Some Facts and Figures


Since I haven't posted for awhile I thought that I would start out again with some basic stats on the trip so far.
We have been living in the RV, Abenteuer for about six months and been on the road about four and a half months.
We have driven over 9000 miles through 22 states most of which we have had the chance to visit and see interesting things.













We have replaced three alternators, found four leaks and been on fire once.
We have replaced one GPS, bought one heater and a generator.
We have taken the 1975 Dodge Sportsman Travelcraft with the 360 engine through over 10 major mountain passes including the highest altitude on highway 80 in Wyoming which is over 8000 feet above sea level.
We have couchsurfed 7 times and had a fabulous time with everyone we have met through that program.

We have visited old friends and met so many new ones. We have also missed many people along the way but hope to catch time with them the next time around.
It hasn't always been easy and sometimes I feel like this may have been a poor life choice. But days like today when we are sitting with good people and enjoying new things I know that it was a good choice.
