 I bought my new truck and used camper in late October of 2005.  The following May, I "hit the road" full-time for 6 months.  I've done the same every year since, and now 2024 will be my 19th year of ramblin'!  My how time flies.  Not all of my nights are spent camping, but most are.  I don't make entries when I stay with my kids or friends.  Campsite fees are for one night with no discount (and no hookups, unless specified). However, being the old geezer that I am, I get 50% off at U.S. Guvmint CGs with the valuable Golden Age card, plus free entry to National Parks. One of the few ways (in addition to retirement) it pays to get older.  All the aches and pains sure aren't fun. :)

I started my travels this year with about 147K miles on my camper and 223K miles on my truck.

Back to visiting my 2 kids in the Napa area



Sure enjoyed my trip across Nevada on US50. I love those long, lonely, straight stretches between mountain ranges. Came back from Ely via US6 to California. Similar lonely stretches on that highway. Since I was between 6K and 8K elevation almost the whole trip, the daytime weather was very nice and not hot.

One of my favorite boondocking areas. Got a really good spot this time, that no one could get close to me on either side. Beautiful weather in the 70s during the day, but a bit chilly with a low of 29 at night. Was surprised more people didn't come in on Friday for the weekend.

50+ dirt sites (some tent only) on level land.  Sites generally close together.  Laid out somewhat randomly, w/o organized loops like many CGs.  Trees predomiately tall pines and aspens.  One section has very shady sites, due to a thick grove of tall pines.  Nice creek along one side, but only a few tent sites are on it.  Pit toilets, except 1 vault at front section.  $14.

6th time here.

No tables or fire rings, except 2 camper-built stone rings. Two relatively flat cleared areas among pines and aspens.  Land quickly rises to the W.  Very peaceful here with only the sounds of nature and an occasional jet. Would be utopia with a fishing stream loaded with fish. :)  Low of 30F. $0

About 15 dirt sites on level land widely apart.  Not "sites" in the usual sense, since this is more a camping "area" than a typical campground.  Most sites have a shade/wind-block structure.  Some sites overlook the reservoir. Clean vault toilets.  It seems to me the main reason to camp in this desolate place is to fish or get a freebie campground for a one night stop while traveling US50 (like moi).  $0.

2nd time here.  Very windy, which I understand is not unusual.

After the coast. I had planned on heading east to the Mount Hood area, because it has a lot of USFS campgrounds.  Then from there, down south to Sisters, OR. However, the heat outlook wasn't great for Mount Hood and absolutely lousy for Sisters. So, I'm making a 180 turn and heading down the coast, covering pretty much the same route I came up. Will revisit campgrounds I really liked and hopefully do some new ones too. At least I made it out of California this year! :)

Popular boondocking area visible from hwy.  Main area is a level, deadend dirt road with sites along the sides.  Good part time shade in most sites.  Nice meadow visible from many sites and a short walk.  Main downside is traffic noise from hwy and camping traffic (ATVs, etc) on dirt road beside sites.  Overall a good spot and the price is right at $0.

This stop wasn't planned.  Left too late to get to Bridgeport before dark, so camped here.

Secluded CG in a beautiful State Park on the coast.  50 paved sites on level land in two sections in a canyon.  Feels more like a typical USFS CG, than a State Park one.  Loads of hiking available along with a beautiful beach cove. Spectaclular scenery.  You can even hear the waves crashing at your site when the surf is big! Vault toilets.  $25.

Decided I'd better get an extra camping night in before I hit the road for more of 'em. Easy to do, since it's only a few miles from my winter home. 7th time here.

My 10th time at this great mid-sized bluegrass festival.  Try it, you'll like it.  Out in peaceful ranching land.  Weather was beautiful. Lots of good music by national, regional and local acts.  My daughter joined me for the festival, which made it even more enjoyable.
