We left Russ & Sunna’s in State College, PA just before 8am. It really was a bittersweet day and I think we were both in denial that our amazing trip was coming to an end. We definitely had the last day scrunchies, a bit with each other, with the charging stations and the traffic! I […]
Day thirty three – The last day :-( Read More »
Bill and Russ went mountain biking at Coopers Gap. Sunna and I went to The Arboretum at Penn State. It’s free to the public (unheard of!) and is soooo beautiful and a wonderfully relaxing place to walk around. The girls chilled out in the middle of the day while we waited for the boys to
It was another long day of driving, which totals 4 this week, so I think we were both a bit over it!! Bill is champing at the bit as he hasn’t ridden since Saturday!! We drove from Dayton, OH to State College, PA. We crossed over the Ohio river thinking we were going into Pennsylvania
We left St. Louis and drove to the Rivian factory on Rivian Motorway in Normal, Illinois. We took Jade back to where she was made, Bill was very excited! When we walked in they had a board welcoming us “Hi, Bill & Victoria, Welcome to Normal” we felt so special! Ben, showed us around the
I forgot to mention yesterday that that total Rivian’s seen is up to 19, I won round three of the alphabet game (competitive much?!) and we saw a North Dakota license plate, Hawaii you are the last one standing! The KOA campsite was close to the train tracks and after 10 pm about 4 or
“We’re not in Kansas any more Toto!” We left Salina, KS this morning to head to Granite City, Illinois which is just north of St. Louis. Things we went past today in Kansas: Some corn, a few cows, a bit more corn, the town of Abilene where Dwight D. Eisenhower was from, Kansas State University

Today we went whitewater river rafting with Performance Tours down Browns Canyon on the Arkansas River. The last time Bill and I did river rafting it was pre-children and up in Maine so ages ago and a slightly chillier adventure! Today it was lovely and sunny and we had four great raft mates Blair, Sam,
We had a pretty chill day today. Started off with breakfast at the B&B…..I have to say I was slightly disappointed with the whole place. It was a beautiful house in a lovely location, but we didn’t see the owners when we arrived and barely saw them at breakfast…very impersonal and not what you pay
I woke up this morning and everything ached from yesterday’s fun on the river! I think kneeling on the paddle board for that long wasn’t such a good idea…oh well! On our way out of Moab we went to Arches National Park, it’s known as the site of more than 2,000 natural sandstone arches. More
