My bed in the new camper is a Murphy bed. After the crazy japanese mattress folding thing we had to accomplish the same thing in our original camper, watching the bad miraculously appear, completely made, never ceases to satisfy.

We just booked 2 more weeks at OBX. We’re just not ready to leave yet!

Really enjoying kiting as a travel friendly, family friendly hobby. They’re lots of fun, and can easily fit inside any RV setup I can imagine.

It’s a dreary, blustery weekend in the OBX. It’s like the universe is trying to remind me about when it sucks to be in a smaller rig. No regrets though, we’re built for this!

Still catching up on a number of things thanks to this week’s travel, but I still found some time to fly my kite in the dunes at Nags Head. I love it here!

Kate published a story that talks about our “side quest” this past week, where we purchased a smaller camper, moved into it, and put our existing bigger camper into storage. Her quick thinking saved us A LOT of miles.
I especially like this image that compares our original camper with the two campers we now own.

Okay, we dropped our big camper off in storage for the Summer. It took all day to get it delivered there, but it’s in a sensible position where we can easily access it without going out of our way later this year. Today, we are finally taking the small one back to OBX. Can’t wait to be done driving.

So yesterday, we went and purchased a new (MUCH smaller) 24′ camper that’s more similar to our OG rig. We intend to use this all summer for travel, and swap out for the big rig during winter when we’re less-active.
This was a whole heckin’ process and I’ll get into it in a blog post when I come up for air. I’m super excited about it though!
Moving into the new camper at the dealership This is going to be a lot easier to tug around when we’re adventuring in the warm months. A familiar view. This one isn’t too different than our original camper. Feels like home. -

Exhausted. We left OBX this morning and are parked about 300 miles west in North Carolina for logistical reasons. Lots going on right now. Exciting, but tiring. I’ll share more when I have everything set.
