Out on a small trail we came upon while exploring Labrador, NFLD.

Just spent 4 days camping at Silver Strand State Beach (Coronado, CA):




Tired pupper:



Saw this beast on the way home on the 8:

 

Picked up the camper from RV shop. It passed inspection. It needs some caulking on the roof which I told them that I could do that. Now I’m ready to go camping.

 

Our photo album of our Cabot Trail trip is posted up on our site now.

There are quite a few pics as this was roughly 2 weeks spent out on the road.

We had an amazing time visiting the Cabot Trail and areas in between.

Few samples

 

Took the day, ran a trail... 72 total rigs, but still my favorite lol.

 

Campers and the opinions on model to model are so wide ranging it would be hard to sum it all up. that said, I love these units. They have had a little trouble in newer years with some build quality, but honestly, most companies are facing the same issue. I was in love with the NOBO 16.1 and I went to the camper show to buy the 19.3 after I finally was ready to purchase. i decided to go a completely different route after the fact, for reasons that had nothing to do with their quality.

They are more expensive because they target off roaders. They are well though out with minimalistic approaches and offer a lot for 1-2 people. If I wasnt having a kid, I would have left with the 19'.

I will most likely be buying the 16' next year for renting out in my area, and for the occasional trips I dont need to be overly packed in for.

moral of my post, they are both solid units, depending on the features that matter to you.

1st trip of the year in Gettysburg , PA. So far so good. Nothing broke.

 

Same campground, (Gettysburg Battlefield Resort in PA) different weekend and different site.

 

Here's a couple photos at night from our recent camp along with a link to a basic blog I maintain on our website when I get a chance to do so.

2 nights at a waterfront site. Nice having the boat out and chicken wings turned out awesome.
Cannot post video but we have never see or heard so many loons in our life. They put on a creepy af sound show from all corners of the lake at night.

 

Them wings look great!

 

Cast iron pan fry and finish on the fire!

 

I'll get some better photos next week when we are camping....

But we picked up a 2021 Escape 19 Fiberglass trailer with solar, no decals, lift, storage box, manual awning, etc

 

Very nice!
Those are one of the few trailers I would consider buying. Full fiberglass is the only way to go imo.

 

First night with our Escape 19

 

Headed to Colorado in a few weeks to find some good trails and cooler weather!

 

Safe trip. Enjoy!

 

I am awful at taking the time for photos but here is a couple from our week of holidays in BC.

Kokanee salmon were shockingly colourful

paid someone to drive us up the 1200m to bike down a fantastic trail.

Lonely old wooden water line along a river mtb trail.

 

Camping at Gettysburg this week. Bad part is I have to work this week too. We had a visitor today.

 

A better view from the other side.

 

I need to remember to get a Lotto ticket

 

Looks like someone is looking for a free wire harness pasta to eat.

 

I used to miss my overland setup and I really do still think about that trip across the country....

But this has been so much more enjoyable... And here is the most recent setup. Still debating what to do tomorrow, but that's a morning problem.

PS... Really thankful we were able to leave ahead of that the storm.

 

Went to Assateague Island last weekend for a couple nights. It was great camping weather, and we shot over to Ocean City for the County Calling Festival.

I really like what I can see from your setup! Well done... once again!

 

Another week at Gettysburg PA. Fall is coming.

 

My next trailer:

WTF. And I thought a regular airstream was priced absurdly high.
