Nearing Home

While at a campground last summer, a lady told me about this campground in North Carolina that catered to dogs.  We decided to stopped there.  It was a nice place, with about 8 off leash dog areas. Ripley had a blast. While in the area, we visited a friend (Kayla) living in Hickory. After our stay at Four Paws Kingdom, we went north to Carolina Crossroads from there to Pasadena, Maryland. Thus ending our marvelous 6 month road trip.  We clocked over 22,000 miles. We visited national parks, monuments, and seashores. We went to big cities and little towns and into the boonies. We saw bison, bear, dolphins and more. We met with friends across the country.  It was a dream trip. We had so much fun.  We now have a new list of places we hope to see some day.
  • each campsite was numbered and named

all the signs had been painted by the owner. She had a cool painting of Corgiritaville,
A tiki bar scene featuring dogs

all the tennis ball Ripley found on the dog park. He is a little OCD about balls.
Watch the video below





Ripley tried to pick this ball up but couldn't, Guy had a hard time kicking it
Hurt his toe

Ripley liked chasing it too

Guy kept the record of our stops. we stayed in 28 states, passed through 2 states and missed the rest
We still have 10 states that we have never stayed in. So, I haven't been everywhere.  yet
