A Deeper Look in the Mirror
After writing up our website, we read the whole thing and realized it was missing something: the flavor of who we are and how much we love what we do.
Probably a reflection of happy childhood memories, we are absolutely passionate about camping, fellow campers, and the gear we all use to make it happen. We travel almost full time and sometimes we go to spectacular places like Glacier National Park. Those places are awe inspiring wonders, but they’re not enough to make full time RVing worth it.
If we are in a campground with you, you’ll see us out walking around any day weather permits. For us, the bigger splendor is in the people enjoying themselves and the vast array of rigs and campsite setups we see. It’s exciting to see classics still serving their owners, the latest and greatest straight off the dealer lot, rigs designed for a family with half a dozen kids, coaches built for two, and even the latest tent designs. Every single campsite is a little world of wonder to us as we walk by and often stop to visit.
The reason we travel so much isn’t the spectacular sights or even the geeking out on the vast array of RVs and camping toys. It’s the people we get to meet from all over the country and sometimes, all over the world. Everyone who camps seems to have some personality traits in common, each person expressing those traits in their own unique ways reflecting their own unique experiences and values. Learning about the people we meet and how their world is put together is the thing that keeps us out here on the road so much.
The vast majority of people we meet are:
- Adventurous
- Independent
- Brave
- Flexible
- Adaptable
- Smart
- Thoughtful
- Tough
- Witty
- Friendly
- (and the list could go on)
It’s easy to see why these traits are common on the road. It takes all of that to get the most out of camping.
These traits are also why the best part for us is… you!
