Mooch docking, cheeseboards and the end of an epic journey.
February 15th, 2021- Fairhope, Alabama & Pensacola, Florida It down poured all night in Fairhope, so much so that it flooded BILL-E’s parking lot, where we were staying.

NOLA, BAMA and a missing bumper.
February 11, 2021 Houston, Texas— New Orleans, Louisiana You experience a thunderstorm differently when living in a camper.

Everything’s Bigger in Texas
Guadalupe Mountains National Park- January 27th, 2021 Everything’s bigger in Texas. The gas stations, grocery stores, driving lanes and chicken sandwiches.

Yuccas, Yoga and a COVID-19 Thanksgiving
Joshua Tree, California November 17th-19th We said goodbye to Huntington Beach with little hesitation, knowing our stay there cut into our time in Joshua Tree, but for good reason. It was about a three hour drive and luckily Berk slept the whole way. It was refreshing to get away from the hecticness and out of…
The Huntington Beach Chronicles
Huntington Beach, California November 11th-November 17th Where do I even begin? Huntington Beach gave us all the feels.

The driver was clutching a handle of…
