the ADVENTURES of Ruby D

...lets go hiking, and get out of town! Seriously. We needed to have a date, just Brock and I. We weren't one of those couples that got married and had a baby right away... we had this whole life before Ruby. And while we wouldn't trade our perfect little girl, the joy she brings, her smiles, and her fun way of life for anything, we sometimes do yearn for a "real" hike... not just a mile walk through the woods, stopping every 10 feet to examine a new rock.

Our very first trip with Ruby in our new Four Wheel Camper was to Shenandoah National Park , in April of 2017. We live in NOVA, and drove over a back way, through winding country roads that eventually led to the foothills of the mountains. It was a lovely drive, and Ruby even slept for some of it: a whole 45 minutes of the 2 hour 15 minute drive (eye roll). We stayed in Big Meadow Campground for $17/per night. We don't need much with our camper: no water or electric necessary
