Dells, Wisconsin

We made a stop in the Wisconsin Dells on our way to South Dakota

Downtown on the Wisconsin River Walk

Nappanee, Indiana


We headed to Nappanee Indiana to get some maintenance for Julie at the “Mothership” (as many Newmar owners call the Newmar Factory/Service Center - LOL).  This was originally scheduled for March, but  due to Coronavirus, it was rescheduled for August.  Lots of RV factory/service Centers in this area of the country.

Illinois

 We stopped at Gun Creek Campground at Rend Lake in Whittington Illinois ( Another sticker for our map!)

We had a beautiful spot on the Lake - enjoyed a beautiful sunset.  We would love to come back to this site and stay for a week next time. 

2020 Trip finally begins - Arkansas

Arkansas

We left Texas early August on our way to Nappanee, Indiana to get some maintenance for Julie at the Newmar Factory/Service Center.  This was originally scheduled for March, but with Coronavirus, our travels were delayed and our service was rescheduled for August.

Our first stop was in Arkansas on the way, to visit our family - we had an awesome visit.  

We  stayed at a campground in Little Rock right off the Arkansas River

Natchitoches, Louisiana

We had a great weekend in Natchitoches, Louisiana.   Several people had told us we should visit there around Christmas time, as they are known as “The City of Lights”  with events every weekend.  One of the couples that was at the Cajun Gala also lived there and they showed us around town.

The town really goes all out for Christmas - this being their 93rd Annual celebration, with lighted decorations along the Cane River and bands performing along the river and on front street.

Saturday night we enjoyed seeing the boat parade of lights, where decorated boats cruised the river.


Cajun Gala in Henderson, LA

We had a fun filled week at the All Inclusive Motorhome (AIM) Cajun Gala in Henderson, LA at the Cajun Palms RV Resort.
 
Our first night was Mardi Gras themed complete with zydeco band & dancing and the first of many great Cajun meals during the week.

Back in Texas (late October)

We got back to town just in time for the
Sugar Land Flying Saucer Beer fest 
Fun times with the family!
