200 Square Feet with Catio Views

This is a diary of our unique life on the road with our two cats. I write this so we remember what we did and where. Follow along if you are curious!

  • Rainbirding in El Paso

    Hellooooo! Hope all is well with you! We have stumbled upon perfect weather. We only meant to stay in El Paso for one week. When all is said and done, we will have been here for eight weeks! Sunny and 70 most days. I can see what attracts snowbirds, or in our case, rainbirds. El Read more

  • If you read this blog on a regular basis, thank you and apologies for the long gap between posts. And if you are ever curious about us, we are a quick text or call away (if you know us that way)! Short & Sweet Summary to Catch Up We are currently roosting in sunny El Read more

  • To sum up my thoughts after two years on the road…grateful. Then We moved out of our apartment and into our travel trailer on July 23, 2023. Our lease was up, and it made sense. We had been purging and donating our belongings for months leading up to our launch. We had also acquired our Read more

  • Our second time through Louisiana kept us south of I-10 in the land of huge live oaks, gators, bayous, Tabasco sauce and rainforest-like humidity that actually created droplets on our A/C vents…Let’s geaux! Abbeville, LA We stayed in Palmetto Island State Park near Abbeville, a quaint town in southern Louisiana. While the roads to the Read more

  • Driving all the way across Texas makes “Everything’s Bigger in Texas” make perfect sense! And in the process we went from dry desert to hot, humid, thick soup in the crack of a whip. Van Horn, TX The drive to Van Horn took us through El Paso which meant that we were just a few Read more

  • New Mexico…Briefly

    The first time we went through New Mexico was across from the east. This time we did a quick north-south tour. We would like to return one day specifically to visit Santa Fe…when the temperatures are more humane. Sadly, the sweet, subtle bubblegum smell of Russian Olive trees is fading as we move further south. Read more

  • There is so much to see in Utah that I am sure we only scratched the surface. It’s pretty amazing! Layton, Ogden and Salt Lake City (and Our First Dose of Hot Weather in Ages) Hill Air Force Base We spent a week in the FamCamp at Hill Air Force Base in Layton, UT which Read more

  • From a spooky and beautiful moonscape to an internment camp, we saw things we never imagined in a state best known for potatoes. Upset Travel Cats & An RV Resort The travel day that took us into Idaho was a little too long. We typically shoot for a maximum of three hours, but it took Read more

  • Wow, I can’t believe it has been nearly two years since we first dragged our camper across the country from Ohio to Washington State! There is still so much to see and dear friends and family to visit, so off we go and here we come! Waterfalls & Banana Slugs on the Oregon Trail Our Read more

  • All Good Things…

    The Sealth has ferried us away from San Juan Island and deposited us on Fidalgo Island. From there we drove over Deception Pass to Whidbey Island for a few days before we begin our much-anticipated journey to the east coast. San Juan Island Memories (Congrats Leslie & Anthony!) Our two months volunteering at San Juan Read more
