San Pedro Riparian National Conservation Area

I have visited the San Pedro National Conservation Area once before in 2011 during my first adventures in boondocking thanks to the McCarrell’s offering up their land to me back then. Since then I have been in the area just about every winter, but have only just decided to revisit...

Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum

I must preface this post with the truth that I left my camera back at camp, so I am using the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum Instagram pictures in place of my lack there of. On my final full day in the Tucson area I visited the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum which is...

Saguaro National Park

Even though I have already visited Saguaro National Park in early 2011 I tend to visit a National Park when camped nearby one, no matter if I already have . This week my “home” is in Gilbert Ray Campground just outside the National Park boundary. Yep, you heard right, paid camping...

Darby Wells Cemetery

Searching for some information online about Darby Wells turned up little other than blog posts from other’s who have camped here. One thing that did pop up as out of the ordinary was the Find A Grave website which mentioned a cemetery just down the road from where I am...

Kayaking Mittry Lake

Moose and I borrowed a kayak and set out for our first ever kayaking adventure. He was wary at first (I may have been too), but after he realized that we could chase the ducks on their own territory he was all for it. We set pursuit for every duck...

Mittry Lake

The decision to stay near the Yuma area for another week was made after the initial trip to Algodones. Follow up appoints were made for dental work so additional time staying local was needed – however, a move to Arizona has finally calmed the nerves aftering being in California for...

American Girl Mine Road

I’d like to say I have some manly adventures to report, but I continue to fail those vicarious followers. Since leaving our boondocking location near Plaster City, California, it has been days of work and evenings of happy-hours and socializing. Not necessarily picturesque environments to tease people into the van...

Plaster City

Following the short trip into the greater LA area, I returned to camping with the Airstream crowd who took Big Blue along with them from Borrego Springs about an hour South just of Interstate 8 not far out of El Centro, CA at an OHV area called Plaster City (because...
