I love the gulf and when friends said they were coming here for two days and wanted to know if I wanted to join them, I jumped at the chance. This is a small state park, mostly pull-thru sites, with water and electricity. Don't be discouraged as you pass all the oil refineries on the... Continue Reading →
There’s a Storm Coming…
How many of you have changed your plans recently? I know I have. I blogged last month that I would be adding about 20 to 25 new RV campground reviews starting this spring through summer. Well, that's all changed. I had a plan to drive from southeast Texas to Northern California end of March (ten... Continue Reading →
Oh Bother!
Requisite chores when you're full-time “Oh, bother!” as Pooh would say. People excitedly comment on the amount of freedom I have living full time in a motorhome and traveling but it’s not all a life of leisure. I find there are still a few items of responsibility I must endure and have recently met the... Continue Reading →
Dellanera RV Park, Galveston Island, TX
Dellanera is a beach front RV Park just west of the busy part of Galveston where the piers and attractions are and is run by the City. I think if I had originally had a site on the west end of the park rather than the east end, I would have been happier and stayed... Continue Reading →
Fall/Winter 2019 Update
Dear Followers of Animals Aboard: You are probably wondering why you haven't seen any updates. I have been going back to parks to stay that I've already reviewed so haven't been adding to the resources. I will actually have some sightseeing updates in the next 3 weeks and also one new RV Park update. Then,... Continue Reading →
Big Dogs in Tiny Places — An Essay
I've written in the past about my life spent moving a lot and also about gravitating toward tinier places to live, such as shared housing or renting small abodes. Today, as I once again stumbled over my dog as I was trying to make breakfast, I thought, "I'll bet there are other people who live... Continue Reading →
Rusk KOA Holiday, Rusk, Texas
This is a KOA Holiday in a really nice area with all pull-thru sites with full hook ups. It was quite chilly while I was here with temperatures dipping down into the low 30s but I can imagine this is a popular spot during the summer. It's quite expensive at about $49 a night. I...

Texarkana KOA, Texarkana, Texas
I wasn't quite sure when I checked in that I would like it because my site was right by the front entrance alongside a highway frontage road. Plus, when I checked in, I was the only RV for 3 rows until you get to the longer term people. But it turned out ok and I... Continue Reading →
Clinton RV Park, Clinton, Arkansas
Clinton RV Park This is not a traveler's RV park but pleasant for two days as I passed through. It's on Highway 65 south between Branson, Missouri and Little Rock, Arkansas. When I checked in, the lady at the counter was very personable and chatty. However, she didn't give me a map or say where... Continue Reading →
Rustic Meadows RV Park, Strafford, MO — I do not recommend
Are you treated differently when the management knows that you write reviews? You betcha. I booked this campground for 3 days in between stops and was so disappointed, I called the office the morning of the second day and asked for a refund for the third day, giving them more than 24 hours notice. They... Continue Reading →
