Spring Reset: Bus Edition

Image
Spring has a funny way of calling you out. One warm afternoon, a little sunshine through the windshield, and suddenly you’re looking around like… how did it get like this? 😅 When your whole life lives inside something the size of Wildebeest, a “spring reset” isn’t just a casual weekend project—it’s a full-on event. 🌼 The Great Tiny-Space Cleanout Winter has a way of sneaking in extra stuff . Layers, blankets, random “I might need this” items… and somehow, everything ends up in that one cabinet that becomes the danger zone. So the first step? Pull. It. All. Out. And I mean everything. Cabinets, drawers, bins, that weird little corner you pretend isn’t there. For a brief moment, your entire home will look like it exploded—and yes, you will question your life choices halfway through. But here’s the magic: once it’s all out in the open, you can actually see what you own. No more guessing, no more duplicates hiding in the shadows. Just the reality of your space laid out in front of you...

Spring Skies

  Spring skies... really do hit different when you’re living life on the move.  There’s something about this time of year—the air still carrying a bit of winter’s edge, but the light stretching longer each evening—that makes both sunrise and sunset feel a little more intentional. Like the world is quietly showing off just for a moment before getting back to business. For us at Outland Adventures , golden hour isn’t just “nice lighting for photos.” It’s pause time. It’s coffee-on-the-steps-of-the-Wildebeest kind of mornings. It’s “let’s sit here a few extra minutes and not rush anywhere yet” evenings. And after enough miles, you start learning that the best views aren’t always the famous ones—they’re the ones you just happen to be parked in front of when the sky decides to put on a show. One of our favorite sunrise setups is anything wide open. Think old backroads, field edges, or those quiet pull-offs where the horizon feels endless. There’s a certain calm in watching the l...

Spring Campsite Essentials

  Spring Campsite Essentials ⛺🌿 Tuesday, April 9 Spring camping is a little chaotic—and that’s exactly why we love it. One minute you’re soaking up sunshine in a t-shirt, and the next you’re digging out hoodies, blankets, and wondering if that cloud rolling in is “just a sprinkle” or a full-on downpour. Spring doesn’t play by the rules, especially when you’re living the RV life. But with the right setup, it can be one of the coziest, most rewarding seasons to camp. Here’s what we always keep on hand to make those unpredictable spring nights feel less like survival mode and more like a vibe. 🌙 Cozy Comes First When the sun drops, so does the temperature—fast. Even after a warm day, nights can get downright cold. We swear by: Extra blankets (the fluffier, the better) Warm hoodies and thick socks A heated blanket or electric throw (if you’ve got power) Hot water bottles for a low-tech, no-power option There’s nothing better than bundling up, listening to the quiet hum of the campgro...

Spring Kickoff: RV Life Prep

Spring Kickoff: RV Life Prep Spring is finally peeking around the corner, and that means one thing: it’s time to dust off the rig and get ready for some early-season adventures! After a long winter, your RV probably needs a little TLC before hitting the open road, and we’ve got you covered with a few essential prep tips. 1. Give Your Rig a Good Once-Over 🧽 Winter can be rough on any RV. Start with a thorough exterior wash to remove dirt, road salt, and grime. Check the roof and seams for cracks or leaks—spring showers love to find weak spots. Don’t forget to inspect tires for dry rot or low pressure, and make sure your battery is holding a solid charge. 2. Plumbing & Water Systems 💧 Winterizing protects your pipes from freezing, but now it’s time to bring them back to life. Flush the system, sanitize the freshwater tank , and check all faucets, valves, and hoses for leaks. If your RV sat for months, water lines might need a little extra attention before your first adventure. ...
