WELCOME

Welcome. The Two Leos (My Trusty Companion and I) are glad you stopped by. I have created this site to document and share our adventures as we travel around the United States. In 2011, these travels were limited to weekend outings and vacations. We used these to explore areas which will be visited more extensively in the future. Beginning in 2012, we expanded our travels as we transition to the full-time RV lifestyle. Check back from time to time to see our wanderings.

Got to get OUTA HERE!!!

Here we go!!!
Day one of the escape...the Leos make a break for it.

We hit the road about 10:00 this morning. At 3:00 this afternoon, while stopped at a rest stop outside Quanah, Texas, I took the picture above. Clearly we have waited a little too long to make our break. The mountains are still two days away. I hope we make it.....so does Leo...

Pappy...I'm HOT!!!
We are now stopped for the evening at Ole Towne Cotton Gin RV Park in Goodlett, Texas.

Ole Towne Cotton Mill
It has now cooled down to 97° outside, the air conditioner has it down to 90° inside. So, I think we'll make it.

As a tribute to starting a new phase of my pre-retirement, I shaved off my beard and mustache. Seemed like a good idea at the time. Now....I'm growing it back. More news later.
