We spent two days exploring Hot Spring National Park (in Hot Springs, AR). I was excited to go for a soak to heal all my ailments in the 4,000-year-old thermal spring waters. I did my soaking at the Buckstaff Bathhouse which opened in 1912 (and is the only bathhouse to continuously operate since then). It …

We started off our Spring Break going west. Our first stop was north of Memphis at Meeman Shelby Forest State Park. We explored the park on our bikes and had so much fun that we changed our entire plan to spend more time in (and around) this park and in Millington. It was the perfect …

This was our first trip of the 2024 RV season with some winter camping at Fort Pillow Historic State Park in west TN. It is a Civil War encampment that was on the Mississippi River. We learned a little about it and hiked to a restored fortification. Winter camping sometimes works out with the weather …

I had to work in Fort Worth, TX so I made Emily come with me (and also work…ha). All work and no play makes Deano a dull boy, however. We did some JFK-themed sightseeing at the JFK Memorial and the Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza (in Dallas). Of course, I enjoyed the conspiracy theory …
Hogdaddy hosted the 1st Annual Frisbee Golf Invitational for Thanksgiving this year. It was a challenging course. At some point money started flowing so I quit filming and starting flingin’!

4 years ago, we wrestled with the decision of whether to buy an RV or not. I’m a nerd. I did a bunch of math to figure out if it would be worth it. We ultimately decided to buy the RV and hit the road. We took the plunge. We’ve traveled for 4 years and …

The early bird gets the bird?!? We didn’t get to the birding park early enough to do any birding (but late breakfast was really good). Regardless, it was still a beautiful fall afternoon to explore around this state park. Emily didn’t like my regenerative agriculture ‘knowledge session’ but she did like Buc-ees (meh)!
We stayed at Panther Creek State Park on our last trip of the 2023 RV season. The lake was pretty against the fall leaves. It was a nice park for a short hike and a visit with Max and Arden. It also allowed Emily to continue her late 2023 rant against the evil TVA dam …
