 Hey Y'all! I'm not sure if any of these have been shared yet in a blog, so my apologies in advanced for any repeats! Photos: Some places we've visited we used the big camera, and we haven't checked those photos out yet- specifically more from Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge, and Incline Railway. We'll start posting those soon. If you enjoy sunrise/sunset photos we've got lots more to share! I also like to take pictures of our spot in any campground we visit. Rockport, IN/Owensboro, KY- Corbin, KY/ KFC- Warriors Path, Kingsport, TN- Lebanon, TN- Athens & Decatur, AL- Near Chattanooga, TN- Spot 2 at Harrison Bay State Park. Such a large slope we had to move to not fall out of bed. Spot 7 Harrison Bay, much less sloped, but definitely not as deep.  Athens, TN- Berea, KY- Boonesborough, KY- Thanks, The Outlands

Anything New? What Are We Up To?

 Hey Y'all! First off there's a new video up on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWtP98KYBk4 So, what's new? We're in Indiana again, it's the spot where we can most easily tear the van apart since we're doing a rebuild of the interior. The plan was just tearing out the old rear seats, and rear a/c unit, and building a bed. Which would allow for more storage, and more headroom on Chris' side. ... That has now turned into a much bigger project than we initially expected, the rear a/c had a zillion hoses attached, and they all need removed, and at the engine capped off. The removal of the unit itself leaked and so now the maybe carpet is a definitely new carpet. Chris' is removing the rest of the old now, which means we have to take everything out... and that's where we're at now. So.. new bed, new carpet, more storage space, and beyond that I think a new pully is planned. Since we're working on a video for this whole process...

 Hey Y'all, We've been fortunate to have seen quite a few sights these past few months, here's our top 5!  There were so many cool things, and places coming up with just five favorites was harder than expected. Working from 5, and in order we'll start with... 5) Athens Veterans Museum - Welcome to the Alabama Veterans Museum and Archives. Located in Athens Alabama, we are proud to be a part of our military history with a large exhibit center, guided tours provided by local veterans, gift shop, meeting facilities, monthly coffee call and much more .
