Although we were volunteering at Overland Expo West 2019, we had the opportunity to attend a few of the classes offered at the event. As volunteers, we could attend classes if the room wasn’t too full as the seats are reserved for Overland Experience guests. In this episode, we talk about the classes we did …
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 …

This year’s trip out west shifted to become more about the destination than the journey as we traveled to Overland Expo West 2018. We normally like to take our time and experience sites we’ve not seen yet when we travel. It took us a speedy two days to travel from our home in Missouri …
