Even though they say we might be getting more snow, I'm closing the door on this winter. Tonight Max argued with me vigorously about when the first day of spring is. He insisted it is tomorrow. For a moment I actually thought about giving in and letting him win. Yes...
To celebrate Roadfood's recent selection of White House Subs to their top 100 "must-visit stops" the campers decided to go directly to the source for a classic Jersey Shore munchdown. Last fall we headed to their Taj Mahal location to get our primordial eat on--but...
It's pretty bad around here, folks. Our boys are so desperate for the road that they are building 'campgrounds' out of their Megablocks and Spinaroos. Jeremy took the camper down to the dealership for a bit of a freshening up this weekend, and something about the act...

My boys are darn good hikers. Not that they have a choice. Since Stephanie and I started RVing with them four years ago we have spent over a hundred nights camping, and dozens of days hiking. When they were just one we threw them in the truck, packed up the pop-up...
Max and Theo have spent well over 100 nights of their short lives traveling up and down the Eastern Seaboard. Nevertheless, they have only stayed in a hotel three times. Wes clocks in at one night so far. Suffice it to say, we have one way that we like to travel and...
Years ago, long before the boys arrived on the scene, the temperatures hit the high sixties on a weekend in February. Jeremy and I had a different sort of life then, and the weather inspired us to hightail it to a bed and breakfast in Cape May where we spent the...
