Ramblin' Man: Full-time RV Life - Blogs

Mary remains at home in California tending to medical issues.

The motorhome is currently parked at Santa Rosa Lake State Park, about 125 miles east of Albuquerque.

==========================================

2011-2013 ? 6th Circumnavigation Of The USA?Update #4

This Blog posting?which I will post from time-to-time?will be used to present my/our travels on this almost two-year circumnavigation of the United States?my 6th?Mary?s 2nd. During these circumnavigations, I try to travel on roads I?ve not seen before?I?m about 90% successful in that regard.

The only things I know about our potential destinations during this upcoming adventure is that I/we plan to spend a good portion of 2012 exploring the State of New Mexico. In 2013 we?re planning to attend my oldest grand-daughter?s high school graduation in June in southeastern Connecticut. Other than that?we?ll just have to find out one-day-at-a-time where our fates will send us.

The trip began from Murphys, California on November 29, 2011 with 35,956.5 miles on the motorhome odometer. In addition to showing the route taken, I intend to also document where I/we parked during this journey. My guess is that within the about next 700+ days we will park in about 250+ different places.

Here?s the map so far which you may click on to see in a larger view?

In other news?

When I depart Santa Rosa Lake State Park in New Mexico, I will turn in a southeasterly direction in the general direction of deep south Texas where I plan to avoid the cold Winter weather as much as possible.

Enjoying beautiful places is another joy in the life of a full-time RVer!
