Lake Mead Recreation Area

Ashley Longnecker / January 11, 2018

We were in need of some rest after our time in Death Valley, so we headed to a familiar place. Lake Mead National Recreation Area. If you’ve been following us for awhile, you may remember this crazy incident!

We knew there was plenty of great places to boondock out there so we picked a less crowded area and intended to stay a full 2 weeks! With plenty of great hiking in the area, water close by, dumpsters down the road, and anything we could possibly need in the nearby cities of Henderson and Las Vegas, we had no plans to leave until we had to. Plus, we were ready to downsize (again) and simplify our setup a bit. 

Death Valley National Park & Jonathan's Birthday

Ashley Longnecker / January 02, 2018

Death Valley has been on our radar for a long time. It’s one of those places that everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime. Being one of the lowest, hottest and driest National Parks, we knew we had to go see it.

Review: Andersen Levelers

Ashley Longnecker / December 21, 2017

When we began traveling full-time in 2015, we knew we needed to invest in some leveling blocks. Everyone told us we would be using them often, and they were right. We use them nearly every time we set up, but recently we began having problems with them. Now that we are primarily boondocking in the middle of nowhere, we have found it incredibly hard to level our Airstream using these square blocks. 

Trona Pinnacles

Ashley Longnecker / December 08, 2017

If you follow us on Instagram, you may have seen some of the amazing places we have been able to visit recently. After all the truck mess in Stockton, we ended up heading out to the Trona Pinnacles! We needed time to rest, recuperate, and hunker down to get some much needed work done and Trona Pinnacles fit the bill. Secluded, quiet, crazy awesome views, and great cell signal. Yes, please!
