Well, we plan to leave our homestead here in North Central Illinois within the next 4 weeks or so, just HOPING it will NOT be snowing !! Been a dreadful winter here...
When Hubby and I got married almost 24 years ago, he informed me that he did not "Do" tents, so our first camper was a slide in truck camper, then over the years, we have tried 2 Old Winnebago Motor Homes, and a Travel trailer, till we finally decided that a 5th wheel would be the best "Fit" for us.
We finally settled on a 2007 Cardinal 5th Wheel by Forest River. It is SO comfy for us and we have really been enjoying adding our own touches to it, inside and out.. We have lightened the load in our 5th Wheel and Honey has been inspecting and doing all the "Guy stuff" that is required to a rig before any journey begins!
We have put more than 65,000 miles on our rig in these past 7 years and have been to 30 States so far in our Cozy Home on Wheels!
Our journey will begin in a few short weeks and we will be heading through the Beautiful Country to our North, Canada, to our Wonderful state of Alaska for this upcoming trip! And "On The Way Home'' from Alaska, we will be going back through Canada, and down into Washington, Oregon and California, (we get to add THOSE states to our State Map! )"WE" decided that those last 3 remaining states on our map of Western states were going to be "On The Way Home", due to the fact that we will be finishing up this 6 month trip with a continued journey down to Albuquerque, NM for the Balloon Festival! Although we have been to ABQ several times, we have never been there during Balloon Fest ! Really looking forward to the Fest as well as the opportunity to see our friends who are in our Cardinal RV Club group, for our Southwest Rally.. We have SO much fun at our Rallies, and to date we have attended 14 Rallies!
So, if you are interested, Check Back occasionally to follow our progress on our Great Alaskan Journey! I will try to get pictures added as we travel along on our journey.
