This is the first in a five part series on how to design your own system, no matter if it’s a large array to run AC units, a small camper van, or something in between! First and foremost, let’s cover some RV electrical basics! We are now part way through our second year with our…
Recently, we realized most of our content is either a some sort of project, or an outdoor adventure. Considering our name, that’s probably pretty fitting. However, it really isn’t a complete picture of what RV life is like. Most days are actually spent at our campsite. Whether that be in an actual campground, or boondocking,…
After years of living in an RV and traveling, we have definitely had the opportunity to test out a lot of items related to the RV lifestyle. Some things have been invaluable, while others really aren’t worth the hype. If you’re an RVer or want to become an RVer in the future, you might want…
Thor’s Well and Spouting Horn are two iconic features on the Central Oregon Coast. Located within the Cape Perpetua Scenic area, they make for an easy and spectacular stop right off of Highway 101.

Rails to Trails bike paths are the best! Mostly flat, these trails typically go for miles and have lots of parking options and access points. That means you can have an easy stroll, long distance bike ride, or anything in between. Summer thunderstorms are a common in the mountains. Knowing that a long distance ride…
The quieter side of the Tetons does not disappoint! While Grand Teton National Park draws in record crowds this year, we continued exploring Teton Valley on the west side. We eventually made our way up to Grand Targhee Resort for their scenic chairlift ride. At almost 10,000 feet, the top of this ski resort offers…
Today we’ll tackle the question: RV VS House? What’s better? Well, that depends… After several years on the road, we have have met all sorts of other travelers. It’s easy for RVers to meet other like minded people. After all, campgrounds are likely to be full of people who love camping/RVing, right? Fulltime RVing is…
We were really pleasantly surprised on this trip. Blowing your expectations away when they were already high to begin with is a great feeling! If you are planning a trip to the west side of the Tetons, make sure you add these three waterfalls to your list because you won’t want to miss them! Fall…
