While preparing for our adventure, we discovered that there are quite a few families living like nomads. Some people like to wing it, deciding where to stay while on the road. Others plan everything down to the last detail while some do a combination; deciding the major stops and winging it along the way. Those of you who know us (ok, me) probably know that we’ve got this thing planned nearly to the minute!

Adventures in Zimmylandia 
This looks amazing! I am so excited to follow your adventure! Bon Voyage!
No Great Lakes stop???? 😉 Bon voyage! Look forward to reading about the highs and lows and all the laughter in between.
James, we’re thinking about extending our adventures into 2018 and will definitely head towards the Great Lakes!
This is an incredible list! So excited for you guys! If you guys have a free night while in TX, let’s us know. We could meet up for dinner.
ZimmyGo! Get it yall.
What type of tow vehicle are you using?
Hi Ray, we’re towing with a 2014 Infiniti QX80. So far so good!
I will be following your trip if that is ok! If you rather I not just tell me and I will follow your wishes! I told Way he ought to buy a small travel trailer and meet you guys at 2 locations for a short visit. I knew it was safe to tell him that because the likihood of him spending money is not very great. I think our two trips this year will be to Panama & Patagonia. We have been to S. America several times, even to the Antartic, but never Patagonia.
Absolutely, we’d love for you to follow along! Patagonia sounds nice. One day when Adele is older. And you’re right about Wayne…Lol!
