The RoVing Coles: July 2011

http://rovingcoles.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html

Come travel with us as we rove around the country in our RV. Monday, July 25, 2011. Nashville, By Way of Ohio (Again). We headed south out of Elk Rapids and spent the first night in a Wal-Mart parking lot on the west side of Toledo, OH. This became something of a turning point in the trip. It got HOT! It’s STILL hot as I write this from North Carolina.). We did go out to lunch, though. We drove west to Celina and found a restaurant just across the street from the lake. It was a neat setting and I...We pl...

The RoVing Coles: June 2011

http://rovingcoles.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html

Come travel with us as we rove around the country in our RV. Monday, June 27, 2011. Our next stop was Lenoir, NC, in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Our campground was in those mountains, outside of town. It was a gorgeous location. All the RVs were dwarfed by the tall, tall trees. There was a small babbling brook just below and to the left of the wood deck in this picture. Most of the sites had wood decks – it was hard to choose a site. We’d been in 90 degree weather since well before l...

The RoVing Coles: And, So It Begins

http://rovingcoles.blogspot.com/2013/03/and-so-it-begins.html

Come travel with us as we rove around the country in our RV. Friday, March 15, 2013. And, So It Begins. Once again that old adage (it’s always something) has reared its ugly head. But at least this time, it wasn’t a BIG thing. We were packed and ready to pull out of our site on Wednesday when I noticed that the steps had not retracted. Whaaaa? Were they tired from not being used for 6 weeks? So instead of leaving at 8:30am, it was closer to 11am before we got on the road to start our big adventure. The r...

The RoVing Coles: Summer Update – Part 1

http://rovingcoles.blogspot.com/2012/07/summer-update-part-1.html

Come travel with us as we rove around the country in our RV. Thursday, July 26, 2012. Summer Update – Part 1. Yes, I know – it’s long overdue. I haven’t been motivated, primarily because we haven’t done a lot that was news-worthy. We aren’t traveling around like some other summers, nor are we doing a great deal of sight-seeing. We do have some pictures to share and I’ll try to get you caught up on at least part of the last month and a half. There is a pond behind our campsite that reported had fish in it...

Come travel with us as we rove around the country in our RV. Saturday, June 09, 2012. Let’s Get This Summer Started! It’s amazing that it’s been a week and a half already since we left home in the RV. Time flies when you’re having fun, that’s for sure. 8221; he came quickly. We decided that it wasn’t smart to put down any of the jacks in case we had trouble getting them to come back up. Fortunately, our site was pretty level, so it wasn’t a major problem. Here’s what a healthy jack should look like.
