Airstream Upgrades

Over the past couple of months, we upgraded a few items. These are detailed on our equipment pages:

We changed our dinette table to a smaller oak table that allows for seating along the back.

New Table

We doubled our battery capacity and added 600 watts of solar on the roof. Our inverter is now 3000 watts so we are ready to go off grid for weeks at a time.

Ride1Up eBikes.

We added these 2 bikes so we can easily get around camp grounds and cities where we visit.

Back on the Road

Yesterday, we closed on our house in New Richmond; the new owners started moving in. Pam and I are homeless and have hit the road again. Right now, we are just down the road at Willow River State Park for a few days of rest. We plan to start heading south early next week.

Our next major stop is South Padre Texas. We check back into the same lot we had back in February at Long Island Village Resort. We need to be there by December 1st. We will then move over to South Padre Island’s Ilsa Blanca Park for the month of February.

We will then move on to “On The Beach RV Park” in Port Aransus Texas, close to Corpus Christi on the Gulf of Mexico.

No plans after that. We will see where the weather takes us.

Kelly Retires

On Thursday, October 28th, Kelly fully retired from Doboy / Bosch / Syntegon. It was a great day filled with stories and good times. My friends at Doboy put together this great video from over the years.

Now, the adventure begins again. Starting tomorrow. We close on our house and hit the road. Headed to South Padre Texas with a few stops along the way. Stay tuned.

Arches National Park

Wow, Wow, Wow. What a great park. It has a very nice 20 mile drive / tour. Great hiking. With Brennan and Kayla, we hiked the Devils Garden and took the Primitive Loop; challenging 2.1 mile hike. We saw all 7 arches along the trail. The next night, we went back at sunset. Kelly hiked to see the world famous “Delicate Arch” at sunset. A 1-1/2 mile hike literally uphill all the way. He completed the hike in 24 minutes, just in time to see the arch in full sunlight (notice the sun is at the very bottom of the arch. It was gone in minutes.
