The Shakedown Cruise
This week we finally launched for a “shakedown cruise”. A simple one-week trip to the Hoh rain forest to see what living out of the bus would be like, to be away from our sticks and bricks home and resources, and spot any major problems we might come across. It’s been a learning event for sure… Just on the outbound leg, we had a few minor catastrophes that could have

Sometimes Things Just Don’t Go Smooth…
A lot of people like to only write about the good stuff, the victories, the happy accidents. Today, I’m going to tell you about some of the less pretty parts of our adventure to date.

Later I’ll circle back and talk about

Up Up and Away! New Experience for a Life Long Memory!
A couple of days ago we had an amazing experience, or I should say The Boy did. Earning his wings with the Young Eagles program! Have you heard about the Experimental Aircraft Association? Neither had I until Mom found out about their Young Eagles program. In a nutshell, the EAA hosts regular, completely free, 1st flights for children from ages 8 -17. The day begins with a brief ground school
