A short one today! Living in a van, I couldn’t stop at the RV / MH museum. As a bonus, they also let people camp in the parking lot, which was a good little bonus! The museum was better than I was expecting! They had RVs, camper trailers, and even vans dating back to the…

On my way to the next National Park, I stopped at a trail called the Ferns and Lakes trail! A fun little hike through some marshlands, ponds, two lakes, and even a turtle! There was some sort of birding event ongoing, but my section of the trail was mostly empty! As things have been warming…

Cuyahoga National Park A long day of waterfalls and slot canyons! Nice to see an area that used to be an industrial wasteland turned back into something green and beautiful! It’s nice to see that it IS possible to make a positive change for the environment and the benefits of protected land. I didn’t go…

After the national aviary, I had some extra time to explore an old but ever-so-cool Lanternmans Mill in Ohio. Went on a short but fun hike around the river and the mill. It was my first hike since heading north that really started to feel like our forest back home! Missed me some pine trees!…

It was near Pittsburgh, so I had to stop at the National Aviary. Love me some little birds! Pittsburgh was such a cool city too loved just driving down the streets. Coming through the tunnel into the city was scenic! The National Aviary was everything I wanted it to be. I really liked the open…

Spent the day driving and hiking/geocaching around this area called the Devil’s Nose and the Devil’s Pond! Cool little area tucked behind this small forested neighborhood. Short little loop that is connected to the Appalachian trail. Great weather and some fun and easy caches. The Devil’s pond had a rope swing and looked like a…

Shenandoah National Park! Mostly a driving park for me! Or at least my favorite part besides maybe the vistas was driving through it. Started at one end and drove all the way to the other end! Did 1 hike to a water fall and 2 to different vistas / lookouts! Was really windy and the…

Another day, another Natural bridge! Seems this little stretch of land is full of natural bridges! I will say this one has been my favorite! Small fee to get in but the trail was bursting with awesome plants and creatures! Really got a massive screenshot into the ecosystem with this one hike! Mixing it up…

New River Gorge National Park Featuring our newest National Park: The New River Gorge! Became a national park in 2020 and is known best for its white water rafting and rock climbing! It also features one of the oldest rivers on Earth, as well as what used to be the largest single-span arch bridge! I…
