It’s been four months since the fire. I think we have stayed home (at our temp apartment) only two, maybe three, weekends. Sadly some of that time has been spent shopping -which I loathe anyway. But we’ve been very judicious about what we’re replacing. We had 4 skillets. Now there’s only two. 16 place setting of dishes and flatware. Only making room for six.
Our outdoor gear is where we took the biggest hit. Yes, we are buying things. But only when we need it. Moving in winter to a snowy area, you can be sure I’ll be replacing my skis and snowshoes soon as we get settled and they will be used!

In the meantime, we’re sitttng in a coffee shop in Portland OR. Because we’ve never been to Portland. Cheap train ticket, AirBnB, food from a farmers market. Adventure don’t have to be on the Orient Express budget to be enjoyable.
Once we have our gear again, adventure is just outside the door.

@Cuffs you need your own adventure/build page with more pictures of places you go, it’s fun to follow

I am hoping to head back up in a couple of weeks and do my first camper pull with my A-frame.

What do those A frames go for? Love this.

A small aliner 2018 scout I think is 10,000. Descent size around 14,000 in NC. Price I’m sure varies state to state

The Moki Dugway was a fun drive! Definitely something to experience. And yes, the stargazing from the Valley of the Gods was epic. Made it hard to go to sleep. Taken with my iPhone

Make sure you go when it's milky way season on a new moon. You will not be dissappointed! The core isn't even visable in this shot and won't be until early next year. Not sure if you caught the Andromeda galaxy looking toward the North when you were there. This shot was on a tripod with a 10-15 second exposure and a fast lens.

Wow, very nice! Yeah I could barely see the Milky Way that night. It's an excuse to return ;-)

Utah: Valley of the Gods Rd

Does sleeping in your bed count as truck camping?

Only if you put the tailgate up!

Utah has some of the darkest skies in the country. Makes for great stargazing. Here is a view of that same area up on top of the Moki Dugway. No this is not from the air.

That pic is AWESOME!!!

My wife and I have done a cruise and Vegas and a few other expensive vacations. We both agree our favorite was the week we spent camping at Mammoth Cave National Park. We had a old "popup" with no elec. or water. Great fun!

Azianwind · Nov 26, 2017

Grand Canyon, Mather campground. We did one of the longest hike in our life! South Kaibab trail to Bright Angel trail. 20miles. 10hrs

Enjoy Portland (and the PNW) while you're here. I hope you can get out of the city to explore our wilderness.

We picked this up last week. Haven’t had an opportunity to do anything with it beyond some cleaning and winterizing so far. It’s a 2004.

Sweet! What does that model weigh? How's it tow? My wife is obsessed with the Airstreams and wants one pretty bad.
