June 25th thru July 1st, 2010 Deer Creek Motor Coach Resort-Galax, VA We got to Galax, VA on Rt. 58 and looked for Rt. 89 to take us south of town to the resort. We should have continued east on Rt. 58 for another mile or so to get us onto the "truck route" around Galax. By turning right, or south when we did it was fortunate that the car getting ready to make a left turn from the left turn lane saw that he should back way up so our big coach could m...

June 17th thru June 24th June 17th thru June 19th: Linville Falls. It isn't easy to keep current with the blog when there is no Internet! Pictures for this time frame were added a couple of days ago.

Spent the night at their facility Thursday night and they installed the awnings on Friday. All other b...

This will actually be Blog #1. Today is April 22, 2010, Earth Day. After looking at a number of online travel blogs, I have decided that "Off Exploring" is what I'm going to use to keep friends and family informed on our whereabouts and details of our journey. The countdown has begun. Twenty-two days until departure date. Oh, so much to do in those 22 days. We are having a Bon Voyage Party on May 12th.....2 days before we leave. The motorhouse is still...
