   Subways, Show Tunes, and a Surprise Flood - a NYC Trip

   Rob and Allie are rolling back toward the Arizona White Mountains after turning a business trip into a full-on New York City adventure. The trip starts with Allie's work at the Federal Reserve (and Rob accidentally landing at the "main table" and becoming the face on every TV in the room), then quickly shifts into tourist mode: the New York Public Library (including the Rose Room and Treasures like the Gutenberg Bible and Winnie-the-Pooh), the Rockettes Christmas Spectacular at Radio City, a killer Italian dinner, and a powerful early-entry tour of the 9/11 Museum that leaves them emotionally drained (in the best, most respectful way). They nerd out on how easy NYC is without a car, rave about the city's legendary pizza, bagels, and pretzels ("it's the water"), and laugh through a major hotel disaster where fire system testing turns into water pouring down elevator shafts—forcing them to climb 25 flights of stairs just to get ready for their Broadway night. Despite the chaos, they score quick pre-show bites thanks to a clutch waiter, then cap the night with Chicago on Broadway, a wild Times Square stroll, and a late subway ride home. Before heading back to Arizona, they squeeze in one more "podcast-related" stop: the real-life building used as The Arconia (The Belnord) from Only Murders in the Building, meet the doorman, and finally walk through Central Park. By the end, they agree: NYC is an amazing place to visit—and an even better place to leave… but they're already plotting a return trip with the kids for the Rockettes (and more Broadway).

   When the Wind Becomes Concerning

   A few stops left us feeling a little bit concerned. Allie and Rob talk about the balance between calming fears and having a plan. ⚠️ Dangers of Wind Storms While RV Camping 1. Falling Trees and Branches • In wooded campgrounds, strong winds can snap large branches or even bring down whole trees onto RVs. Safety Tip: Avoid parking under tall or leaning trees. Pick open or sheltered sites with fewer overhead hazards. ⸻ 2. Awning & Slide-Out Damage • Awnings act like sails, and slide-out toppers can rip away in high winds, often damaging the RV itself. Safety Tip: Retract awnings and slide-outs if a storm is forecast or if winds pick up suddenly. ⸻ 3. Rocking and Instability • Even parked, RVs can sway and shake during strong gusts, making it unsafe or unnerving for occupants. Safety Tip: Use stabilizers, lower jacks fully, and if winds are severe (50+ mph), consider moving to a sturdier shelter. ⸻ 4. Flying Debris Around Camp • Loose gear like chairs, grills, or firewood can turn into dangerous projectiles. Safety Tip: Always secure or store all outdoor equipment when not in use, especially if windy weather is possible. ⸻ 5. Roof, Vents, and Antennas at Risk • Wind storms can tear off vent covers, loosen seals, and damage antennas or satellite dishes. Safety Tip: Inspect your roof regularly, keep vent covers secure, and lower antennas before storms. ⸻ 6. Outdoor Safety Concerns • Walking around camp during a wind storm is risky due to falling limbs or sudden gusts. Safety Tip: Stay inside your RV—or better yet, move to a safer structure if winds are extreme. ⸻ 7. Storm Shelter Awareness • RVs are not built to withstand severe wind storms or tornadoes. Relying solely on your RV for protection can be dangerous. Safety Tip: Always know the nearest storm shelter, bathhouse, or solid building at your campground. If a strong wind storm or tornado is approaching, leave the RV and take shelter there. ⸻ ✅ Bottom line: RVs are great for camping, but they aren’t storm-proof. Secure your gear, retract awnings, avoid trees, and always know where to go if the winds get dangerous. CampH54 is a production of Birdman Media™ www.birdman.media (https://www.birdman.media)

   Sharing a Core Memory with our Children - Fireflies!

