This site is a record of Bernie & Trish’s Our Grand Adventure… traveling the US in their motorhome, Sweet Baby.

Leaving home in Portland, OR, they plan to travel the northern states, move into the midwest, and eventually get to Navarre, FL for a couple months. While in FL we will take a Caribbean cruise. In mid February, they will head west, in a very general way…stopping at lots of places…and wherever their interest takes them!!!

DVD: Drive Your Motorhome Like a Pro
Learn how… and why…to drive a motorhome the right, safe way. In this 67-minute DVD, RVer/tour bus driver Lorrin Walsh. and host Mark Polk show you everything you need to know to confidently drive a motorhome. This should be essential viewing for novice motorhome drivers, but even experienced RVers will learn things they don’t know.

Dale & Mary Lynn & Dobbie the Wonder Dog. No Reservations, No Plans, No Worries…. We received a surprise offer of early retirement effective June 2007. Even more surprisingly, we decided to accept. Traveling by RV during retirement has been a dream of ours for many years. Deciding to spend our children’s inheritance, we began our RV search in earnest. We purchased a 2008 37 foot Tiffin Allegro Bay in mid-December of 2007 from Davis Motorhome Mart in Memphis, Tennessee. Follow along on our travels…

Mark and Katie lived in a splendid apartment in the splendid town of Montclair, New Jersey, with a superbly splendid chihuahua named Mister. They were happy, but their lives became increasingly enveloped in routine and obligation.

Mark writes:
After many enthusiastic (read: inebriated) discussions of how to harness our creative instincts into meaningful outpourings, we arrived at a concept. What else could feed our mutual longing for excitement and discovery but: An American road trip! Enter Wanderful.us, a life-altering journey, and subsequent journal, that will reaffirm our connection with our home country.

This blog will one day become a journal that Katie and I share with our kids and grandchildren, as we gush to them about the best moments of our lives. This is the time to experience, to create, to share, to explore, to meet new people, to realize our individuality, to be inspired by our human race, to live!
