We’re Driving Across the US in October!

September 8, 2020 By Amanda 7 Comments

Cross Country Road TripWe can all agree that 2020 has been bizarre, to say the least. Not only have we been faced with an international pandemic, but I also lost my stepdad to cancer in March, then Wynston almost died in April.

Though I’ve endured intense trauma this year, I’ve brought a positive attitude with me along the way. I learned through experiencing so much death and sadness that life truly is short, and I don’t want to waste it.

Since his recovery, Wynston and I have had several adventures in our minivan camper conversion, and now we’re going bigger than ever! In October we head out on a cross country trip throughout the United States.

Boosting My Dogs’ Wellness With Front Of The Pack

August 28, 2020 By Amanda 18 Comments

Front Of The PackWith a senior dog and one who underwent two surgeries this year, it’s a priority of mine to keep my babies as healthy as possible. Both Wynston and Penny (and every dog, really) can benefit from a boost to their overall wellness via proper nutrition and supplements.

Front Of The Pack “The One” is a new breed of supplement that works to target your dog’s entire body. It benefits gut health, the immune system, joints and more! Both Penny and Wynston take the supplement daily, and in this blog post I will share why I love it.

Van Life Adventures: Exploring San Diego

August 19, 2020 By Amanda Leave a Comment

exploring San DiegoI chase weather. I go where it’s cold, raining, snowing…anything but sun. Living in the desert for 22 years has taken it’s toll on me and I’m over it. Therefore, I like to travel where the weather is not going to fry my soul if I walk outdoors.

But anyways, that’s what brought Wynston and I to San Diego for a van life trip – weather in the 70s. The San Diego area is about a 5.5 hour drive from our house, which is super close for us! When you’re used to driving 12+ hours to visit a beautiful spot, only having to travel less than 6 is awfully appealing.

I decided to book a stay at the San Diego Metro KOA. If you aren’t familiar with KOAs (I definitely wasn’t), they are family-oriented campgrounds with lots of activities and amenities.

I’m attracted to KOAs because they give you the ability to camp with the amenities of a hotel such as showers, bathrooms, electric hookups, activities for the family and often a pool and cafe. At most KOA campgrounds, you can camp in a cabin, tent or RV. Some even have tiny homes and yurts. Whatever your style is, the KOA probably offers it.

I hadn’t been to San Diego since I was a teenager, so I was especially excited to visit. I wasn’t really sure what to expect of a campground in the middle of an ocean “city,” but I gave it a whirl, and it was worth it.

Upcoming Changes & Improvements to Our Minivan Camper Conversion

July 25, 2020 By Amanda 5 Comments

minivan camper conversionIn case you missed it, I recently purchased a used 2011 Dodge Grand Caravan to convert into a camper. It’s been a passion project that I researched for about two years.

Wynston and I just took our first big trip in The Wynner. We journeyed to Idaho, where we camped with friends on Cascade Lake in Donnelly. After experiencing a week in our van, I will say that it’s already incredibly cozy and the setup is awesome! I really don’t have any complaints, but there are some small changes I’d like to work on now.

This blog post will outline the changes and improvements I am going to make to our minivan camper conversion now that I had a chance to live in it.
