Yes, I made it to Canada. There might be one or two people on this planet that don’t know this yet. I crossed the border on Friday morning, where it was me, the Canadian customs person, and a flock of birds. No guns, mace, alcohol, etc. so I was cleared through in under a minute. She wasn’t at all impressed that my trailer is Canadian 🙂 So now I am in New Brunswick, with the sign (above) to prove it. My first experience in a Provincial Park (New River Beach) was quite nice, with widely spaced sites and many, many…

I’m getting closer… one of my big goals this year is to spend time exploring completely new places and eastern Canada is the one I’ve been aiming for the last few months as I camped my way up the east coast of the US. Once this map was filled with red pins, now it’s all green, with the blue showing my current location, about 100 miles away from the Canadian border. I’m ready to go. But first… I spent the end of last week at Salisbury Beach, which was mostly full of overcast skies broken by brief bouts of brilliant…

Catching up on two weeks worth of travel, as I’m steadily making my way up the East Coast and towards Canada. Spent a few days in Pennsylvania, where Breeze got a new set of tires. It has to be good weather as they can’t put the trailer into their service bays, so they do the tire changing outside. I driveway surfed with my friends, Peg and Larry, she of the fantastic gardens and this time around, the tulips were on show. From there, it was a one-night stand in the Poconos, where Spring has so far not yet appeared but…

On the occasion of the two-year anniversary of picking up my Alto 1743 trailer, this week’s update is a look back at the last two years of being in love with my tiny home. This was me on May 2, 2016 at Safari Condo, with Denis, the guy who put up with my nerves and questions and worries during the 15 months of waiting for pickup. And honestly, everything he told me to get for the kind of camping I thought I would do? It all worked out. I love my Alto setup, and wouldn’t change any of the options…

I’m moving right along towards Canada this week, from Virginia to Maryland to Delaware. Kind of exciting, those last two states, because I’ve not camped in them before so I finally get to put some new stickers on my US map. Yay! While Virginia Beach was nice, it was windy about 90% of the time, so when it came down to crossing the Chesapeake Bay, I was pretty happy that half of the crossing is a bridge and the other half is a tunnel. Or, more accurately, two tunnels and two bridges. From there, it was off to the races….
