Durham

July 7, 2009

Today we stayed with the Samuel’s and had a great day of hanging out.  We went to see areas of Duke campus (which is quite beautiful) and ate downtown Durham (where you can see that American Tobacco still is OK).  After a dip in the pool we went to a nice dinner followed by sitting […]

Hanging out in Durham

July 6, 2009

Today we spent hanging with the Samuel clan.  After a BBQ lunch we all headed to the pool for some relaxing (well as relaxing as playing with 4 kids and 3 dogs is).  Tyson also had a surprise 17th b-day party in the early evening.  A great day for all to enjoy the sun and […]

Crosseville to Durham (and Camp Samuel)

July 5, 2009

Today we took our last drive East.  We woke up having listened to the rain on the roof all nice (which was relaxing) to a wet morning.  We took our time and headed to see Dave and Jeanine in Durham NC.  Instead of blindly following I-40 the whole way there, we took our trip through […]

Little Rock to Crossville, TN

July 4, 2009

Today was a long day of driving, but we saw lots of fun stuff.  We awoke early (as we knew of our long drive) and quickly hit the road.  The two hour drive to Memphis left us on the steps of Graceland.  For 2+ hours we roamed the exhibits there.  Saw the planes, the cars, […]

Oklahoma to Little Rock Arkansas

July 3, 2009

We woke this morning with the unfortunate realization that it was July 3rd and some of the museams we wanted to go to were closed 😦  However we made our way into Oklahoma City and went to the Oklahoma City Memorial.  Tears were cried and we hugged each other afterward.  It’s a very touching place […]

Albuquerque to Elk City Oklahoma

July 2, 2009

Today we awoke at Andrea and Jeremy’s awesome ranch (or something, it has a TON of rooms and cool space) in Albuquerque.  Free wireless from a neighbor, a real shower, free laundry, a large field for Stu, and a new friend for Stu (see their dog pictured below), we simply relaxed for the morning.  This […]

Sedona to Albuquerque

July 1, 2009

Susan Stuart and I had a great evening out in Sedona.  We think we will return to Sedona some day, its beautiful.  We also really want to go to Slide Rock State Park which looks like a lot of fun on the river there. After a fun night in Sedona we returned to I-40 and […]

Lake Havasu to Sedona

June 30, 2009

We woke up this morning and spent an hour or so back in the waters of Lake Havasu.  Our RV spot was pretty crummy and HOT however it was walking distance to the state park beach so it worked out well.  After playing in the water we headed over to London Bridge (yes its in […]

We Leave CA

June 29, 2009

Today we actually left California, although we are in Lake Havasu so we are just over the border in Arizona. Most of today was a drive, however we stopped off in Mojave National Preserve for some rock formations and history.  Note the town of Kelso in the pictures.  A WWII town that helped ship things […]
