Mission accomplished! It only took an hour and when all was said and done I had a tooth extracted and a filling added… easy as van-cooked apple pie. I found it odd to be the one speaking a foreign language as the Oral Surgeon, Dentist, and Assistants spoke Spanish while...
Brian and Leigh (Aluminarium) have been such great RV-neighbors. Once again they invited me over for dinner (Lemon Dill Pasta Salad) where the asked me a few questions about myself. We then got into a heated game of Penny Poker where cards were in my favor. I wish I was...
I admit, I was not expecting much from a black pvc bag of water, but it has surprised me, in a good way. It did take three attempts before I figured out what I need to do to make this solar shower work. The first attempt resulted in a lukewarm...
On Thursday I crossed into Mexico to have a tooth extracted before it turned into a much larger ordeal (I’ve been there before, and it isn’t pretty). Crossing the border at Naco, AZ was simple enough. In fact, I’ve stated since that it may be easier to cross the border...
Getting cleaned up and ready to haul out I sat on my bed only to be met with minor resistance. I happened to be the power cord for my Verizon MiFi Hotspot which when stretched to it’s limit tore the cord out of the Hotspot. Sounds simple enough, but combined...
A short drive and hike from the boondocking location is an old prospector cabin ruins. Not much remains but holes in the ground and two small walls of what would have been a tiny cabin a few miles outside of Tombstone, Arizona. From Wikipedia – Brunckow’s Cabin is a historic...
These past days have been spent boondocking in the desert not far out of Tombstone. Much of my time has been spent socializing again as I have company with the Aluminarium duo and the MaliMish family, both in their luxurious airstream getup’s. I parked Big Blue a distance away to...
The past days I have been camped right outside the McCarrell Ranch. Coming here dates back to my first winter road trip with the van, before they had event built the house. I think I may have gained a few pounds from Nancy’s fantastic cooking (worth every bit of it)....
We arrived at the McCarrell Ranch where we will be spending the weekend camped nearby in the desert. Pat and Nancy, as always, have been great company filled with good advice from boondocking to baking sour-dough bread. Moose got to meet the original Moose; Kamori. As much as each would...
South West of Silver City on highway 90 is another segment of the Gila National Forest. The highway crosses the Continental Divide Trail, complete with a nice area to pull off and hike a bit or camp. While there are no established camping areas, it is easy enough to spot...
