Daily updates to the traveling Busse Bus
We briefly thought about riding our bikes up to the summit and back down again but then clearer minds prevailed. The jeep makes more sense and we could bring the doggies. A wonderful scary ride as you traverse the switchbacks without guard rails. Katrina kept telling me to move Read more…
The Manitou Springs Cliff Dwellings were built in their present location in the 1900’s as a museum, preserve and tourist attraction to represent the actual dwellings found in the Four Corners built by the Anasazi. I just learned this from google – somewhat disappointing now that I know these were Read more…
First stop: Cave of the Winds. Natural cave discovered in 1881. Multiple options for reviewing the actual cave: Lantern or discovery. Since we didn’t want to crawl on our hands and knees through dirt and water (spelunking), we opted for the gentler discovery tour. I guess we are getting old, Read more…
Colorado and mountains bound and hopefully cooler weather. Been in the 90’s for weeks. First stop: Colorado Springs – only 500 miles away (and you can’t hear the whistle blow that far); our longest drive yet. I’m anticipating the drive in as I recall the beauty of going from wheat Read more…
So apparently I’ve been spelling it wrong all these years. Guess I was sick that day of elementary school. We pulled into a gravel parking lot that passes as a campground called USI RV Park. Good Sam (which we are members since we purchased the Busse Bus from a Camping Read more…
What a great great campground! Twin Fountains RV Park. This is Glamour Camping or Glamping at it’s finest. Fishing pond, miniature golf, pool, hot tub, bar & grill, salon, pet grooming, fitness center, horseshoes and spa. I need to find more places like this one. Upon arrival we talked with Read more…
I didn’t see the sand nor the springs of the namesake for this community just outside of Tulsa, OK. We stayed at the Riverview RV Park (kinda becoming our thing to stay riverside) which was built out of an old rock quarry. On three sides the rocks protruded about 15 feet straight Read more…
Wow! A World Championship and we are here to witness it! 13th Annual run. ESPN in attendance. Has to be good. This was one of the stupidest, funniest events that I have ever seen. Different heats, tub categories, trophies, decorations, sponsors, and the best – audience participation. They take old Read more…
Since Lane was spot on with regards to the sushi restaurant in Little Rock, we continued to follow his advice and headed to Hot Springs, AR. It is under a revitalization and the old spas are being rejuvenated. Stayed outside the city at a place called J&J RV Park and Read more…
Stayed in the heart of the city at the Downtown Riverside RV Park with our site right on the river. Beautiful view of the downtown and within walking / riding distance of one of the foot bridges that crosses the Arkansas River. Great bike path along the river so Read more…
