Long time readers know my disdain towards California, but here I still am – in California – 8 days after being van-bound again. You would think that I have many adventurous stories to tell of Moose and I, but I do not. In fact, blogging (or even snapping photos) has...
The shindig continues even with some additions to the crowd of RVs in the desert. I believe we were above 15 trailers, buses, and vans all camping within this quarter mile stretch of desert. Personally, I’m just along for the ride, meeting some new folks and others that I hoped...
Two and a half days of driving and I have arrived at my Southern California layover in (or just outside of) Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. This stop was not initially on my itinerary but after seeing the Malimish family was hanging out in the area I thought I would pop...
My van (not me) has been sitting in northern California since before Thanksgiving while I finished off my 2014 plans. At noon on the 1st I officially turned Big Blue to the South to make my next scheduled stop in Quartsite, Arizona. There I meet up with other van-dwellers for...

My holiday activities started in Colorado where I drove 800 miles to Las Vegas. After spending a few days there I made the 650 drive to Northern California. Again, a few days then I flew 2500 miles to Hawaii where I drove another 1000 miles touring the Big Island before...
I have been proud that ever since I started van-dwelling I had not been sick with those annual illnesses such as the common cold or flu. I have had some bad allergies and even food poisoned, but no cold or flu. I credit that I am near so few people...
Being born and raised in the Bay Area, Mount Diablo was the mountain in which all others were compared as a kid. I remember my Mother bringing us kids up to the peak when we were younger. The thought of being nearly 4,000 feet above the majority of all other...
Since I regularly publish my finances of van-life I was asked by more than a few of you to publish the finances of my Hawaii trip. As usual, I am happy to do so. I expected the trip to cost me about $1,500 when it was all said and done,...
