that we will call home on our trip and have pages of notes on how to do everything from use the outside entertainment system (yeah!) to how to empty the sewer (eww!).
There isn't much left to do now but pack it up and get on the road.
Wish us luck and good weather...
