About a year ago, I lost my Titanium wedding ring in my dad’s shop when I took it off during an Airstream improvement project. With traditional rings there is always the risk of de-gloving a finger around power tools or during activities like rock climbing. I’m pretty religious about taking it off during projects. We replaced…
There are a few terms that get tossed around in the RV/camping world that are probably unfamiliar to most people. While I’ve never seen an actual dictionary to define these terms, we’ve been around for awhile and we’ve seen a general consensus among the full time crowd. Many travelers prefer to stay in RV Parks,…
Herbal Essences Naked Dry Shampoo is my favorite dry shampoo, too — and I’ve tried a LOT of varieties. It’s the only one that doesn’t leave my scalp feeling super itchy, and I feel like it’s also lighter than a lot of other varieties so it doesn’t weigh my hair down. I’ll have to give the Action wipes a try. I usually use Burt’s Bees Sensitive Facial Cleansing Towelettes. They aren’t super heavy duty, but my skin is fairly sensitive and these don’t irritate me. I think this winter we’ll be doing more dry camping than I was brave enough to try last winter, so I’ll need something more heavy duty. Thanks for the tips!ReplyCancel
[…] Cleaning up after an adventure can sometimes take the experience from great to amazing! There’s nothing like a quick “shower” after a really hard ride, or being able to freshen up in the backcountry. Action Wipes has donated their “Survival Kit” to “Cleanse, Soothe, and Protect”. It’s a BPA-Free Loksak bag that contains 6 Action Wipes Singles to cleanse, a 1/2 oz Healing Honey Stick and Healing Honey Lip Goo to Soothe (dry skin, bug bites, rashes, sunburns, you name it) and a 1/2 oz Natural Sun Screen to protect your skin from harmful UV rays (blog post on Action Wipes here).

I’m a hammock guy. We added an ENO hammock to our gear collection long ago, and it comes out whenever we get the chance. We read in them, work in them, and even snuggle the kids in them. The ENO DoubleNest hammock we’ve been using have been good, but we have not been happy with…
Looking at the photos of your Atlas straps, it’s very obvious that they’ve been left in the sun for a loooong time (thread is bleached). I too am curious about the long term durability of the ultimate straps but you should know that ANY strap exposed to long term UV will eventually fail. Safe hammocking!ReplyCancel
[…] Hammocks are all the craze right now and for good reason. We use ours all the time and have found ways to rig it to the truck when two trees are not readily available. We’ve been impressed with the quality of Ultimate Hammocks, their prices, and most recently their Ultimate Hammock Straps. Definitely the lightest, smallest ones on the market right now (blog post here). […]ReplyCancel
Sam and I have been Chaco Sandal owners since a few months after we were married almost twelve years ago. I loved using them on my river trips in college, and they are fabulous for casual, everyday summer wear. Plus, Chaco tans just make you look really hard core, right? When I started hunting around…
For those of you that have seen the inside of our Airstream closet, you know we don’t have much room. Its not even the size of a normal person closet, yet we cram 5 people’s worth of clothes in it. Top a small closet off with the extreme dislike of shopping and its a wonder…
That clothing line looks adorable and so versatile, I would wear that Kyle Wrap with everything! My boyfriend had a similar (though shorter!) adventure with his parents when he was a child and he refers to learning more during that time than years of “regular school” frequently, so I could see this sort of life unfolding for me as well- happy to have found you here and on ig and fb to follow! Thanks!ReplyCancel
[…] We love our silicon wedding rings! Durable, light weight, and flexible these things are super comfortable. We’ve worn ours canoeing, mountain biking, hiking, weight lifting, swimming, rock climbing, pageant acting, and canyoneering. We also have worn them to church, social events, and during our everyday activities. In fact, Sam never takes his off anymore (blog post here). […]
