Meet our new truck + a few of Ohio’s historic bridges

Chronicles from the Road Issue 115 TRAVEL GALLERY FACEBOOK INSTAGRAM PINTEREST JUST WANDERING October 3, 2025 Hey there Reader! I hope fall and cooler temperatures have arrived in your neck of the woods. We are in northeast Ohio, and it is the perfect fall weather! We found some time between truck shopping and adulting (i.e., working) to explore the area a bit, and it was beautiful with its emerging fall colors! Here's a recap of the week! 📷: OM-1 MarkII | ISO: 200 | f 4.0 | 1/1250 sec. Photo...

RV Hunters: Our Hershey Adventure

Chronicles from the Road Issue 113 TRAVEL GALLERY FACEBOOK INSTAGRAM PINTEREST JUST WANDERING September 18, 2025 Hello again! Last week was full of fun, excitement, and exhaustion! We spent three days exploring "America's Largest RV Show," the Hershey RV Show. Over 1,500 RVs were on display, which came in handy since we were hoping to narrow down the possibilities for our next home on wheels. And, if RVs aren't your cup of tea, the show was right next door to Hershey World, literally the...

Chronicles from the Road Issue 112 TRAVEL GALLERY FACEBOOK INSTAGRAM PINTEREST JUST WANDERING September 11, 2025 Hello wanderers and photo lovers! I am finally catching up after a week in Nashville at my first work conference in many years.

Have you ever found yourself in the absolute wrong place at the wrong time, and somehow, it made the best story later? That was us. In New York City. With our fifth wheel. Crossing the George Washington Bridge Might as well enjoy the sights! We know not to trust Google Maps when towing, so we usually rely on Truck Maps. But here's a fun fact: miss one...

Chronicles from the Road Issue 110 TRAVEL GALLERY FACEBOOK INSTAGRAM PINTEREST JUST WANDERING August 22, 2025 Hello fellow wanderer! I love staying at the Rondout Valley Campground in the heart of the beautiful Catskills. When most people think of New York, their minds go straight to the hustle and bustle of NYC, but the truth is, most of the state is filled with rolling hills, rivers, and quiet towns that are perfect for outdoor exploration. Fun fact: Upstate New York is technically...

Two Cities, Two Stories, One Motorcyle

Chronicles from the Road Issue 109 Follow us on Social Media at Just Wandering! August 15, 2025 Cool morning air caught us head-on as the road stretched ahead, each mile pulling us closer to the day’s first adventure. Salt from the harbor drifted in with the breeze, mixing with the warm scent of asphalt as the sky grew brighter with every turn. We weren’t just riding, we were chasing two very different stories: one whispered in the creak of Salem’s oldest house, the other steaming from bamboo...

My Office Has Wheels (And Sometimes No Internet)

RV Life Unplugged Issue 108 August 8, 2025 Hello, fellow adventurer! This past week seemed full of challenges as a full-time traveler working remotely, so I thought I would share the ups and downs of life on the road. It’s a balancing act of responsibilities and adventure sprinkled with the mundane, after-work brain fatigue that only a simple dinner followed by binge-watching a series will fix. (Currently, we are on Season 9 of The Blacklist, and I’m not sure I’ve recovered from the Season 8...

They’re all part of our wild weekend through Connecticut and Rhode Island to check states 43 and 44 off our Lower 48 list!
