After a change in previous plans, we had to figure out where to spend the month of January, and ended up flocking to all the popular spots for full-time RVers (“snowbirds”) that spend their winter in these warm southern areas. CALIFORNIA:  Joshua Tree Joshua Tree National Park and the BLM land at its south entrance is a mecca for RVers […]

This quarantine has been weird for everyone. I think that a lot of people are going to come away from this pretty scarred and scared of social interactions, and maybe even with weakened immune systems from sitting at home for two months. Quarantine for us hasn’t really been that different. We’ve been living in a box now for a year [...]

After Canada, we made the drive back to LA for a few jobs. It worked out extremely well that we weren’t as busy with jobs during August and September when we had several friends visit and spent two weeks in British Columbia. But after all that play time up north, we were bound to get called back to LA for […]

We crossed the border into Canada and headed into Vancouver, even though it was completely pouring the entire time. Since we had done a lot of hiking lately (during our week in Glacier), Blake had an extensive list of places he wanted to check out for dirt biking across BC. Unfortunately, since it rained for two weeks straight, we didn’t […]

After Glacier, since we were already so far north, we had to visit our friends in Seattle. I gave Mary and Danny about a years notice that we’d be visiting them at some point along our journey. I guessed that we would be visiting them in April or May, so I was only about 4 months off. They live in […]

The process of switching to the new camper was a much longer process than we expected and we ended up staying in Denver for about 2 and a half months (also due to staying pretty busy with work during those months). We spent the next week taking everything out of the old camper, (storing most of it on Clinton’s lawn […]

Our first two months on the road have been full of adventure. Not necessarily the adventures we were planning, but still have taken us across the map, and taught us a lot about the lifestyle we are living. Originally our plan was to spend the fall in southern Colorado, then make our way through some Utah and Arizona national parks. […]

Our first week has been a little hectic. We moved into the camper August 31st, but we didn’t actually leave Denver for a week as we finished up some repairs, figured out some logistics, and tied up loose ends. We finally got new tires on our truck, but it took two tries, after the shop mounted the wrong size tires […]

We got out of our rental house mid-day on August 31st. We moved everything we want to bring with us into the camper, and everything else is going to my parents garage. Our final moving days were a bit more stressful than planned. We ran out of time to do a lot of the projects that needed to get done, […]

The first question was whether we would do this year long trip in the camper we bought last summer, even with the leak and the number of issues prevalent with a 20 year old camper, or if we needed to upgrade to a nicer camper. The decision was easy for us. We had no reason to want to purchase a […]
