States and Provinces

Our long-haul RV trips are over.  Now, it will be mostly short trips that require just one day to reach our destination.   And the number of days on site will rarely be more than three.

In our 12 years of RV touring, we've hit 38 states in the US, 2 in Mexico and 11 Canadian provinces.  We managed to miss most of the southeastern states - but didn't miss them much.  The deep south doesn't appeal to us.

Our furthest south stop was San Felipe, in Baja California; don't recall why we went there, it being a small seaside village with little to offer tourists.  Across the Sea of Cortez, aka the Gulf of Mexico, is Puerto Penasco (Rocky Point), a much larger city with lots to see and do.  We went there several times with RVing friends.  The picture below was taken there.

Our Alaska trip was the longest, 15,000+ miles, augmented by an en route stop in MN to attend the family reunion.  Furthest north stop was Fox, Alaska, 10 miles north of Fairbanks.  Had dinner there at the Silver Gulch Saloon, the northernmost brewpub in the US.  

2nd longest tour was to the Canadian Maritimes, the highlight of which was Nova Scotia.  The seaside boardwalk, shown below, is awesome.

I could ramble on indefinitely but why bother?  

The bulk of my 773 blog posts over the last 12 years offer travel details.

  1. Grrr! I can't get a few of your pictures to load. I love reminiscing - we have had so many good times with you two and hopefully there will be more...closer to home.
