We left Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park area, on August 28, and headed to Rockland, Maine where we stayed for seven nights at the Rockland Elks. Since Narrows Too RV Park was a “Trails Collection” Encore park that we used last week up in Acadia, we have to be out of the system for… Continue reading Rockland, Rockport & Camden, Maine

Boston – 2 FULL days
I was concerned when someone at the Elks Lodge told us to expect to pay at least $50 a day for parking in Boston, but I discovered the ParkWhiz parking app. It showed the various parking lots with the price when you reserve and prepay for a spot. I booked/prepaid for a really convenient 12-hour… Continue reading Boston – 2 FULL days
Santa Barbara: Elks RV, Pickleball and Oysters
Santa Barbara was not a major stop, but it turned out to be the one that made August the month of oysters for us! August 26, we arrived at the Santa Barbara Elks. It was a little confusing as we pulled in. Pulling in from the street, and being about 56 feet long with the… Continue reading Santa Barbara: Elks RV, Pickleball and Oysters
Pismo Beach-Another Elks, Another Beach Town
We made it to Oceano Elks on Aug 23 to camp in the “RV Rest Area”. That’s what they call the area for RV’s to stay. It was nice that we were able to make a reservation in advance for our three night stay. Pulling in was quick and easy. Sites were pretty level with… Continue reading Pismo Beach-Another Elks, Another Beach Town
Monterey Bay Aquarium-A MUST See!
We pulled into the Monterey Elks on August 18th to stay in an RV site for 5 nights. There are two entrances to the Elks parking lot. The one we entered from, (and left through), had a couple of neighborhood roads with tighter turns, but I think it was better than the other entrance that… Continue reading Monterey Bay Aquarium-A MUST See!
Napa Disappoints
When in Napa…Barry and I figured we’d visit a select winery or two for the true Napa experience. We weren’t planning extensive wine tasting since I rarely drink anymore. We saw a Wine Train advertised. That would be cool, so Barry got online to check it out. Details didn’t matter–there was no availability during our… Continue reading Napa Disappoints
Elks – No Vacancy- Now What?
Enjoying the views on today’s drive… from a cool bridge to nice welcome signs to the water’s edge multiple times. Brookings Elk Lodge RV Park does not take advance reservations. When we were about an hour out I called to let them know we were coming. Unfortunately, I was told they were full and they… Continue reading Elks – No Vacancy- Now What?
A Full Day in Tillamook, Oregon
We stayed at the Tillamook Elks RV Park for the night of August 4. . What a nice, spacious park in a country setting! The Elks RV Park is several miles from the lodge located in town. What a contrast to a just an area of the parking lot of a local lodge. This is… Continue reading A Full Day in Tillamook, Oregon
Redding Elks Lodge & RV
Today was a 313-mile drive from Yosemite. More curves and steep grades. Oh boy! I can’t wait for straight and boring roads. We stayed at the Redding Elks twice during the summer of 2017, so we were looking forward to decent 50 amp, and … a great swimming pool! We were not disappointed. We parked… Continue reading Redding Elks Lodge & RV
“Take It Easy” on Route 66
Today, October 14, 2019, we left Albuquerque, NM. I enjoy seeing landscape changes as we drive. Some sites are beautiful…others are quite the opposite. We stopped to “Take It Easy” for the day and night in Winslow, AZ! Of course we had to hang out “Standin’ on the Corner” for a while. 🙂 Written by… Continue reading “Take It Easy” on Route 66
