    LuLu Visits Sterling, CO

    I knew Sterling, CO would be on my list from the get go. The primary reason being I have friends there. Then, when my friend offered to rewire LuLu, of course that meant I’d visit! Details of the rewiring aside, I actually spent a fair bit of time there and had a great time. It…

    Flora and Fauna

    Being the curious person I am, I’m constantly looking at the world around me. I want to know what everything is! Today, I’m going to share a little bit of the flora I’ve found while I’ve been exploring. If you enjoy this content, please comment and share! First, I’ve finally accomplished one of my Colorado…

    Travel Goals – Kentucky

    If I’m being perfectly honest, Kentucky was never what I considered a “destination state” but how wrong I was! I’ve recently made friends with a new coworker who is from Kentucky and she has made me see the error of my ways. From the massive cave systems to gorgeous scenery and really cool haunts, I’m…

  • Project LuLu – Did You Turn it On?

    As anyone who has been following along knows, LuLu is a little stubborn. She usually only acts up for me, so it was frustrating when the day to finally get her rewired came and then promptly left (without new wiring, that is). A friend has graciously offered to help me rewire LuLu. This means my…

  • LuLu Visits La Junta, Colorado

    LuLu Visits La Junta, Colorado

    La Junta is a small town in Southeastern Colorado. I think you could easily find enough to do to spend a weekend here, perhaps even longer depending on what you’re into. Named for the railroad junction in town, you can get here by car or by train, as it has very own train stop! These…

    Travel Goals – Colorado

    With my departure date quickly approaching, I decided I’m going to switch things up a little bit. Instead of immediately heading to my first destination state (New Mexico), I think I’m going to have a soft start here in my home state of Colorado. This will help me get my feet wet and also serve…

  • Travel Goals – Oregon

    Travel Goals – Oregon

    Let me preface this by saying looking up anything in Oregon looks like an absolute fairy tale. For as long as I can remember, Oregon was somewhere I wanted to go. It seems so magical. Before I was born, my parents took a vacation to the Oregon coast. I remember looking at those pictures in…

  • Travel Goals – Montana

    Travel Goals – Montana

    I had so much fun looking into where to go and what to do once I head into Big Sky Country. The scenery is gorgeous and there is no shortage of adventuring to be had. I hadn’t given much thought to Montana specifically, so it was a treat to virtually explore. Its the 4th largest…

  • Making Friends

    Making Friends

    Candidly speaking, I’ve never been good at making friends. That might surprise some of you, but its really quite true. Community is theme amongst my blogs about van life. Its something I’m very open about discussing as its very important to me. The VW crowd is definitely a community. Not only does everyone love a…

  • Travel Goals – California

    Travel Goals – California

    I’ve been to California before. Three times, actually. Not for very long and not for very far, but the San Diego area is lovely. I took a January dip in the Pacific (very cold as you’d expect, but absolutely necessary). I’ve seen whales and dolphins off the coast. Laguna beach was absolutely stunning. I’ve driven…
