In planning out this adventure, we thought long and hard, and decided that bringing along bicycles would be a good idea. We then came to the realization that we would need at least 6 bikes. Then comes the dilemma, where do we put them? We searched long and hard for the best solution. We are […]
We have been looking for something to carry The little Chunk around when hiking, etc. We decided to go with the Osprey Poco Plus. We shopped around, and did a lot of comparisons, and this one seemed best for us and our budget. This thing is packed with features!! Its adjustable a variety of different […]

The Excursion needed some love, Today I replaced the shocks all the way around, the steering dampener, replaced the bump stops and installed manual locking hubs. I also am installing a CAT fuel filter system. Anyone that knows Cummins engines, knows that contaminants and debris can damage injectors in a heartbeat, and thats an expensive […]
