Two Months of RV Life.
Is living in a RV full-time worth it? Is this a pipe-dream and everyone is lying? I have no clue, I do know I probably overspent. I KNOW I travelled too quick. In the last 60 days, I have learned quite a bit. Read more to make sure you don’t make the same mistakes.
Route 66: Small Towns and Hidden Gems
I traveled through Illinois and checked off a few gems along Route 66. There are a number of stops along the mother road to see and I tried to stop at as many as I could.
Route 66: Re-Discovering Abe in Illinois
There are aspects of history we learn from our family. Stories that have been passed down through generations and letters kept through the decades. Abe Lincoln is a part of my story & my family history.
Route 66: Magical Missouri & Discovering the Ozarks!
I discovered one of my favorite places to stop along Route 66 in Missouri; Gary Turner rebuilt the replica of the 1930s filling station he built-in 2005. Not only is the collection amazing, it’s almost like time has stopped.
Route 66: My Worst Fear Living Full-time in an RV
Worst fear. Stuck. Ignition would not turn over. The automatic step didn't move. Not sure what was going on. Had lights, AUX batteries had power. Nothing worked. No click, No turnover, nothing.
Route 66: Texas Devil's Rope History & Disney Inspiration
On the East side of Texas, I decided to drive the original section of Route 66. I highly recommend stopping in Stroud, Texas for lunch at the Rock Cafe and driving yourself to a classic diner in Shamrock to walk back in time.
