Schneid RV Travels

We drove to Watkins Glen NY on 7 June 2026. We stayed at Watkins Glen State Park, and it was a little scary getting to the campground with having to drive through downtown in lots of traffic. We finally made it and then had to wiggle our camper into our campsite. I say “wiggle”, because there was no room to maneuver with a narrow street and trees to avoid. We got settled in and set up then went out to see the town. Watkins Glen seems to be a touristy place for Seneca Lak

New York Welcome Center - 5 June 2026 Chautauqua Lake We drove from East Harbor State Park in Marblehead Ohio to Allegany State Park in Salamanca New York on Friday 5 June. We had officially started our trip up to Fryeburg Maine for the 2026 Escapade. The Escapade dates are 14-19 June, but we opted to arrive early (12 June), so we still had plenty of time to get there. After we got set up at Allegany State Park, we went to check in and the park agent gave us some “must see

We arrived at East Harbor State Park on Lake Erie Marblehead Peninsula Ohio on Sunday 31 May 2026 to stay for five nights. We wanted to go out on Lake Erie for walleye fishing one day and we had made a reservation for Wednesday the 3rd of June. East Harbor State Park is a beautiful place with lots of walking and hiking paths, birding, bicycling and boat launches. Our time here has flown by! On Monday 1 June, we drove into Port Clinton to see the charter boats coming in.

Jerry & Debbie with us - Caesar Creek State Park - 28 May 2026 On 27 May 2026 we drove to Waynesville Ohio to stay at Caesar Creek State Park for four nights. We wanted to see friends, Jerry and Debbie, and visit the National Air Force Museum in Dayton. We had met Jerry and Debbie last 4th of July (2025) in Seward, Seldotna and Homer Spit Alaska. We became fast friends and have kept in touch texting. They're good down to earth people and we enjoy being with them and sharin

24 May 2026 was an interesting travel day. We started out in Coldwater Mississippi and within 40 minutes we had traveled in three states with reaching Tennessee and Arkansas within less than 50 miles. Our trip north continued and we eventually traveled through Missouri and Illinois before reaching our destination of Elberfeld Indiana. So that day we traveled in 6 states! We had reached Anna Illinois by lunch time and we stopped at the Trail of Tears Rest Area to have our p

We arrived at Memphis South Campground in Coldwater Mississippi on 21 May 2026. We were booked for three nights here and we wanted to see Memphis Tennessee one day while we were here. Although the weather forecast showed more rain chance on Friday than Saturday, we opted to do our Memphis experience on the Friday. We lucked out and didn't need the umbrellas we carried. We had to get fuel and propane while we were out and about, so we found a propane refill place first. N

We arrived in Henderson/Breaux Bridge Louisiana 7 May 2026 for a two week stay to see family and friends. Anita also wanted to introduce Steve to a couple of favorite restaurants and we played tourists one day to show Steve the area. Anita was amazed at how much the city of Lafayette, where she grew up, has grown and changed. We enjoyed seeing family and friends that Anita hadn't seen in over 20 years for some. Anita's first cousin Phyllis came to see us at our camper on

Texas is a large state, so it took us a few days to get from New Mexico to Livingston Texas for our annual doctor appointments. We stopped at San Angelo State Park in Texas for two nights and then Waco Texas for two nights, before arriving in Livingston. We saw all the doctors and Steve got injections of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) in both knees on 15 April. We both got clean bills of health from all the check-ups, so we're good on doctor visits until Steve is ready to see

Highlight of our two stops in New Mexico We spent 9 nights in New Mexico on our way to Texas. Two nights were spent at City of Rocks State Park in Faywood NM, then one week at The Ranch, an SKP Co-Op in Lakewood NM. City of Rocks State Park is amazing! The campground is literally among these huge rocks and it’s very quiet. It is located next door to natural hot springs at Faywood Hot Springs Resort. We got a reservation for a soak in a hot spring at 7pm the day we arrived

We arrived in Benson Arizona on 4 March 2026 for one week. We arrived with aspirations to see quite a bit, so we made a list and planned to see sites on certain days while in Benson. Anita got the Yuma blog posting done in the morning of the 5 th , and then we went out to Tombstone and Bisbee in the afternoon. We saw that Tombstone offers trolley tours, so we decided to go there later in our week and focus on an underground mine tour in Bisbee that day. We got in to the 2

