Annie Creek Sno-Park

After spending more than a week at the REV service center in Coburg, we were ready to escape. We set off with new air conditioning covers, a new windshield, and a new rear leveling valve. We ended up at Annie Creek Sno-Park (42.761733, -122.059034) near Fort Klamath and Crater Lake, Oregon. We decided to ...

Back to the West

Over the last few weeks, we toured the United States and Canada to meet some of the Healthful Pursuit readers, as part of the 2018 The Keto Diet book tour. We were let down by the REV Group Service Center in Decatur, Indiana, but thankfully the REV Group Service Center in Oregon could fit ...

Dream Home on Wheels: Explorker3 – The Planning Stage II

We finally got the chance to visit Global Expedition Vehicles (GXV) in May, a visit that was long overdue. GXV is one of the leading manufacturers of customer expedition vehicles, based in Springfield, Missouri. And, if you remember from this post about our dream home on wheels, GXV was in the running for making our ...

Dream Home on Wheels: Explorker3 – The Planning Stage I

It has been 8 months since we bid farewell to our house and left Calgary in Explorker2, our 40-foot motorcoach. We had a pretty good feeling about what we were getting ourselves into when we decided to embark on a life on the road, but as with anything -- you just never know until ...

Explorking Louisiana: Sightseeing in New Orleans & Area

During our stay in Louisiana, we decided to enjoy some sightseeing, instead of our usual quiet-spot-in-nature way of explorking. First, we rented a little house in Bywater for a few days, which was a great way to soak in the soul of New Orleans. It was nice to have reliable high-speed internet and catch ...

French Quarter RV Resort in New Orleans

We spent 6 days at the French Quarter RV Resort in New Orleans, after a few days in a VRBO rental. This RV park is within walking distance, about 10 minutes to the core of the quarter. We made the walk a couple of times. One by ourselves, and the other with Coconut. She ...

Welcome to Louisiana! Free Camping at Atchafalaya Welcome Center

We're just about to New Orleans! But couldn't quite make it after a very, very long drive from Texas. So, we decided to stop at the Atchafalaya Welcome Center (30.3414, -91.7221) between Lafayette and Baton Rouge. This welcome center is an excellent option for a one-night stop, the parking lot is easy to get ...

Magnolia Beach, Texas

We arrived at Magnolia Beach BLM really late in the evening after leaving Billy Bobs Truck Repair and Tires with our new drive-shaft. If you are thinking about checking out Magnolia Beach, be aware of the little bridge locals call "the crab bridge"; located at 28.560073, -96.537974, has a weight restriction of 10,000 lbs. ...

And then this happened…

We have been blessed with a seemingly never-ending supply of adventures and experiences. After spending $7,199.55 USD at the REV Service Centre in Alverado Texas, we were happy to get back on the road, heading toward the Gulf coast. After a quick stopover at Jacob's Well, we experienced some pretty intense vibrations when the ...

Visiting the REV Service Centre in Texas

Explorker2 is one mean machine, and we want to keep it that way, so preventative maintenance and staying on top of little things is important to us. We also drained our batteries down to 11.7 volts a few times and wanted to double our battery capacity. We were so impressed with our experience at ...
