The journey to this park was fun. We got more dispersed camping in, stopped to visit friends along the way, and found free camping behind the 50,000 Silver Dollar Bar in Haugan, Montana. Glacier is a beautiful park, especially in the fall when we were there. Best of all, we finally saw our first bear! … More Glacier National Park
Olympic National Park is near and dear to our hearts, as it is where we went on one of our first camping trips ‘back in the day’. We returned to Sol Duc for a little stroll down memory lane. We noticed something different about how this park manages their campsites, and really wish more parks … More Olympic National Park
We think the repairs are done. Before we wander too far, we thought we should revisit parks close to home. First up, the exquisite Mt. Rainier National Park. Even though we were still in the middle of wildfire season, a recent rain cleared the air a bit, and we were able to enjoy the amazing … More Mt. Rainier National Park
We finally made it back to Washington and could really get a good look at the extent of the damage to the camper. Turns out, it wasn’t just the frame. That was just the tip of the iceberg. There were clear signs of water damage that went back for who knows how many years. The … More Camper Repairs
Next to Sequoia, is Kings Canyon National Park. We were lucky to find a somewhat secluded campsite in the campground, with regular visits from a family of deer. At this point, the cracked frame was visibly getting worse, so we were happy to be close to trail heads and able to take a leisurely … More Kings Canyon National Park
Our plan was to make the journey home to repair the camper while visiting as many parks as we safely could along the way. In addition to our own challenges, we needed to negotiate around many wildfires raging in California. There was a bit of a haze in the air, and the smell of smoke … More Sequoia National Park
More food! On a recent sisters’ vacation to a certain mouse house, we had some delicious skewers at a stand by Tarzan’s treehouse. Here is our twist on a compilation of copycat recipes we found online. You can adjust some portions for your taste – like adding more pepper and garlic. Yum! Ingredients for Sauce: … More Yummy Beef Skewers
Heading south along the California coast, we stumbled upon some roadside waterfront camping at the Rincon Parkway Campground near Faria Beach. The amenities were limited, with just a port-a-potty, but the view more than made up for it. It seemed to be a pretty popular camping area, with all available spaces vanishing within an hour … More California Beaches
Planning meals can be a challenge, especially in our tiny home on wheels. It is easy to want to go out to eat more than we should. Breakfast is often a scrambled egg or two, but then there are dishes to wash. Bleh – who wants to spend time on dishes? We’d rather go explore … More Meal Prep: Breakfast!
Our amazing Hearst Castle guide raved about a cafe in Morrow Bay, so of course, we had to go check it out. As we neared the parking lot, we saw something from hubby’s past. There sat a Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicle (DSRV). In the 1960s, hubby’s father was one of the chief design engineers of … More Morrow Bay
