Where do I begin… ugh…we have been MIA for a LONG time due to the fact that we got a NEW toy. We have been doing nothing but exploring the western side of the United States. Without further ado we are proud to introduce to you…(wait for it)…..Sally Ross! She is a Fuso 4×4 Custom Camper. Check out this…
I purchased a Salsa Mukluk this summer after a ton of deliberation on what fat tire bike I wanted and what I wanted to accomplish on it. Denver has received a ton of snow this winter, providing an awesome opportunity to finally get the bike in the snow. I wasn’t really sure what to expect…
Time for the maiden voyage of our new Phoenix Pop Up Campers Fuso Camper (PHX-FG) to Estes Park, Colorado! When we first realized that this new adventure rig was a real possibility for us, the trips and locations to travel became endless. The real difficulty with having such a great platform to hit the road…
We are a cycling family! When my wife and I first found out we were having a baby, my mind immediately starting running through ideas of how we were going to keep riding our bikes. Three years later and my little girl is now riding her own bike! That’s right, at three years old; she…
Recently we snagged up an XShot Pro Camera Extender (a selfie stick) GoPro Pole that we’ve really been enjoying. We’ve had a few different cheaper models that have performed like CHEAP accessories. This is NOT the case with the XShot Pro. The quality of the knobs, telescoping arm and handle is top notch. The extender…
SOLD We have REALLY enjoyed our Sprinter, but it’s time for a change! Check out the YouTube Video of our 2007 Dodge Sprinter
With the holiday season upon us, our life is packed full of parties and obligatory functions, keeping us close to home. Today we craved some fresh air and time with our cameras, so we head over to the Red Rocks in Morrison Colorado. We spent the day hiking, eating snacks in the van and shooting…

If you’ve followed us for any significant amount of time, you’ll notice that we don’t let stereotypical holidays drive what we do with our down time. We’ve spent Christmas in Nicaragua and last year we spent Thanksgiving in Florida on the beach. While we like to eat ourselves into a sleeping coma as much…
When our little girl was 20 months old Santa brought her a Strider bike. You know the little tiny bike that doesn’t have any pedals. Where the kid just sits on the seat and “strides” along pushing their little feet while the bikes coast down the sidewalk. All the while they are learning how to…
Have you ever been interested in a rails to trails with your family? This summer we completed the midsection of the Katy Trail in Missouri. We only had 3 days of vacation time so we chose the most scenic section and dominated it! We started with an incomplete train ride (a train derailment up the line…
If a place is amazing the first time why not visit it a second time? This is what our crazy thoughts were when we decided to venture into Nicaragua again only 8 months after our first trip. After our first trip into the country, we started following some expats from Florida who live abroad with their 5…
This September we are making another trip to the beautiful country of Nicaragua for some well-deserved relaxation and rejuvenation on the beach. While we are visiting the country, Nica Vida Surf Lodge has graciously put together a volunteer opportunity for us to help supply some local villages with water filters, improving the health and quality…
Who doesn’t like to hunt for treasure! Recently we’ve been spending a ton of time #geocaching with our toddler. It is basically a worldwide treasure hunt utilizing GPS navigation to identify hidden items. By either utilizing a handheld GPS unit or even better an app on your mobile device you can be hunting for treasure…
I have been delaying writing these few post about Nicaragua for about 5 months now. Why? I’m not sure. Maybe the reality of writing them and reflecting on the awesome trip we had, makes it final. And no one wants to see the end of an amazing trip. Our first full day in Nicaragua…