Our home 4 December 2025 – 4 March 2026 We were in Yuma from 4 December 2025 – 4 March 2026. We played pickleball several times a week and walked most days to get exercise. Steve went on the weekly hiking trips with the hiking group. Anita opted out of the steeper climbs but went on a few of the hikes. There were weekly potlucks on Thursdays and we attended a few of those. We also hooked up with the Yuma Audubon Society birding group and went out for a couple of birding w

Yuma AZ Christmas Parade 13 December 2025 Parker Arizona - 1 December 2025 Parker Arizona - 2 December 2025 Parker Arizona - 2 December 2025 Parker Arizona - 2 December 2025 Parker Arizona - 2 December 2025 Parker Arizona - 3 December 2025 We arrived in Yuma Arizona on 4 December 2025 and will stay at one RV resort for 2 months. We’ll either extend one more month here or stay at another resort, but we do plan to spend a total of 3 months in Yuma before heading to Livingston

On Monday 24 November 2025, we drove to Pahrump Nevada to stay at Pair-a-Dice SKP Park for a week. We spent Thanksgiving there with other Escapees. Our drive from Lone Pine California to Pahrump Nevada was through Death Valley National Park for much of the trip, so we stopped inside the park to have our lunch. Death Valley National Park - 24 November 2025 Our drive from Lone Pine CA to Pahrump NV Death Valley National Park - 24 November 2025 Our drive from Lone Pine CA to P

Thursday 20 November 2025, we drove to Lone Pine California which is west of Death Valley National Park. We planned to stay there 4 nights as two of the days we were to be there had rain in the forecast. We arrived in Lone Pine to temps in the high 40’s! We got set up just before it started raining. The rain wasn’t hard as we were on the edge of the system moving through. On Friday 21 November, we stayed in in the morning and after lunch we drove to the Eastern Sierra I

On 13 November 2025 we arrived in Paicines California to stay at Thousand Trails San Benito. We had set up in the rain the morning we left and it was raining when we arrived. Even though we left the rain forests of Washington and Oregon, we have had record-setting rain in California. We lucked out on Friday 14 November when we drove out to Monterey Bay CA to see the coast. We had sunshine for our drive from Monterey Bay all the way to Big Sur where a landslide closed the

We arrived in Redding California on 11 November 2025 for two nights. That left us one day for seeing Lassen Volcanic National Park. On 12 November we drove 50 miles from our campground to Lassen Volcanic National Park. About 15 miles into the drive we saw a sign for the park, but with another sign "CLOSED" on it. We kept going since that was all we had planned for the day. To our surprise there was a park ranger at the gate when we arrived. She said she's only allowed t

We drove about 200 miles to Klamath California to stay at Kamp Klamath RV Park for a week. We arrived on 4 November 2025. The forecast showed rain for the first three days of our stay. As a matter of fact, we set up in the rain when we arrived. We’re still in a rain forest, so the dank atmosphere is expected, but we are both ready to leave the rain forest. Our campground is within a couple of miles of the Pacific Ocean and even closer to the Klamath River which feeds int

After we stayed in our first campground in Oregon, we have officially now camped in the 49 states we can drive to! That took three years. We left Maryland toward the end of October 2022. Now we will be seeing places we missed or that we want to see again. We're definitely more laid back about planning. We're just making reservations the day before we leave a place and it's working out well in making our way south. We arrived in Prospect Oregon to stay at Crater Lake RV P

After 4 nights in Chimacum Washington, we drove 35 miles to Sequim WA on 23 October 2025 for our 10am service appointment on our Grand Design. The outcome was replacing both back jack stands. The parts had to be ordered but they were able to get them overnight, so we got the repairs done on Friday the 25 th by noon and were on our way to Oregon that afternoon. We got to Rainier Oregon around 5pm that evening. The drive was slow going with rain all the way. We stayed at

Our home 14-18 October 2025 We drove 98 miles from Chimacum Washington to Forks Washington on 14 October 2025. We got set up and had our lunch by 1pm, so we ventured out to see the Hoh Rain Forest in the west end of Olympic National Park. We stopped at Peak 6 Adventure Store, a privately owned store/gift shop on the road to Hoh Rain Forest. The lady there had lots of information about the area and she even knew where to see the Roosevelt elk. There is a pasture field behin
