Welcome to West Virginia!

Travel Stage: Ohio to Alderson, WV
Travel Date Range: October 11 – 13
Summary: After a night at a Boondocker’s Welcome site, a day-long biking tour of Charleston, WV, and another night in the most scenic Walmart we’ve ever seen, we make our way to Alderson, West Virginia.

From our visit to Whitehouse, Ohio, we traveled on to just south of Columbus where we stopped at a Boondockers Welcome location. Boondockers Welcome is a community of folks who, for just $25 a year, allow others to park overnight on their property for free. Usually there is no water or electric, so you essentially boondock for a night, hence the name. This was our first time trying it, and we had a great experience! Thanks to Randy and Vikki Turner for their spacious parking spot!

Travel Stage: Stop between Michigan to West Virginia
Travel Date: October 11, 2014
Summary: We stopped in Whitehouse, Ohio for a quick visit with a horse and to verify the outcome of a hard decision.

In order to go on this adventure, I had to do something about my horses. We were boarding them at the time, and it wouldn’t have been fair to them to just leave them behind. Not to mention that horses are expensive. The monthly board expense would be a little steep once we left our 9-5 jobs, plus deworming, vaccinations, farrier, and any other miscellaneous expenses that come up (and they often do).

I had two horses. One that was my first horse that I had had since I was a child, and the other was a college graduation gift of sorts...more on that below.

My horses: Indi (left) and Jupiter (right). Sorry he's a little dirty in this picture - white horses are difficult to keep clean!
