On January 1st, 2023, Bailey and I hit the road for the next nine months. Our first stop of the year was at Thousand Trails Lake Tawakoni in Point, Texas. This stop was just an hour east of Dallas. From here, we visited Dallas multiple times and we made a visit to Arkansas and Louisiana too.

Mackinac Island, Michigan is a unique island. This island in Lake Huron has outlawed motorized vehicles in an effort to keep the natural environment intact and healthy. Though we visited during the offseason and nothing but a bike rental business was open, we still truly enjoyed our time, maybe even more so than we would have during the busy season.

An unexpected detour on our way to Sault Saint Marie from the Lower Peninsula of Michigan, Tahquamenon Falls is a beautiful outdoor experience in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The beauty of the landscape and the natural sound of the falls and nature is something to truly love.

It may not be the most common time of year for someone to visit Alabama, but this was the time of year that fit Bailey and me the most. We were definitely surprised in a lot of ways with what the state had to offer and as you might expect, I took a few photographs of the experience. Here’s the story.

Kenisee Lake is an RV campground in Jefferson, Ohio. Jefferson is in northeast Ohio just an hour east of Cleveland, Ohio, and an hour southwest of Erie, Pennsylvania. Liam and Bailey spent a couple of weeks at this campground during the autumn season of 2022. This is the photo gallery from that time spent there.

Burlington, Vermont is a city in northern Vermont, not far from the border of Canada and the United States. The city sits on Lake Champlain which is a huge body of water by lake standards. Across the water is the state of New York and the Adirondack Mountains. This photo gallery features photographs from my first visit to this unique city.

What would you do if you had just one day to spend in Southwest Michigan? This area has Kalamazoo, Grand Rapids, Benton Harbor, St. Joseph, and tons of beautiful nature. Bailey Audrey and I had one day to experience this area until after June this is our story.

After living across the street for nearly a year, Bailey and I finally took Maxwell the Golden Doodle to the OPPD Arboretum. It came at the perfect time, however, Maxwell was getting a little stir-crazy being indoors all the time. He had an absolute blast and so did Bailey and I.
