We love attending Overland Expo because we have made some wonderful friends. Each time we go, we enjoy seeing old friends and meeting new ones. This episode is all about who we hung out with at Overland Expo West 2019. We only scraped the surface of talking about all the wonderful people we met up …
Our first stop when we arrived in the Flagstaff, Arizona area was Marshall Lake. We were anxious to explore the forest roads and have a day or so to relax and be secluded before the big event. Then the day arrived that we packed up and loaded up on fuel and groceries in Flagstaff and …
Another exciting episode! Our last episode left off at Angel Peak, New Mexico. It was time to cross into Utah. Our first stop was Bluff, Utah. Robert had heard about the little town and wanted to stop. We were impressed with their little downtown. For such a tiny town, it has a lot to offer. …
After we hiked the highest point in Oklahoma, Black Mesa, we headed toward New Mexico. We headed toward Clayton NM. During our trip, the Jeep’s engine made a weird “hick-up” so Robert checked to see if any codes were thrown. Sure enough, there was, so when we were in Clayton, we were on a hunt …
We left for our month long overland trip at a ridiculously early hour. Our plan was to barrel through and have a very long travel session until we got to Soccoro, New Mexico. We wanted to stop at the Very Large Array. Things didn’t go as planned. When we arrived at the Great Salt Plains …
It’s that time of year again. We are ready for our month long overland trip to the southwest. We volunteer at Overland Expo West. We don’t like to make a quick trip of it. Instead of going out there and coming right back home, we make a month long trip out of it. Before we …
What the heck? Another Hamfest? Indeed, it was. This time we were off to Kansas City to attend Hambash, hosted by the Ararat Shrine Amateur Radio Club. We arrived to a packed parking lot at opening time. We fought our way through the crowded isles. I actually found something to buy before Robert! Then, when …
For this week’s podcast, you’ll hear a lot of background noise. When we recorded, it was windy, rainy and there was a train nearby. We were camped in Claremore, Oklahoma’ city campground next to the Expo Center. Not a bad campground at all for being right in the middle of town. I enjoyed a nice …
We had been looking forward to this trip since we found out about this event in December. We returned to Woolaroc near Bartlesville, Oklahoma to enjoy their spring mountain man traders encampment. When we first arrived we saw Moe Cresswell. Robert met Moe for the first time at the Pomme de Terre Rendezvous last year. …
Beautiful weather had us anxious to get us out and about. We tootled around Fort Scott, KS for a bit. We wanted to see something new, so we made our way to Crawford State Park near Farlington, KS. We enjoyed the Saturday drive to the park and decided to have a little picnic. The park …
