During our backpacking trip on the Apostle Islands this August, I recorded some video to help us remember the trip. Our two night, three day trip gave us so much video that I ended up with three videos! If you want to see more of our adventures, subscribe to our YouTube channel. I hope you…
We woke up today in Site 65 in Saint Andrews State Park, just outside Panama City, Florida. Quite notably, this is the exact place we were two years ago, December 10th, 2013. In 2013, we were headed west, ultimately to Southern California. We had just enjoyed Thanksgiving with friends in Tampa, and spent the next…
I am pleased to announce yet another place that you can follow along on your adventures: Our YouTube Channel! We blog about our adventures for detail and philosophical ramblings. We post pictures on our Instagram accounts to share places and short form experiences. We’ve been experimenting with video, and we like the way it allows…
Our visit to the Bruin Lake Campground of the Pinckney Recreation Area was intended to be a little quiet and boring. Our loop of Lake Superior and subsequent re-entry into the USA and visits with friends left us with a list of stuff that just needed to get done. We even passed on a wonderful…
Hello! I saw you guys today on I 94 heading East. Please stop by Dearborn to see the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village!!! So much history, fun and education! Please!
I think your adventure is awesome and I can’t wait to read your blog. Let us know if you need a place to camp/ stay tonight. We have 10 wooded acres in Saline ( and a house).ReplyCancel
We’ve recently completed a circle tour of Lake Superior, and we had a great experience. One surprise in our journey was the shipping traffic on the Great Lakes. I knew shipping on the great lakes was a thing, but I had not considered how we might learn about it or experience it during our journey. Fairly…
When we had our house in Holland, we were just close enough to the water that we’d hear the ships sounding their horns coming into drop off loads of gravel and again on the way out.
It became a game – we’d hear the horns, drop whatever we were doing, jump into the car and try to find the ship.
Ideally we’d catch them going through the channel back into the big lake – where you can stand close enough that they pretty much block the whole horizon.ReplyCancel
We just got back from visiting the Soo Locks in Sault Ste. Marie. Although we did not know about the phone number to call for ship schedules, nor about the Boat Nerd website, we were blessed to see a lake tanker, RCMP boat and a Soo Locks Dam Tour boat go through. Fascinating! The visitor’s center was also worth going through, especially learning about the depths of the various lakes. Lake Erie is the lake closest to us and we were surprised to learn it is the shallowest at an average depth of 62 feet. Travel is so educational! Love following your adventures!ReplyCancel
Love the video. I am wondering what editing software you are currently using?
Thanks! I’m using an app called KineMaster on my phone. I’ve discovered that it is much faster and easier to make videos if I can do it without the computer.
