Shenandoah National Park was the first National Park we visited on our bus adventures, and it did not disappoint. From the moment we drove onto Skyline Drive to the moment we stood at the peak of a mountain overlooking the valley, we loved it all. We took in more of
Manassas Battlefield (Bull Run) & Luray Caverns
After leaving Washington DC, we drove to Virginia. On our way to the Shenandoah Valley, we stopped for a few hours to tour Manassas National Battlefield Park, the site of the First Battle of Bull Run (and the Second), which was the first major land battle of the Civil War.
Washington DC - Part 1: National Zoo & Arlington National Cemetery

Gettysburg, Pennsylvania in Two Days
Back in 2015 when we first had the idea to start traveling full-time, our main inspiration was to visit as many historic sites as possible to enhance our children’s education. That vision has grown and expanded in the years since, but historic sites have remained a top priority. What
Dash to the East - Part 3: Indiana to Pennsylvania
