It rained. It rained a lot. Forecast said it was going to rain until about noon. We got up, I delayed my walk until better weather and we headed into town to provision. Yesterday, just as I was completing my walk, a young mother approached pushing a double side by side stroller. One of those…
Good morning says Amy! Time to get up and get moving. Mission: complete the #10 trail hike. But first a stop at the comfort station due to the aforementioned holding tank status being opposite the desired states. In my shower review of this park I failed to mention that there is an office for park…
Not too long ago offspring #2 and I were at Costco. Our list included the big old bucket of M&M peanuts as there really is no better van life snack. Except for the part that it is amazingly easy to eat through 1.3 kg of M&Ms quickly whilst only grabbing 3 at a time. I…
Howdy good people. So far we are 2/2 in free parking lot camping. Last night was lovely and quiet despite there being about 20 camping units parked with us. We were fairly well spread out so that probably helped. The wind died down eventually. The furnace kept us at a solid 14C (our set point)…

The secondary goal, which was highly desired, was to see some whales while we paddled. Did we achieve our goals? Read on. I was invited to join this trip as the…
Well, hello there! It’s been some time since we last spoke. Way back in England/Scotland, if I remember correctly. What’s new, you ask. Well, stuff. Recently Mrs Milddogs and I sold our cottage. For real! Yes, we loved the cottage. It’s not a money thing and no I have not needed to start my OnlyFans…

Location: Home Alas, after an acceptable night sleep it was time for final packing, an errand or two and then off to Heathrow via the underground. The errand was a quick trip to Royal Mail to convert our remaining Scottish Pounds Stirling to English Pounds Stirling. Fun fact, the internet says this is a thing…
