Kentucky (September 19th through September 23rd)


After Burlington, we stayed at Big Bone Lick State Park for three nights. While there, we visited Lexington, KY and did a mini pub crawl.






Our next destination was to Red River Gorge in the middle of the Daniel Boone National Forest.  We stayed at Natural Bridge Campground in Slade, KY and enjoyed three days of amazing hiking.

For those who do not know my husband-to-be, Kristopher and I (Danielle), we met at work in July 2015.  He moved to Salt Lake City in late-August, and we started seeing each other soon after his arrival.  Fast forward to March 2017, and we were engaged in Hawaii.  Shortly thereafter, we decided to ditch Suburbia and two well-paying jobs for an unconventional lifestyle.  For the next year, we will be traveling with our dog across North America in a truck hauling a fifth wheel. To add to the insanity of taking a year off work, we decided to sell our Salt Lake City home .  Before we can begin our adventure, we have to pick-up our chariot (2017 GMC Sierra 3500HD Denali Dually) from his parents' house  to haul our home-on-wheels (Forest River Cardinal 3350RL) from Ponchatoula, LA.  We then have to secure our belongings with my parents in East Tennessee .  We depart UT on Friday, June 30th. We decided to document our adventure as a way to keep in touch with the friends we left in SL

Ohio Bound (September 4th through 9th)

After fleeing Somerset Airfield, we headed west and ended up outside Binghamton, NY were we spent two nights at Chenango State Park. We are meeting some old friends of mine in Grove City, OH (outside Columbus) on Friday, so we had a series of jumps to break up the nine hour drive.  After setting up camp, Kristopher, Lambeau and I drove to Binghamton for drinks and dinner.  Since it was Labor Day, most places were closed, but we had drinks at Belmar and Indian food from Taj Tandoor.  We both ate way too much food, so we went for a walk in what we thought was downtown Binghamton.  Turns out it was the rougher part of town, but we left unscathed. One of our first stops on the trip was an organic dairy farm where we purchased grass-fed beef.  Their products were so amazing and well-priced, we wanted to restock our freezer. Since rain was in the forecast all day Tuesday, we drove an hour to Groton, New York.  If you can't tell, the lens on Kristopher's iPhone broke, leaving me

The Journey

As I mentioned in the last post, we have spent the last two weeks packing our belongings to move them from Salt Lake City, UT to Mosheim, Tennessee. We departed SLC on June 30th and stayed in Limon, Colorado that night. To our luck, they gave us the shittiest truck on the lot- no cd or auxillary, the loud-ass motor was under the passenger's side and it had two bucket seats.  None of this made for a good ride with a 22 pound dog in your lap in July.  Wyoming is the worst state to drive in, especially when you're new to driving a moving truck with a car dolly attached. With wind gusts of 25+ mph, we had to keep it at a steady 60 mph.  Traffic in Denver was even more nerve-wracking, and we were relieved to get to the hotel at 1am.  Lambeau wasn't thrilled with the seating arrangement or the cabin noise, but he adjusted and slept about 20 hours that day. Day two consisted of driving through Kansas and Missouri.  I had a long nap while Kristopher drove, we decided to tag team
