    I had a cool light blue clam shell style sunshade that I used for camping. My little dog, Sid Vicious thought I would was his doghouse. He loved it. I lived the travler lifestyle for 19 years with my soon to be ex-husband. And on my own. It was better on my own, less drama. Worked as a camp host a few times, loved it. Met some amazing people. Learned many things on that adventure. Now on a new adventure, back into a home and job. The goal is to buy a 5th wheel toy hauler and new truck, save alittle money. And do it again in style. Di seasonal camp hosting in differant area's. Beach and desert winter. Summers the mountains.

And that spot was incredible. - you really do find the best places! I've actually been looking at moving to the towns at the other end of that river that branches out of the lake and do my adventure traveling from there. And yeah, your van is your style, it doesn't matter if it's ours. Safe travels and looking forward to your videos! Kisses to sweet Joey!! 😍
