My RV’s heater is on the fritz. We’re going to replace the thermostat and HOPEFULLY it will fix the problem. The heater still blows hot air, it just turns off at inappropriate times.

Something I’ve learned during our cross-country brewery/winery travels – bad wine, and bad beer is everywhere. “award winning” doesn’t mean it’s good, it just means it was better than the competition. I suppose that’s what makes good booze so good, right?

We got ourselves in a small pickle. We didn’t schedule one of our HH stays early-enough. Two of our locations were fully booked this weekend and now we have to figure out a place to stay. Boondocker’s Welcome to the rescue! Definitely want to get better at the whole BLM thing.

The little engine that could.

I love watching my toddler kick into high-gear when they hear me say “IMMA GONNA GET THAT BELLY!!!!” 😂. It never gets old.

Thinking about embracing Skoolie life 👀👀

What an interesting tale of a person who went the extra miles to solve a mystery in Death Valley. otherhand.org/home-page/sear…

Also I’m most talkative in the evening and I’m in freaking PST so most people I know are sleeping and I’m all like “dude, you should do this.” But dude is sleeping.

I often struggle with separating “motivational speak” with “nuance”. For example, I want to say “if you can try RV life, do it. If you can’t, do it.” But I also realize not everyone can do it, but I also don’t want excuses to stop people…how do you strike the balance?

I think another way to say it…in the east, camping is a hobby. out west, camping feels more like a lifestyle.
