Travel, on and off-road.
Whew! We've made it! This post will cover the last full day and night of our spring break camping trip, which means that I'll back up a bit from so many updates back to back. We'll probably post a few more times just to write about some of the modifications we've made to the drop …
The morning after our night at "no name" campground we woke up pretty early to make it to Fort Macon State Park by opening so that we could make it back to the ferry and on to Ocracoke by early afternoon. Our campground was about 30 minutes away from Fort Macon and then from Fort …
The morning of the second day of our trip started with a quick drive from Carolina Beach down the road the Fort Fisher Historic Site. We took the dogs on a walk around the fort and explored the visitor's center before driving down to the end of the road, past the ferry to Southport to walk …
Back in March, during ECUs spring break (March 5 - 9), Will and I took the dogs on a week-long camping trip to visit the NC State Parks in Eastern NC. This was our very first camping trip with the drop and we were very, very excited to know that not only would be quite …

And although we've been failing to share our updates and most recent adventures, we haven't been sitting idle. We've done SO MUCH in the past year that I've (Rachel) honestly been waiting to share these updates all …
It seems like everyone who owns a truck these days is slapping on a LED light bar.  Doesn't really matter where or how, as long as it looks cool.  I've seen them anywhere from under the bumper, on the bumper, behind the grille, on the hood, above the front window, on the roof rack. Hell, it seems …
Mushroom soup?  You've got to be thinking how in the hell am I supposed to make mushroom soup on the go, in the middle of nowhere, without a blender and to top it off, it justs sounds annoying.  At first glance you'd be right.  This is a French recipe and does require a good bit of …
Gus is the first puppy I can remember having. My family rescued a mutt when I was four and we had him until he passed when I was 19, but I don't remember him as a puppy. Gus however, has been in my life since he was about two days old. I named him after …
To help clarify something that I think a lot of people are going to misconstrue and take it upon themselves to formulate an idea about me, the name of the truck. I believe every vehicle should have a name. Â Its yours, you paid for it, you worked hard to make it yours and you need …
