our stories
This is where our stories unfold.
From our first RV to the ones we roll with now, this is where we share the stories about the rigs we've owned, the places we've visited, and the lessons we're still learning along the way.
We're glad you're here—and we hope you enjoy the ride.
Our Travel Trailer: Big Mama
🎶 " All, all that you dream, comes through shinin’ silver lining.”
— Little Feat, “All That You Dream” (1975)
✨ We didn’t know it at the time, but Big Mama was all that we dreamed.
A Long Time Comin’
🎶 “It’s been a long time comin'… “
— Sam Cooke, “A Change Is Gonna Come” (1964)
🚐 We didn’t find the right setup overnight. Every one took time and a lot of trial and error.
Cape May Food Tour
🎶 "Roll up, roll up for the magical mystery tour. Step right this way.”
— The Beatles, “Magical Mystery Tour” (1967)
🍽️ We cooked at our campsite most of the trip, but for some meals, we just wanted a local bite. Our magical food tour began.
Cape May, Then and Now
🎶 "Strangers stoppin’ strangers, just to shake their hand.”
— The Grateful Dead, “Scarlet Begonias” (1974)
📍 It’s hard to believe we’ve been coming to Cape May, NJ for nearly 30 years.
The Tale of Two Rigs
🎶 “ And I don’t want to miss a thing.”
— Aerosmith, “I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing” (1998)
🚐 We switch between two rigs, a truck camper and a travel trailer, depending on the road ahead.
Our Little Jayco
🎶 "I And Love And You."
— The Avett Brothers, "I And Love And You" (2009)
🚐 Our Little Jayco. It was the one that made us feel like RV’ers for real.
How THE TIDY RV Began
🎶 “Let the good times roll… “
— Louie Jordan, “Let The Good Times Roll” (1946)
🚐 Our RV had become a storage unit on wheels.
