Our 2.5 year+ roadtrip in an interactive and updated daily infographic.

I keep track of every place we spend the night and recently created a few graph, charts, maps and stats based on it.

I really enjoyed looking over your site. I haven't looked at all of it yet but will soon. I like the map! You're welcome to come through the NW Arkansas area (we're in Bentonville).

No link quite yet Bob. I'm not sure where to place it.

PaulnGina .... We are spending the spring/summer heading up the east coast but hope to cut back SW diagonally in the fall. Perhaps we will find ourselves in your area. We got to start filling in some of those holes in our map.

So do we Kelvin. We have been debating getting another companion but I think we are going to wait until the fall. Too much we want to do this spring and summer where a new dog would be a hassle.

Thanks PecanMan5. I think the plan is to stick the coast for now. Blythe Island and Skidway Island. A week at each in mid March.

Terrific site - hats off to you!

We have lived in Oregon over 25 years and just recently picked up a trailer. Will use some of your recommendations to check out places here we've never been.

We dream of traveling the U.S. far and wide, sometime in the future, but in the meanwhile can be satisfied that there's plenty in our own backyard. Thanks for all the pointers! :-)

Outstanding site! Your trailer is beautiful both inside and out. Would you be willing to share any interesting information about your tow vehicle? Is it as pimped out with cool custom features as your trailer is?

Very cool! Thanks for posting the how - I was going to ask. Makes me wonder how hard it would be to do it for our upcoming (albeit much shorter) road trip.

Great blog, thanks for posting and the interactive map is fun to watch, but of course not much else to do at -5 degrees this am. Joined your email group. Enjoy.

We tow with a plain old Toyota Tundra. The only pimping I did is adding stickers to the cap windows.
