      • Jekyll Island
        10/31/09
        We left Hunter Island and headed farther south to Jekyll Island in Georgia. This island is definitely more touristy. You even have to pay a $5 entry fee (they call it a parking fee...) There are bike trails all around the island, so after getting a site we hopped on the bikes. We went around the

        10/28/09
        We decided to keep heading down south a little and check out Hunter Island State Park. It was a longer drive through town than we expected it to be and the park is pretty packed, but I think it was worth it. The mix of trees and the general landscape of the island are amazing. We walked down the

        The spot in Sumter National Forest was great. Unfortunately, we were not getting enough sun and it was raining yesterday, so our battery was running extremely low. Before we left we checked out one other road in the forest that looked promising. We didn't find any other spot where we would h

        Finally! We finally found a proper National Forest.
        We stayed in the Walmart parking lot for two nights so we could get a bunch of work done. We left yesterday, early afternoon and headed towards Union, SC in search of a YMCA. That one was apparently closed on Sundays. The whole town was

        We left the National Forest in the morning and kept on heading south. We made it to Johnson City, TN and found a Walmart to sleep at. We bought a little netbook type thing at the Best Buy in town also. Now we use that while driving and at night (watching stuff online before bed) to help conserve

        After leaving Daniel Boone National Forest, we just headed straight for Pikeville. We stayed in the Walmart parking lot that night. It was cold. It was down to the mid 30s. On Monday, we went to the YMCA to work out. The little one in Winchester was much better, I think. This one was larger, b

        10/18/09
        We left Winchester after running a couple errands and stopping for lunch again at that yummy sandwich shop and headed towards Daniel Boone National Forest. Our hope was to be able to park somewhere off the road and stay for a couple days. Unfortunately, it looked pretty controlled. You must buy a

        We were between Lexington and Winchester when the RV started to sound like it was grinding and it gradually got louder. Then the temperature started to spike. Since Joe has had the engine seize from it getting too hot before he pulled over and shut it off. When he opened the hood there was oil, o

      • Lots of Driving
        10/15/09
        We drove basically all day yesterday. We stopped at a Walmart in southern Indianapolis and stayed there the night. We started out this morning and decided to stop for lunch in Louisville, KY if there was a good vegetarian place. We ended up finding a restaurant called the Zen Garden that was comp

      • Finally!
        10/14/09
        We finally left yesterday at around 4pm. Our plan was to leave right after we got the mail because we were waiting for a package. Of course that package didn't show up.... So, we decided it probably wasn't going to and just left anyway.
        It's a bit chilly, but we are working

      • Leaving Tomorrow
        10/12/09
        We finally have the patches and fixes done in the RV. Of course in the meantime it decided to not only get very cold for fall, but snow too. We are waiting on a package that should come today, then we'll be basically set to go. We're leaving in the morning tomorrow since we'll have

        So, our hope was to leave very soon. Last night we tested the water in the RV. Half filled the tank and ran water through the faucet. The main goal of this was to see if the lights worked (this RV has a gauge that lights up to show us how much water is in the tank) and to see if it was stinky or
