The convenience of water is certainly a resource we took for granted at home. Just turn the faucet, and cold or hot water flowed instantly. Even more taken for granted, the drainage system that carried all of that water effortlessly out of the house to make it someone else’s problem. In our master shower at […]
The Challenges of a Family of Four Sleeping in an RV
Our Airstream travel trailer is pretty small, 21 feet from tongue to rear bumper, and we’re squeezing a family of four into that space. More space would have been nice, but our budget for RV and tow vehicle meant that we needed a smaller, lighter trailer that could be pulled by our 2007 Tahoe. We […]
Is Life Better in an RV?
Prior to embarking on our one-year tour of US state and national parks in a vintage Airstream travel trailer, we’d never spent a single night in an RV. Not a single one of us, not even as a kid. Needless to say really, we had (and still have) a heck of a lot to learn. […]
Modifications to the Airstream Travel Trailer
Our Airstream travel trailer is mostly original, though the previous owner made improvements such as install a new air conditioner, a new hot water heater, and replace copper water lines with PEX tubing. You can see pictures of when we bought the Airstream here. We’ve owned our 1969 21′ Globetrotter Airstream for about eight weeks now, […]
A Valuable Lesson for Adventure When Storms Roll In
With a week and 800 miles completed of our 2,000 mile shakedown trip to the Everglades before making a loop around the United States, we have endured some challenges which have reinforced a valuable lesson about succeeding on an adventure. Every adventure has unexpected and difficult challenges. Some of ours on the first leg of […]
Quitting My Job
I’ve always had a job. At sixteen, when I literally didn’t make the cut for the varsity sports teams (pine rider for life, holla!), I got an after school, office job. From that point on, I always had a job. I worked at a movie theater and clothing retailer in high school. During college, I […]
A Virus: The Uninvited Visitor at Santee State Park, SC
The day we left on our trip, I was filled with nerves and lots of emotions. I was in pretty good spirits in the car. Wilson napped! Jane behaved well, and we got to our destination easily. “We’ve got this!” I thought. The blissful overconfidence was my parenting fail. Never get cocky!!! You WILL be […]
RV Gear Checklist
Here is a rather exhaustive list of the gear that we saw fit to bring along on our RV trip across America. After less than a week on the road, I can already tell that there are some things I left at home that I should have brought, and some things I brought I should […]
Hi, My Name is Katie and I Married an Adventurer.
Me? Well, I’m not sure what I am. I love the outdoors. I can specifically look back on my summers spent hiking, mountain biking, and rafting in the North Carolina mountains and attribute most of who I think I am as a person (other than my parents) to those camp days. I want my ashes sprinkled […]
