Camping Adventures ⛺
Camping is something I really enjoy doing and I do it as often as I can. I would MUCH rather be out in a park or campground than almost any place outside of my yard. When I can combine it with my scavenger hunts or great honky tonks, that's just a bonus! I like camping in groups with friends. Check out my Outdoor Fun playlist on YouTube. The video below will show the most recent one.
I am also a host on
Boondockers Welcome
in Central Texas and I have hosted campers from Texas and beyond. I have
room for one rig and a tow vehicle and offer 30 amp and water hookups. It's
a nice way to meet people and their rigs. I'm signed on as a guest, but I
haven't gotten to try out a site yet. So far, it's been a great experience
and if you have the capabilities, be sure to try it out. You never know who
you will meet.

My first RV was a 1989 Jayco pop-up that I got in 2010. Yes, it was older
than my son! We put some miles on those tires in the 4 years that I had it
and had some good adventures together in that camper. That was back when
he enjoyed geocaching and camping with me.
I am a part-timer and as of September 2019, I had a small Starcraft travel
trailer with a little slide. Meet
Matilda Mae. She was easily towable with my 1/2 ton Chevy so we were good to go at
most times. I started off with a Chevy Colorado, but that was another
upgrade. I lost my 4-legged camping buddy in January 2021 at the ripe age
of 15. She went camping in the popup and Matilda.
In July 2024, after the chemo and surgery, I upgraded to a 2022 Keystone
Passport 229RK SL. I had some issues with her and it took a few trips to
the dealership to get most of it straightened out. Therefore, her name has
been Miss Priss. She has a dinette, theater seats, a large slide and huge awning. She's
a couple feet longer than Matilda, but the layout is nicer and has a
deeper slide. She also has a lighter interior and lots of big windows -
AND - a larger shower!
When I get ready to retire...who knows what the next upgrade will be? I made sure my RV Carport was tall enough to accommodate a bigger
rig.
I whole-heartedly agree with the
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's slogan. "Life's Better Outside".
