It was messy and it was fabulous. We were lucky enough to get some off-season inspiration from a reader, who urged us to head down to the nature center at Island Beach State Park the next time we were hit with some winter wanderlust. This morning,...

Grounds for Sculpture: Why Haven’t You Been There?
Jan 14, 2014 RVFamilyTravelAtlas
Let's get the important part out of the way first. You need to go to the Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ. Immediately. And then you should go back many, many times like we are planning on doing with our new, sweet membership. I had thought...
Where’s Your Winter Wander-land? Breaking out of the Cabin…
Jan 11, 2014 RVFamilyTravelAtlas
We've been in a deep freeze up here in the NorthEast and, if your children are anything like mine, things are starting to get a little loopy in the house. I measure my boys' pent up energy in karate chops per minute and the number has been rising rapidly. So when I...
Monster Jam vs. Lively Little Campers (Spoiler Alert: We Lost)
Jan 5, 2014 RVFamilyTravelAtlas
I have a confession. I was one of those 28 year olds who swore I would never get sucked in to all that kid junk. You know the type--the non-parent who swears they will always be far too cool to play Raffi on loop in the car or stand with their head through the cut out...

Nov 25, 2013 RVFamilyTravelAtlas
A Day at the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Preserve So the government shutdown ended, the National Parks reopened, and we finally got to make our annual trip to the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Preserve last weekend. If you think birding sounds boring,...
Storming the White House…No Government Shutdown Here!
Oct 17, 2013 RVFamilyTravelAtlas
As Stephanie mentioned in her last past, our trip to the Edwyn B. Forsythe Wildlife Preserve was a complete bust. Largely because we did not know it was a NATIONAL preserve. Thanks again Congress. Your approval rating finally hit zero in our station wagon last...
Oops…I Didn’t Realize it was the Edwin Forsythe NATIONAL Perserve
Oct 12, 2013 RVFamilyTravelAtlas
This is getting a bit ridiculous. I completely overlooked the word national in the name of this refuge. Guess what that means? The place we went to visit since D.C. was shut down? Well, it was also closed on account of the, shall we say, situation in our beloved...
Autumn in South Jersey: You Don’t Need a RV for This Daytrip
Oct 12, 2013 RVFamilyTravelAtlas
(You don't need a camper for this trip...) A couple of months ago, Jeremy and I decided this fall would be the perfect time to take the boys to Washington D.C. for the first time. We picked Columbus Day weekend and booked the campground. Quite the coincidence that...
This is How the Summer Ends….See You Next Year, Cape May

The Curse of Hawk Mountain: Two Times is Not a Charm
Sep 25, 2013 RVFamilyTravelAtlas
Two years ago, in late October, we took Max and Theo to Allentown for a long weekend. It was beautiful. The weather was perfect and we enjoyed the Lehigh Valley Zoo and a great train ride through the country. There was pumpkin picking and a halloween parade....
