Looking forward to your trip and descriptions of adventures. I like the photos of your camper interior setup, well thought out. We went in 2017, seems like yesterday but not! We fly back in September for a couple weeks with my nephews camper (Seward). Alaska is iso incredible as is Canada way up yonder. You will have a ball! Happy Trails.
When you stop in Seward... the coffee house Resurrect Art (old church) ... my nephew and his wife's place...say hi!

If it serves come for a visit or a place to recharge on the north Oregon coast.

Travel safe

I'm hitting the road today.

I have added a air deflector between the cab and camper, It seems to have reduced the wind noise.
No picture for now.

I'm heading over the mountains to pick up the Blue Ridge Parkway north to somewhere in Virginia

I left the BRP near Floyd. VA because it is slow traveling and I had told my brother i would be at his house in Northern VA Wendsday noonish. I was only a little late.

Ive had a good visit and am now headed towards my other brother in Buffalo, NY
 
I found a nice campground for the night near Harpers Ferry WV.

Brunswick city campground
It’s on the Potomac river
And $20 for dry camping but there’s an active rail yard next to it


Picture didnt upload.
 
Ahh Mabry Mill! They have a great little county restaurant there and is Very popular in the fall with all the leaf peepers. The Buckwheat Pancakes are to die for!
 
I got pulled over and a full search at the border (Lewiston bridge)

I guess I hi too many Flags, dogs, indefinate plans, long trip etc

I have a lot more pictures but need to spend some time on the computer.
 
Enjoying vicariously the open time/road travel…no pressure other then what we bring to it. We also were pulled aside and had camper thoroughly gone through when we went into Quebec. I guess we looked hippi-ish!
 
One of our trips in 2010,crossing into Victoria,BC last ferry almost midnight
got the full search.I think they just needed something to do.
We didn't get out just sat there and watched them take a very casual look
around inside.
The biggest question was whether we were taking firewood into BC.
Nope but a camper coming in before us had some so they got the full treatment.

Got to keep us hippie types honest I guess.
