Just On Our Way

Welcome to Episode 12! We explored magnificent Big Sur off the California coast during the biggest storm of the season and the waves did not disappoint. We also spent 2 weeks in Monterey hiking the trails around Point Lobos State Natural Reserve, watching the sea life swim by at the Monterey aquarium, exploring the cute shops and pristine sandy beach in Carmel-by-the-Sea, along with a final day of sea otter spotting at Moss Landing. In this week's episode we also bring you behind the scenes on all the things that have broken in our trailer since we left home! *** 🏕 Pismo State Beach North Beach Campground 🎡 Pismo State Beach Monarch Butterfly Grove 🏕 Big Sur Campgrounds & Cabins 🎡 Pfeiffer Beach 🎡 COAST Big Sur 🎡 The Henry Miller Memorial Library 🏕 Marina Dunes RV Resort 🎡 Marina State Beach 🎡 Point Lobos State Natural Reserve 🎡 17-Mile Drive 🎡 Monterey Bay Aquarium 🎡 Moss Landing State Beach 🍽 Gianni's Pizza 🍽 Julia's Vegetarian Restaurant 🍽 Petra Restaurant 🍽 5th Avenue Deli & Catering 🍽 Carmel Valley Coffee Roasting Company 🍽 Angelina's Bakery 🍽 Fredo's Vegan Taco Truck

Welcome to Episode 11! We enjoyed our time in Palm Springs. We hiked to the Black Mountain Fire Tower and ended the day in the idyllic town of Idyllwild. We also had our first overnight camping trip in the Alu Cab at Joshua Tree National Park. From there we headed to LA and watched Caden dip his toes in the Pacific Ocean for the first time! We had a Christmassy time in Solvang where we tried many danishes and hung out with the ostriches too. We also take you through our 2 week shakedown trip, our first real experience living in our trailer.

We visited the Taos Pueblo, which is one of the oldest continuously inhabited communities in the United States. We arrived in Santa Fe in time for Día de los Muertos and we took an amazing sunset hike. We finished our stay in New Mexico by visiting White Sands National Park where we went sledding on the sand dunes! *** 🏕 Taos Valley RV Park 🏕 Santa Fe Skies RV Park 🏕 Zia Skies RV Park (Alamogordo) 🍽 Wilder Bakeshop and Espresso 🍽 Bread Shop 🎡 Taos Pueblo 🎡 Bandelier National Monument 🎡 Los Alamos 🎡 Meow Wolf 🎡 White Sands National Park

Welcome to Episode 7! We are one week into our stay in Moab Utah! It was a rocky arrival that had us considering alternate plans, but after a sunrise visit to Arches National Park and a sunset hike at Dead Horse Point State Park, Moab started to win us over. We also continue with Part 2 of our trailer purchase and how one simple facebook message stopped us in our tracks. *** 🏕 Sun Outdoors Canyonlands 🎡 Arches National Park 🎡 Dead Horse Point State Park 🎡 Swanny City Park 🎡 Rotary Park 🎡 Moab Giants 🎡 Gemini Bridges Trail 🚐 Lance Trailer

Welcome to Episode 5! We are just on our way from Glacier National Park in Montana. We crossed the border from Canada into the US and spent the last week surrounded by beautiful mountains. The weather got the better of us several times, we broke our Starlink, and it snowed!  We also dive into what it’s like living and working full-time on the road with a family. The ups and downs and how we handle expectations versus reality.  *** 🏕️ St. Mary / East Glacier KOA Holiday 🎡 Glacier National Park