   Here’s a look at COMLARA Park—also known as COMLARA Park & Evergreen Lake—in McLean County, Illinois. It’s a beautiful, multi-use recreational area worth exploring: https://www.camplife.com/campground/comlara ⸻ Overview & Highlights Location & Size • COMLARA Park spans approximately 1,300 acres and includes Evergreen Lake, which is around 925 acres   . Activities & Amenities • Outdoor recreation: You can enjoy camping, swimming, boating, fishing, picnicking, hiking, mountain biking, and equestrian use   . • Boating details: Evergreen Lake features a 10 hp motor limit—great for kayaking, sailboat sailing, and paddleboarding. You’ll need a watercraft registration or you can rent at the boat rental facility  . • Beach & concessions: The F.R. Glasener Beach is open daily (no lifeguards—swim at your own risk), and there’s a nearby concession stand  . Camping Facilities • The park offers 156 individual campsites and 2 group campsites. Types include: • Electrified sites (30 amp/50 amp) • Non-electric sites • Primitive walk-in and primitive walk-in group camps  . • Most campsites are seasonal (April 1 to November 1), but sites 1–33 and group camp areas remain open year-round—except during firearm deer hunt weekends   . Reservations & Fees • Campsite reservations for the 2025 season are now being accepted via online, phone, or in-person at the Visitor Center (8 a.m.–6 p.m. daily)  . • Overnight pricing (plus reservation fees): • Electric/50 A: ~$35 in person, ~$38 phone/online • Electric/30 A: ~$32–$35 • Non-electric: ~$29–$32 • McLean County residents get a $2/night discount  . Wildlife & Conservation • The park participates in a White-tailed Deer Management Program. Hunting (archery and firearm) helps reduce overpopulation—deer densities can exceed 60 per square mile, far above ecological carrying capacity (15–20)   . • Hunting seasons: • Archery: October 1–November 11, 2025 • Firearm: November 21–23 and December 4–7, 2025  . • During certain seasons, parts or all of the park may close to general public access for hunting safety   . Community Contributions & Projects • Local Boy Scouts have contributed: • A bridge built by Boy Scout Ian Gresham • Fishing line recycling tubes installed by Oliver Weber • Benches added through another Eagle Scout project   . • Bluebird houses and wood duck nesting structures have also been donated by local craftspeople  . Fireflies — also called lightning bugs — are one of nature’s most magical evening sights, turning summer nights into sparkling light shows. Despite the name, they’re not flies at all — they’re actually a type of beetle from the family Lampyridae. ⸻ How They Glow • Fireflies produce light through a chemical reaction called bioluminescence, which happens in special light-producing organs in their lower abdomen. • The process involves luciferin, luciferase (an enzyme), oxygen, and ATP (cell energy). • The light is “cold” — meaning it doesn’t give off heat — and can be yellow, green, or even bluish, depending on the species. ⸻ Why They Flash 1. Mating Signals – Each species has its own flash pattern so males and females can recognize each other. 2. Predator Deterrence – The light warns predators that fireflies taste bad or are toxic. 3. Communication – Some species use it to signal territory or other social cues. ⸻ Where You’ll See Them • Fireflies love warm, humid environments with lots of vegetation. • They are often found in meadows, forest edges, and near ponds, rivers, or marshes. • In the U.S., they’re common in the Midwest, South, and parts of the East — but rare in drier western regions. ⸻ Life Cycle • Eggs are laid in soil or leaf litter. • Larvae, sometimes called “glowworms,” live in the soil for 1–2 years, eating snails, worms, and other small creatures. • Adults usually live only a few weeks — just long enough to find a mate and lay eggs. ⸻ Conservation Concerns Firefly populations are declining in some areas due to: • Habitat loss (development, light pollution, pesticide use) • Artificial lighting that disrupts mating signals • Environmental changes from climate shifts ⸻ Fun Facts • Some species synchronize their flashing so hundreds blink together — a breathtaking natural display. • In Japan, fireflies (hotaru) are celebrated as symbols of love and the fleeting beauty of life. • Not all fireflies glow — some use scent instead of light to attract mates.

   Hay Kids, Look, The Arch!! - Chicago Trip Stop #5 - St Louis

   We are rolling along and finally get to a place we can see some really cool things. DraftKings at Casino Queen RV Park. We parked acoss the river from St. Louis and have a view of the Arch, but we took the time to go walk the area as well. St. Louis offers a unique mix of American history, modern attractions, and a deep-rooted love for baseball—and the heart of all this action is centered around Downtown St. Louis, where you’ll find the Gateway Arch, Busch Stadium, and a vibrant surrounding district. ⸻ 🏛️ Gateway Arch: The Icon of the Midwest The Gateway Arch is the tallest man-made monument in the U.S., standing 630 feet tall, and symbolizes St. Louis’s role as the “Gateway to the West.” Highlights: • Tram Ride to the Top: You can take a small pod-like tram ride all the way to the top for panoramic views of the Mississippi River and the city skyline. • Museum at the Gateway Arch: A modern, interactive museum beneath the Arch explores westward expansion, Native American history, and St. Louis’s founding. • Gateway Arch National Park: Includes beautifully landscaped grounds, riverfront walking paths, and riverboat cruises nearby. 🛈 Pro tip: Book tram tickets in advance, especially during peak travel season or Cardinals games. ⸻ ⚾ Busch Stadium: Home of the St. Louis Cardinals Just a short walk from the Arch, Busch Stadium is the home of the St. Louis Cardinals, one of the most storied franchises in Major League Baseball. What Makes It Special: • Great skyline views from inside the stadium, with the Arch in the background—especially striking during night games. • Electric atmosphere—Cardinals fans are known for being passionate and loyal, yet friendly to visiting fans. • Ballpark Village right next door adds even more to the game day experience. ⸻ 🏙️ Ballpark Village: Dining, Entertainment & Nightlife Ballpark Village is a mixed-use district adjacent to Busch Stadium designed for fans and tourists alike. What You’ll Find: • Sports bars, rooftop seating, and restaurants like Cardinals Nation, Brew House, and PBR St. Louis. • Live music, event nights, and massive TVs during games—even when the Cardinals are away. • A fun place to walk, dine, and hang out whether you’re going to the game or not. CampH54 is a production of Birdman Media™ www.birdman.media (https://www.birdman.media) ⸻ 🧭 Walking Distance Attractions Around the Arch & Stadium • Old Courthouse: Historic site of the Dred Scott case, located just west of the Arch grounds. • Kiener Plaza: A peaceful green space with fountains and sculptures—great photo ops. • Citygarden Sculpture Park: Public art and landscaping blend with interactive water features. • Mississippi Riverfront: Walk along the river or hop on a riverboat cruise. • St. Louis Aquarium at Union Station and Ferris wheel are just a short trolley or drive away.

