    93. Staying rooted in relationships: Navigating the emotions of leaving family behind

    93. Staying rooted in relationships: Navigating the emotions of leaving family behind

    As I sit here, reminiscing about the breathtaking views and great adventures we’ve been on over the last few years, there’s a topic that needs to be touched upon — leaving family behind. It’s the family and friends we often leave behind that tug in our hearts every time we hit the road. Embracing the full-time RV lifestyle opens doors to gorgeous landscapes, thrilling adventures, and a network of incredible people. But it also means facing the sadness of leaving loved ones behind.

    The reality? It’s not always easy. We’ve been there, and if you’ve felt that too, know you’re not alone. Whether you’re seasoned in RVing or just dreaming of the open road, we’ll dive into preparing emotionally for this lifestyle, acknowledging our feelings, and finding ways to stay connected.

    92. Voyageurs National Park: An Unforgettable Voyage Through Time and Nature

    Have you ever heard of a place where the lakes stretch on forever, and old stories of past travelers whisper through the trees? We checked off our 33rd National Park and are excited to share what you need to know about Voyageurs National Park.

    French Canadians traversed rough terrains in these waters, trading furs and connecting worlds. They’ve seen landscapes shaped by explosive volcanoes, icy glaciers, and relentless time - and we’re about to embark on that very journey they once took. Voyageurs National Park is a gem tucked away on the Minnesota-Ontario border with four large lakes.

Great podcast!

Just found these guys when I did a search for upper peninsula of Michigan. Listened to their episode, it was informative and funny, their sound quality is great! after one episode and checking out their website I decided to follow them and have my Apple podcast app automatically download their new episodes and I’ll go back and start listening to their old ones. Looking forward to hearing more!!
