After leaving our beautiful pebble beach, we drove the short distance to Point Petre Wildlife Conservation Area. There weren't really any signs to point us to the beach. We left the car at the end of a muddy dirt road and walked to where the we thought the beach may be. It was there, and unlike … Continue reading Prince Edward County – Point Petre Wildlife Conservation Area
We are officially on our way on a short road trip as far north as we can drive. Our first stop was with our friends Mihály and Fátima from Trailers and Cigarettes.

We weren't very motivated to work on the van lately, but our recent day trip seemed to do the trick and the next day we set to fix the annoying rattling sliding door. The sliding door in the Carado Banff was a thorn in our sides for a while. The cabinet is a bit in … Continue reading Carado Banff Sliding Door Improvements

First off, an Emma update. We were very concerned about her condition as she did not seem to improve, so we made an appointment with a vet in Blythe, California (the closest vet clinic to us). The animal hospital was very accommodating and the vet saw us within an hour of our call. She felt … Continue reading Sonora Sunsets Amid Vet Visits
We are back in Yuma. The temperatures are climbing and the weather forecast for the next few days will be sunny and warm. But we have a bit of a situation on our hands. Finally we go boondocking!

We left Willcox to continue our journey west in what seemed to be a futile sun quest. There was a new storm system behind us that we needed to avoid, but we had enough time to make a detour south to visit Tombstone, “the town that wouldn’t die”. Tombstone didn’t die because it lives for … Continue reading Tombstone To Yuma (Via San Diego)
