Wait a minute, didn’t we just rip out the dinette and build a bench!? Now we’re going to rip out the bench and put in a mini dinette set!? That’s right folks, another RV project! Early on, we learned that the original dinette set wasn’t a good fit for us. If you’re interested in our first set of major RV modifications, you can check it out here - Little Rednovation. Now that we’ve had our bench for about 8 months, we learned that it wasn’t the best solution for our needs either. The bench … [Read more...]
Why we didn’t upgrade to a bigger trailer
As mentioned in our blog about our time in Utah, we were contemplating upgrading our rig to a slightly larger version. We were already headed to Denver to see friends and catch a flight or two, but we also wanted to take a look at bigger trailers with our friends at Trailer Source.

We were looking at the new Winnebago 2106DS and (21’11’) and … [Read more...]
Boondocking through Utah
For the longest time, New Mexico has been one of our favorite states.

Eating our way through New Orleans
We finally made it to New Orleans! The last time we tried, there was a major storm cell going through and we decided to bypass New Orleans all together. Well… the weather caught up with us yet again! As soon as we rolled into New Orleans, there were tornadoes touching down, weather warnings, and even sirens at times. All is well but it was not a warm welcome. Our first day in the area was mainly a low-key day at the state park where we got setup, listened for tornado sirens and figured out … [Read more...]
Wrapping up the Northeast… a month in the writing
Well, by now you may have figured out that we have been looping the Northeast for far longer than expected. We had some scheduled work to be done on the camper up in Connecticut but the parts have been delayed time and time again so we have found ourselves revamping our plans accordingly. On the bright side, we have been able to hang with some friends AND my (Erin) mom flew out to go on some adventures with us! After New Jersey, we shot over to Leesburg, VA just outside Washington DC and … [Read more...]
