Meet Zoodles (Zodes for short) - Shes 100% Australasian Shepard - Black, White, and Copper point colors.Pronounced [zoh-dles] Origin: My Daughter wanted Zoey and I wanted Noodles. We sat the puppy in the living room and each called her by what we wanted to call her....

Radio Silence Finally Broken. Saturday night, after traveling 1640.7 miles, our final destination was reached. It was just before sunset and Beautiful outside. Zoodles was in heaven because she knew exactly where she was once we turned off the highway onto her...

Never in a million years did I think that it would be hard to access fresh water for my RV when I left Hayden ID. In fact, it was the last thought on my mind as far as 'a concern' goes... Turns out that traveling during the winter "off season" is a little trickier...

We pulled into Union Grove State Park (in SD). What a terrific little campground. My Allstays app stated that this was year round, had electric and everything. It showed as being just off the main highway so I thought, "Right Turn Clyde" at the exit point. It was a...

Zodes woke me up around 2 am to be let outside for a bathroom break. I opened the door and the temperature took my breath away so I checked it on my phone. Note what the forecasted temp is supposed to be... 25 degrees, only off by a few... While it's cold it's NOT 6!...

Much better travel conditions today - Image location: Highway 90E outside of Vivion The best rest area view ever Chamberlin SD overlooking the Missouri river Called it a day in Sioux Falls Wallmart super center...

Yesterday I was enjoying flip-flop weather at the Badlands National Park. This morning however this is what I woke up to: Yesterday -vs- Todays pictures:   Road conditions sucked: (we  went as far as Vivion SD then called it a day - it was just getting worse and worse...

I left Wall SD. While heading down highway 90E, at exit marker 131, (about 30 miles down the road) I decided to turn off and go explore Badlands National Park. I have an annual park pass (GREAT VALUE) and a right turn detour of only 10.3 miles was probably worth it...

I can certainly tell I'm headed the right direction. I'm still in Wall SD. I just finished a presentation with Sarah Hustead of Wall Drug Store  (4th generation family member to run Wall Drug since 1931). Yesterday I was able to put back on shorts and my flip flops...

Wall Drug Store Bound. Wall Drug is known for having a few road signs posted along the highway... What is not commonly known is that these signs are responsible for attracting over 20,000 people a day (during peak season) into thier store in a town that has a...

This morning we (Pete, Zoodles and I) are parked at the rest stop in Broadus, MT. Pete is out stretching his legs... Last night I gave Zoodles some canned dog food mixed with her regular food to inspire her to eat more. It has upset her tummy this morning and she...

Believe it or not this is the bomb can opener for my RV - it's light and works like a charm and is super east to twist! Best of all it's less than 10 bucks at Walmart. The ease of twisting action is important to me because I had shattered my wrist years ago and it is...

Ok so I bought about everything there is available (under 100 bucks) and NOTHING kept my feet comfortable while at the same time gaving me grip in the snow, let me walk through water puddles (carefully) and did not fail within a week... These are almost 2 months old...
