2022 brought us a visit to Death Valley National Park, an area once described by The New York Times as “3 million acres of weird.” But first things first: meet our new family member and...
We are Philip and Tessa, and yes … WE’RE THE MILLERS! We’re endlessly curious and fascinated by this big, charming country. Hitchhike along with us!
Our Adventures
We are Tessa and Philip Miller!
First things first ... we don't actually think we're charming (though our moms might disagree) ... rather, we have continued with the "lucky charm(ing)" shamrock theme with both our rigs.
We bought our first RV in 2013, when Philip was planning to participate in RAGBRAI, a legendary week-long bicycle ride where you and 20,000 of your closest friends ride your bike across the state of Iowa in one big epic rolling party. Rather than tent camping, we thought it would be a lot more enjoyable to be in an RV after each long day on a narrow bike seat. We loved the experience and have never looked back!
We occasionally reside in Scottsdale, Arizona, but try to be on the road in our Fleetwood Southwind 34C RV for six out of every twelve months. We have continued to enjoy the ease of traveling, and enjoying all the comforts of home, while visiting unique places and seeing amazing sights. If we are not on the open road, we are dreaming about being on the road, or plotting and planning future adventures!

After a full month in Wisconsin, it was weird to flip the page in our atlas (yes, we still use a paper atlas) to a different state … in fact, a series of different states, as we spent the last...
La Crosse, Wisconsin, is only 30 miles from our previous stop in Sparta, but has a completely different vibe. Having three colleges in a relatively small town means that the population is mostly...
If you cringe at the thought of visiting a museum, finding them to be a bore or a drag, perhaps you’ve been going to the wrong museums! This country is chock-full of the most exciting, most...
#1 most asked question about our RV travels: “What’s the coolest hike you’ve done?” (Runner-Up: “Who dumps the sewer?”) That’s a complicated question...
“COVID” and “GOOD” don’t usually appear in the same sentence, but after 27 stops over 3 months throughout the Carolinas, Georgia and Texas during the early stages of the...
