  • Jersey Shore, Gettysburg, Philadelphia, Virginia, And South Carolina

    Jersey Shore, Gettysburg, Philadelphia, Virginia, And South Carolina

    Another procrastinators post with a quick 5 state update… After NY we downgraded to the Jersey Shore. The MTV show “Jersey Shore” did a good job polishing that turd. It was pretty run down and had clientele to match. We had one of the “nicer” hotels in the area. Other people seemed to know this…

  • Wisconsin To Michigan

    Wisconsin To Michigan

    It’s been awhile and we are a little behind on updates. We ended up going to the Harley Davidson Museum before leaving Wisconsin. They have a large collection from their history and we were able to roll some tandem scooter action. We headed out to Michigan and couldn’t find a room for over 100 miles.…

  • Milwaukee And The Old Pabst Blue Ribbon Brewery

    Milwaukee And The Old Pabst Blue Ribbon Brewery

    We made it to Milwaukee. Spent two nights in the old Pabst Blue Ribbon Brewery building. One of the buildings is now an amazing hotel that has kept much of the history in tact (see the original copper kettles from the 1890’s). Can’t think of a better place to stay in Milwaukee. We were lucky…

  • Wisconsin

    Wisconsin

    Went to Wisconsin and ate some cheese. Thought it would be cool to see the cows that the milk came from so it was off to a tour at the Hincheley’s farm. We not only got to milk a cow, and see one pee, but we also were able to feed and hangout with other…

  • Mt Rushmore, Summit Brewery, And Not Much More…

    Mt Rushmore, Summit Brewery, And Not Much More…

    Made it to Mt Rushmore. The picture says it all. Funny billboards out here… one of them pictured below on the way to Minnesota. Everything seems bigger out here, especially the chairs. Went to Summit Brewery in St. Paul, MN. The beer was OK… the tour was bleh. Steve still managed to find some entertainment…

  • Shoshone Lodge Near Yellowstone Park

    Shoshone Lodge Near Yellowstone Park

    Arrived at the East entrance of Yellowstone Park and made Shoshone Lodge our home for two days. Hiked scared for 6 miles in grizzly bear territory. We each held on to a can of bear spray and looked backwards anytime we stepped on a twig. There were grizzly bear (and black bear) tracks everywhere and…

  • Dropped Off Little Russ And Pointed The Car Towards Wyoming

    Dropped Off Little Russ And Pointed The Car Towards Wyoming

    Little Russ you will be missed. Left you in Spokane but there will always be an extra seat in the wagon if you decide to meet up later down the road. Drove a lot after Spokane. Hit up the Glacier National Park in Montana. Loading some pictures but they don’t do the area justice. Crazy…

  • Road Trip Update… Up To The Canada Border…

    Road Trip Update… Up To The Canada Border…

    We haven’t posted in quite a while as we have been having too much fun or in areas without internet. Last time we posted anything was 6 days ago while in Portland, Oregon. We rafted on the Deschutes River… good times. In Seattle we ate at the 5 Point Cafe (see menu pic with funny…

  • Day 2 Of The Road Trip

    Day 2 Of The Road Trip

    The 2nd Day of the road trip started off in Grants Pass, OR where we took the car to the shop for a non-working heater.  The shop we took it to was super amazing.  Props to Kelly’s Automotive!  If you are in the area and have car troubles look them up.  This is a bit…

  • Day One Completed

    Day One Completed

    We had a late start, but did pack the essentials like a cardboard cat, bear spray, night vision goggles, random animal masks, zebra snuggie, driving arm sun protectors and a captains hat to name a few.  The one thing that didn’t make it was the push bumper for Vicky which is really sad but we…
