Getting Set up!

Getting Set up!

We’ve been on the road fulltime since September 2016 and just got back from an EPIC trip to Alaska, where we saw more rookie RVers struggling to set up their RV than ever.  In addition, recently we have had a lot of people reach out to us that are just starting their RV adventures, looking…

Exploring Canyonlands

Exploring Canyonlands

Utah has some amazing national parks.  This trip through only 3 of them were on our route.  First we saw Capitol Reef, then Arches, and finally we went to Canyonlands. Our first stop was at the visitor center; we got Jr. Ranger books and learned about a ranger talk at the far end of the…

Arches National Park

We packed up in the morning and headed toward Moab Utah. We knew the weather was about 10 degrees hotter in Moab than where we just were. We were looking forward spending a couple hours driving in the car so we could have air conditioning for a little while.  We had read online that it’s…

We didn’t do much research beforehand, so we didn’t really know what to expect. The first stop was at the visitor…

We made our way to Bend Oregon to visit some friends. That was the purpose of the trip. We just got back into the Cyclone and were ready to visit some friends after our trip to Alaska and share some wilderness stories and hear about their summer. We had a warm welcome as we pulled…

Souvenirs

Souvenirs

Souvenirs, everyone loves to get them, but what do you do with them once you get too many? Especially when living in an RV. Especially when living in an RV with 7 people. There isn’t much extra space for souvenirs so when we first started traveling we narrowed it down to three. Three souvenirs that…
