Our journey from South Florida to Alaska continues! In this episode, we take you along as we drive our motorhome from Texas, straight North through Oklahoma and Kansas, up to Nebraska while dodging Spring weather!
We don't usually travel with a bunch of back-to-back stays in RV parks and campgrounds, but we're doing our best to travel around bad weather as we drive our motorhome from South Florida over to Texas and then up to the Canadian border on our way to Alaska!
📍 This episode was filmed on Interstate 35, US Highway 81 and Interstate 80 in April 2025. We take you along as we drive from Lewisville TX to Doniphan NE (just outside of Grand Island) in 3 days with stops at a huge casino in Oklahoma and RV campgrounds in Kansas and Nebraska.
We share what the roads look like, if it's easy to find fuel on the Kansas Turnpike and the US Highway, and what kind of condition the RV parks are in before the summer season.
It's a roadtrip unlike any other we've ever taken. We think of it as the ultimate RV road trip and this is episode 4!
