For our last stop in Baja we headed to the beautiful Valle de Guadalupe from San Felipe. Highway 3 was a little rough in the desert but the bigger potholes were patched and passable. Once we got closer to Ensenada the last section of the highway was pretty twisty with cars passing you on blind […]

Baja Adventuring
Since we decided to come back to San Felipe and not continue further south, I wanted to explore more of the area around here. My cousin Gordy had shown me a copy of his “Baja Adventure Book” back in the early 90’s in Oregon on his way home from another one of his Baja adventures. […]
2018 San Felipe 250 Race
This was our 2nd San Felipe 250 race. Last year we received an off-road racing education when the Bevly-Wilson team stayed next to us at Victor’s RV park. We came back and the team returned also. Our spot was across the park this year so we didn’t get to experience The Bago rocking when they […]
Bahia San Luis Gonzaga
Last year we spent a month in San Felipe, Baja California on the Sea of Cortez in our The Bago. San Felipe is about two hours from El Centro, California and an easy drive to shrimp tacos, sand, and the sea. We called this first RVing trip into Mexico “Baja Lite”. This year we were […]
Saddle Mountain
We met up with Kirk and Anya at Saddle Mountain, a great free camping spot outside of Phoenix. This place definitely ticks all of our free camping boxes with great views, fairly easy access, hiking, and wide open spaces. Bonus – really fast AT&T internet on the Mobley and broadcast digital HD TV to enjoy some […]
Bago Blogging
We’ve been asked by Winnebago to write for their lifestyle blog – WinnebagoLife. Our first post on the Class A RV as an adventure mobile is up on the site. Yes, Mom, it’s a paid gig!
Another Borrego New Year
For the second year in a row, we rang in the New Year at Rockhouse Road in Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. Last year we met Stacey and Gary Quimby of www.pauhanatravels.com . This year we were joined by fellow Xscapers Kirk and Anya, Dan and Lisa, Kelly, Denny and Veronica, Bill and Porter, and Camille and Bryce. For New […]
Happy Holidays 2017
I’ve been a complete blog slacker so here’s one post for 11/17/17 – 12/28/17. We went back to the Thousand Trails in Palm Springs and met up Denny and Veronica for Thanksgiving. I cooked a 14-pound turkey breast in our convection oven which turned out pretty good after a minor fire and ditched effort to […]
Lake Mead
Jaime challenged me to find a new destination during our stay at Lake Powell. Maybe somewhere warm where we could paddle. Checking the map and Campendium.com I found a great free spot on Lake Mead – Stewarts Point. We really didn’t know much about the area but ended up really liking it. Our site was […]
Lake Powell
A relatively short drive from Cottonwood took us back up to Lone Rock Campground on Lake Powell. I had wanted to explore the slot canyons in the area but couldn’t find any easy boondocking so we came back to the same spot we stayed in this past spring. The views of the Lake here are […]
