Buffalo Bills grave

Lookout Mountain watches over our camp in Golden, Colorado. Just up that mountain (if you can dodge all the bicyclists along the way) is the William F Cody (aka Buffalo Bill) grave and Museum. Kerri and I agreed that when Buffalo Bill wished for his body to be buried here...

Colorado Railroad Museum

In an attempt to give Kerri some time to actually work without me distracting her, I got out to visit the Colorado Railroad Museum just 2 miles away from the RV park. These are the little things that I would not normally do, but for when I have all the...

Left handed

Way back in February while boondocking outside of Ajo, Arizona Kerri and I ate dinner at the 100 Estrella Restaurant (pretty much the only restaurant in Ajo worthy of more than a single star). There, along with our food, she ordered a “Nitro” Milk Stout from the bar which went...

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...
