Gorgeous Cassiar Highway Views ~ Healthy RV Dinner ~ S4E12
G had it out for me after I lost my wallet! But it goes to show how nice Canadians are. Actually going through the effort to contact me and then ship my wallet down South! But after using our backup card we fill up the RV and hit the road. This has to be one of my favorite driving sequences ever! Then we find a great place to boondock and cook a nice dinner. This is one of those videos people are either going to love or hate. A lot of the video is driving and cooking with music in the background. And to be honest, when driving the Alcan that is how it goes some days. Lots of driving with snacks in-between.
Snow & Our RV ~ My Wallet Is Gone ~ Alcan Vs. Cassiar Highway ~ S4E11
Waking up to snow in your RV is never a good thing…I cant think of any situation anyway. But, we make the most of it and get some photos for Christmas Cards. Then I discuss the difference between the Alcan and The Cassier.
Fresh Water Turned Off At The RV Dump Station & And The Search For It ~ S4E9
To be honest, atlas was not made for full time RV life. Especially not made for 3 people and a dog to live in it off the grid. However, other than the fresh water, we were doing ok. The holding tanks were doing well and our Propane usage was not horrible. But dishes and showering for 3 people did take its toll. Being we always down down late and come up early we usually run into the fresh water problem. Once the first freeze comes that is the end of the line for most fresh water stations. Luckily, we found a feed store that allowed us to use their water. We purchased a new leash for Kobuk as well as some treats that he loves!
Best Waffles Ever Made ~ Frozen RV Pipes ~ Arriving In Whitehorse ~ S4E8
While making breakfast G and Biz broke out into dance, I was lucky enough to snag a quick video of it. After some amazing waffles I discover the water pump was not working. Come to find out the pipes in the RV had frozen overnight. Before heading to bed around midnight the under bay was at 33 degrees. Later in the evening it got much colder. After some sunlight and hand warmers the pipes were still frozen. After getting packed up we headed towards Whitehorse, the capital of the Yukon Territory.
Exploring Alaska Salmon Fest 2016 ~ Do NOT Drive Your RV In A Wet Field! SFT 2
We LOVED salmon fest! This video is actually two days that I spliced together to make one video. BTW, what do you all think of the voice over videos. I felt like with this type of music event it was the best way to show our time here. Then, when we parked in the field the entry way was solid grass, by the time we left it was a mud bog. The spot you will see us leave JUST opened up that morning. I ran back to the rv and got everything packed and we made our daring escape!
Heading Towards California Coast ~ No Large RV’s In Jedediah Smith State Park ~s2e35
We leave one of our favorite boondocking spots ever to head towards California. We have plans to camp overnight in Jedediah Smith State Park but that does not go well!
Scandia RV Park ~ Importance Of A Tow Car ~ Exploring Bend, Oregon ~ s2e26
Being we have never really had much free time to explore we never realized how important it is to have a car for full time RV life! We boondock at a walmart and then head into the Bend to do some exploring.
G Leaves ~ Full Time RV Rookie Mistakes ~ A Real Full Time Mobile Community ~ s2e17
Update time everyone! G heads back to AZ to visit with the fam and I am left alone to explore Washington and Idaho! It seems as though Atlas is upset at G’s leaving and things go downhill fast!
Walmart RV Boondocking ~ Stressful RV Driving Situations ~ Mile 0 Of The Alaskan Highway! ~ S2E12
We awake with the need to fill up our RV gas tanks. After some maneuvering our way through town we find ourselves in a tricky situation. After we figure that out we head towards Dawson Creek, BC to see mile 0 of the Alaskan Highway!
Giant Redwoods RV Park ~ Possible Business Opportunity ~ Driving To Radio Labs Facility ~ S1E43
We make it to the Redwoods and get to an RV park set up via Passport America. We got in late and hardly fit into our spot. Someone else had come in earlier in the evening and took our spot! But, we wake up to a great view and explore the local area.
