What is Charter?

Well, C.H.A.R.T.E.R.  TRIP RV SCHOOL  is what my school this year is. Charter stands for:
Cross-country
Home School
Adventure
Rv
Traveling
Educational
Road trip

For sixth grade, I will be traveling across the USA and seeing what there is to see. I will start in Buckley, WA and visit Nova Scotia, Canada, then drive down the east coast and spend the winter in Florida and Southern states. Then,  I will cross over to the west coast and go up finishing on the edge of Gulf Islands, Canada and dropping into Buckley. Along the way I will be blogging what i'm doing for school (& fun),  and posting pictures and videos. I will be traveling in a Winnebago with my Mom as Dad has a new job.  Excluding Alaska and Hawaii,  I will hit every state!! (I have already been to those two states, anyways.) By the end of the year I will have seen every state, and have a blog full of my journeys!!!! But before I can have all the fun we have to research.  We research where we spend the night, cool attractions, hidden adventures, festivals and boring stuff like weather, travel time and gas costs. Thanks to AAA trip planning and Dana, who works for their Puyallup office, routing our way across the continent is so much easier. She made us cool trip books so we won't get lost. If you are a AAA member and you don't use this free and painless help, you are missing out an all-helpful service. AAA is so cool!

After all the planning we are going on a shakedown cruise in September, then we leave on October 1st, then hit NY by Hall-o-ween and arrive in Florida before Christmas.

Have something to suggest we not miss along the way?  World's Largest Ball of Twine?  Hotel shaped like a beagle?  Want to have us see something for you and take a picture?   Email us, Post Comments or Challenge us to do something cool or funny and sponsor the activity by donating money to our MILEPOST ACCOUNT at Wells Fargo Bank. (Must be kid appropriate).  We'll get proof of our challenge being completed and send it to you so you can feel like you are on the trip too!

You can follow us on Facebook soon, this blog or my moms blog.  Our email is ChartertripRV@gmail.com.  

Happy Trails!
