Before we left Benson, we filmed a quick video tour of the interior of Zephyr since it’s been so long since we’ve shared much about our vintage bus conversion. So, here it is: If you’d prefer a photo walk-thru or want more information on the various projects we’ve done over the years, head on over […]
Exploring Around Benson, Arizona – Tombstone, Bisbee, Kartchner Caverns
We picked Benson, Arizona as our RV winter home base for many reasons – not the least of which is how much we love SKP Saguaro Co-Op RV Park. It’s a great place to leave Zephyr behind and rejoin up for winter adventures. Benson itself offers all of the basic amenities you might need in […]
2021 Travel Route & Year in Review
It’s the end of another year, and a time to reflect back before moving on. This annual tradition of posts has become part of the fun of sharing. 2021 wraps up 15 years on the road for us together. An amazing number to ponder. We began dating in late 2006, and our entire relationship has […]
Re-Covering our Flexsteel Motorhome Captain’s Seats in the Bus – Haloleather Fail
Now that we’re back to Zephyr at our winter home base in Benson, AZ – it was time to tackle a pretty major pending project we had left from our last visit. When got Zephyr out of storage in 2019, we were disappointed to discover that the our two front Flexsteel captains chairs were peeling. […]
From New York to Arizona – A Condensed Travelogue Across Country
Lots of miles and lots of memories to catch you up on. But first, we’ve actually been back in Benson, AZ and the bus just over a month now. And before time gets away from us, I wanted to at least recap the trip getting here. Our last extensive travelogue left us just leaving New […]
Our Favorite RVing Accessories for our Travato GL Camper Van
We have now owned our 2020.5 Winnebago Travato GL almost a year, and we had a 2016 version of the model before that starting in 2019. In our years of traveling in our van for both short and extended trips (including the 3 months cross country trip we just competed), we’ve collected a bunch of […]
Boat Upgrade: Inflatable Hot Tub on a Bayliner 4788
Before we bought our boat Y-Not in 2017, we of course deeply researched the Bayliner 4788 model. And we were very intrigued when we found posts from a few owners who had added hot tubs to the flybridge successfully. We love getting in hot water – would we be able to someday add a hot […]
A Very Social Time RVing in New England
Let’s see.. where were we? Oh right, we just spent a couple days exploring the Big Apple, parked right downtown. And now it’s time to head into New England for some pre-planned meetups with family and friends. As usual, here’s the quick video recap of this segment of our summer van travels: Harvest Hosting It […]
Urban RVing in New York City – Liberty Harbor RV Park
Thus far on this van trip we have explored northern Florida and Georgia, a couple weeks along the Blue Ridge Parkway, and then re-entered civilization in Virginia to continue east. After our stop in Philadelphia, Chris was diligently trying to route us around the traffic in the New York City area, when I questioned why? We […]
Continuing the Van Trip: Shenandoah National Park, Biking the C&O Canal and Philadephia
Last we left you, we had just spent two weeks exploring the Blue Ridge Parkway. So let’s pick up where we left off, which was literally heading across the street and entering the Skyline Drive, part of Shenandoah National Park and then heading east. First, the video version: Shenandoah National Park Once you exit the […]
