When we first arrived at the Sonoran Desert we had no idea where we would go afterwards. That didn’t stop Kerri who found yet another long dirt road that she wanted to travel. It happened to be just across the highway from where our current dirt road would re-enter civilization....
No, I hadn’t forgotten to share my favorite camping spots of 2018 (well, maybe a little) but I am running later than usual I guess. Still, nothing better then recapping my favorites of the year and publicly flaunting them, right? So here goes… For the 2018 travel year we devoted...
We left the little campground in the middle of the Maricopa Wilderness in search of a place to call home for the work week. We were seriously crushing on the Sonoran Desert so we hoped to stay longer, but we did need Internet for that to happen. Kerri had another dirt...
Having a few days each week with no Internet requirement is a wonderful thing. It allows the both of us to venture further away from asphalt, seeking out new adventures and places to explore. I had one of those places in mind for this weekend, and with the upcoming eclipse...
Early Saturday morning we were packed up and were ready to roll out of Kofa to a new home. We were not really sure where that was going to be, to be honest, but time would eventually lead us somewhere. First, we had to run into town to resupply for...
We made it out of California, and then through the desert town of Quartszite, Arizona just in time. It was a week before the huge annual tent-show and things were going to get extremely hectic around this area soon. The usually small town – only a few blocks in size...
Immediately after the completion of the sailing lessons (and a night’s sleep) we were up and moving. We had a long day of driving ahead of us – about 300 miles – so I pestered, and pestered, and pestered Kerri until she finally got up from bed. The end result was...
The past week we have been in Santa Barbara learning to sail, in preparation of returning to our boat in a few months and doing just that. Even though I felt confident in my knowledge of the mechanics of a sailboat before the week, Kerri did not share my confidence...
The decision was made to start heading towards our sailing lessons in Santa Barbara. Before the end of the Xmas week we had already left the solitude and adventures of the Mojave and headed South towards Joshua Tree. Sure there was [yet another] government shutdown going on but we were...
Even though we had a great boondocking spot miles down a dirt road all to ourselves, Kerri continued her map reconnoitering. In the process, she found a cabin. The cabin (I will leave it un-named and un-marked) is open to the public and free to use. Our curiosity was peaked...