   The Anxiety and Horror of Gas Stops - And The OH S%^T Moment!

   😰 Why It Feels Stressful: • Tight turning space and low clearance • Other drivers being impatient or in your blind spots • Not knowing if you’ll be able to get out once you’re in • Feeling pressure from people waiting behind you • Fuel pumps being in awkward locations or too close together ⸻ ✅ Tips to Reduce RV Fuel Stop Stress: 1. Plan Fuel Stops in Advance Use apps like: • GasBuddy – to compare prices • RV Life, Togo RV, or iExit – to find RV-friendly stops with room to maneuver • TruckMap – helpful if you use diesel and want large pull-through bays Look for truck stops (like Pilot, Love’s, TA, Buc-ee’s)—they often have more space, higher clearances, and easier entry/exit. ⸻ 2. Aim for Pull-Through Pumps • Look for pumps parallel to the store (not perpendicular) or on outer lanes. • Avoid older gas stations in town centers—they’re often too tight. ⸻ 3. Fuel When It’s Less Busy • Early mornings or late evenings are quieter • Weekdays are usually better than weekends or holidays ⸻ 4. Do a Visual Check Before Pulling In If you’re unsure: • Park nearby and walk the layout before committing. • Check for clear exit paths, pole placement, and ceiling overhangs. ⸻ 5. Use a Spotter if Needed If you’re traveling with someone, have them hop out and guide you in tight spots. ⸻ 6. Practice Backing and Turning (When toad is uphooked) Confidence comes with familiarity. Practice in an empty parking lot or use cones to get used to your turning radius and length. ⸻ 7. Give Yourself Grace Everyone who drives a big rig or RV has had an awkward gas stop. Most people around you are more curious than annoyed—and the impatient ones? You’ll never see them again. ⸻ 🧠 Mindset Shift: Think of fuel stops as part of the adventure, not a test. You’re piloting a mobile house—respect! You’re allowed to take your time, breathe, and move at your pace. CampH54 is a production of Birdman Media™ www.birdman.media (https://www.birdman.media)

    Well this was a Fun First - Cracker Barrel Overnight - Chicago Trip Stop #1

    This was the beginning of our Chicago trip and we decided to see how this option might play out. The tempature was cool enough that we could sleep with windows open and a fan. We stayed at this location - https://www.crackerbarrel.com/Locations/States/nm/albuquerque/245/ Here are Tips for staying at Cracker Barrel yourself. Staying overnight at a Cracker Barrel in your RV can be a convenient and budget-friendly option during a road trip—but there are a few important things to know. Here are practical tips to make it a smooth experience: ⸻ 🛑 1. Call Ahead or Ask In Person • Not all Cracker Barrels allow overnight RV parking. • Call the specific location or ask the manager politely when you arrive. • A friendly, respectful approach goes a long way. ⸻ 📍 2. Know Where to Park • Most Cracker Barrels have designated RV/bus parking spots, often along the outer edge or rear of the lot. • Park as far from the main entrance as possible to avoid disrupting regular customer flow. ⸻ 🌙 3. One-Night Stay Only • This is meant to be a short-term, one-night stay, not camping. • No slides out (unless absolutely necessary), no awnings, no grills, and no leveling jacks on asphalt unless approved. ⸻ 🍳 4. Be a Good Guest (and Customer) • Grab a meal—either dinner or breakfast—as a courtesy for using their space. • It’s a nice way to say thank you, and they do make great pancakes and coffee. ⸻ 🗑 5. Leave No Trace • Don’t dump gray water or trash in the lot. • Take everything with you and leave the spot cleaner than you found it. ⸻ 🔇 6. Keep It Quiet & Low-Profile • Keep lights dim, noise to a minimum, and generator use avoided or extremely limited. • Treat it like you’re a guest in someone’s driveway. ⸻ 🧭 7. Have a Backup Plan • If a Cracker Barrel doesn’t allow overnight stays or the lot is full, have an alternate location in mind (like a nearby Walmart, Cabela’s, or truck stop).
