My Photography Bucket List

Full Time RV Travel is on the horizon once again!

As many of you know, my home is on the market here in Sevierville, Tennessee, and my husband and I are going to be embarking on a new adventure in our RV! In 2015-2016 we sold everything we had in Illinois and traveled the country in our RV for a full year, and then landed here in The Smoky Mountains area of East Tennessee. Well, after 7 years here we are ready to move on once again! As soon as our home is sold, we will be hitting the road in our 45-foot RV, towing my green Jeep and seeing America some more! We can’t wait!! If you know anyone that wants a GREAT house in a great neighborhood in Sevierville, TN, here’s the link to my listing: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/209-N-Riverview-Cir-Sevierville-TN-37862/81464753_zpid/

As soon as we get a contract, we will be hitting the road, as all the closing paperwork can be done online anyways. So, where should we go? Well, that’s the problem – we can’t decide which way to go first! In 2015-2016 we spent a lot of time south and west. We have spent a lot of time south and east since living here. The northeast is sadly lacking – we have never been there. But it’s February and nobody wants to go there right now! There’s a whole host of places that I want to see (and photograph), at certain times of the year:

*Sedona, AZ with snow on the red rocks
*The Tulips blooming in Washington State
*The Lavender blooming in Washington State
*A superbloom out west in California and/or Arizona
*All of Utah! We have been to Arches National Park. So much more to see there!
*Yosemite
*Yellowstone – we’ve been there but it’s been a few years
*Autumn in the Northeast – Vermont in particular
*Alaska! This has been on our list for so many years! We’re ready!!
*Maine – I want to go there and eat ALL the lobster!
*Montana – Glacier National Park
*Oregon – Thor’s Well and Oneonta Narrows in particular, but all of Oregon as well
*Washington – Jade Lake. Sigh…

I feel like when we traveled for that whole year in 2015-2016 that we barely scratched the surface. We went to a lot of places, but oh man, there is so much more to see!! I may never buy a home anywhere again! This list is just a tip of the iceberg of where I want to go, and I will use this list (as well as my travel Pinterest boards at www.pinterest.com/carolmellema.)

Stay tuned! We’re hoping to get this home sold soon and hit the road for more adventure! Come join us! I have made a YouTube channel HERE for our friends and family to follow along on our journey. We’d love to have you along too!!
