Thanks for your support Sorry I haven’t given a update we were overwhelmed with the two kids in the hospital and our 5 yr old being in critical condition for two of the days. We are happy to report that both kids are doing remarkable better and have been discharged from the hospital. We are...

Looking forward to hearing when a 5ton has been marked off your bucket list.

Thanks for your support. Sorry I was unable to respond more quickly but things became touch and go with my son for some thirty hours. The family of five(plus large dog) have let go of large sums of money while traveling, spending on hotel rooms, eating out three times a days, not including...

We were always worried of a tsunami also, we kept a escape map with safe areas available on our iPad at all times.

Brailen has fought asthma off and on in Denver, Co for two years. But after heading to Montana his symptoms disappeared and his life had been normal for almost 3 yrs. Alayah and I caught asthma with in a week apart and have been fighting it constant for 5yrs. As far as the exhaust pipe, we...

Bad day for Tiny House On A Steelsoldier After getting four hours of sleep I wake up to find out that my son has also been admitted to hospital in ICU in critical condition. He having the same asthma issue but worse than Alayah. So now we have two on the same floor, it's going to be a tough...

Thanks again. At this time we haven't set a end date.

While waiting for our new alternator at Cummings Northwest we were woken up (Sept,28 3am) by our 13yr old's labored breathing. We tried albuteral spray to clear her lungs so she could breathe with no apparent success. So it was time to do a emergency pack up and head to the nearest hospital. Her...

Hunting Crab For Dinner The staff at Bastendorf Park campground suggested that we go to Sunset Bay State Park Beach to get dinner. Now what they were referring to was for us to hike along the shore and get some Dungeons and Red Rock crab. Crab in Montana is hard to come by demanding a high...

Spooked into Moving While having a great experience camping Bastendorf Beach we started bumping into people telling us that overnighting this beach was dangerous. Not being from here and not quite knowing what the story was we decided to camp nearby at a county campground overlooking the very...

I agree with not being in a hurry. As far as the hand waves, we seem to get more then our share. Thanks for the comment.

Bastendorf Beach As soon as we pulled into North Bend hitting Walmart for supplies it was quickly decided to head to the beach via Cape Arago Hwy along the inlet bay to Charleston, Oregon. Charleston is a small harbor town just a mile from the Coosbay jetty inlet, the town offering several...

Thanks for the comment! I agree with you that having issues is not fun. The way we wrap our minds around our many challenges is we look at it as part of earning our right to be on the trip. Sometimes you appreciate the events your involved in if they don't come so easy. But I have to admit when...

Base Camp Leaving Siltcoos, Florence, and Dunes City we headed south with the end destination being North Bend and Coosbay, Oregon. We planned to use these sister cities as our summer base camp while we explore up and down the Oregon Coast. Every time you drive into a town in the Tiny House On...

Sunsets, Sunsets, Sunsets Living in Colorado, Wyoming, Nevada, and Montana where I have spent the last twenty five years of my life I have viewing many mountainous sunsets. After awhile the sunsets start to come and go until you don’t even stop to think about them as they pass. Oregon ocean...

Oregon Traveling throughout Oregon is a story of interesting paradoxes for us people not aquatinted with how the local Oregon population lives with their truly unique outdoor environment. Within short distances you can go from a high desert to wet lush forest breaking out into dunes that finish...

Alternator Failure Monday September 25, 2017 The day after camping at Picaflores (I will talk about this place in a future post)on the McKenzie river near the small community of Holiday, Oregon. I noticed a snapping sound coming from the Fan Clutch area, upon closer inspection I noticed my fan...

I think they are starting to open things up in the area. Maybe I'll have a chance to checkout the hot springs. Thanks for the heads up.

Sadly I haven't gotten into my kayak since. I'm near the McKenzie river outside Eugene Oregon, hoping to get my mojo back. We are broken down with alternator issues, what a great time to take a break and get in the water. Parts are a week away so I have no excuse.

After miles of beach with the ocean surf occasionally sweeping into the Michelins, we pulled up onto a dune to enjoying dinner. The truck had shown its true colors, giving us a million dollar view while we ate our supper like kings. The air was cool and crisp hinting of the show we were about to...
