Hiking the Challenging Sleeping Bear Dunes (Vlog 71)

Click picture to watch

Minivan camping, traveling, and hiking the great Sleeping Bear Dunes in Michigan.

I found a quiet campsite in the woods, and managed a van “bath” and washed my hair before going to the Dunes for a challenging sand hike to Lake Michigan.

Beautiful fall trees on the drive to my next adventure.

Solo Camping and Solo Hiking on my Road Trip through the Midwest.

I had a beautiful riverside campsite in Nebraska.
Alone on my hike, a man made me uncomfortable, so I did not finish exploring Smith Falls.
Found a nice Missouri River overlook, had a truckstop shower, and then spent the night in my best friend’s driveway.
Cleaned up at a rest stop, and a fellow traveler forgot their cooler in the parking lot.
Loved exploring more of Nebraska.

Traveling around Nebraska, exploring, hiking, and van camping.

I survived a brief wasp attack while hiking Scotts Bluff, avoided some loud people at Fort Niobrara overlook, and arrived late to my campsite.
But I loved every second!

Solo Car Camping and Hiking in Steamboat Springs, Colorado

Click Picture to Watch

Steamboat Springs, Colorado was on my travel and explore list.
Besides the magical drive through the mountains, I did some car camping, beautiful hikes, and watched the mountain sunsets.
I bought some new gear to make my road trips a little better… a small chair, an organizer, and a better light.

Solo Road Trip, Car Camping, Exploring, and Searching for a Place to Hike in Oklahoma

Click picture to watch

I kept searching for a place to hike in Oklahoma. I was tested… until I found a wonderful, unexpected alternative! Turns out I didn’t need a “hike,” I just needed to get out and move! And a lake full of turtles! I love these surprise detours!
Much soul searching on this drive… I’m going to find a way to take more road trips, more car camping, and much more traveling the USA!

Solo Car Camping and Exploring the South, Hiking in the Rain, and trying Possum Pie in Arkansas

Click Picture to Watch

Another wonderful road trip exploring the South. I did some car camping, hiking in the rain, and tried Possum Pie in Arkansas for the first time.
My lights stopped working, I “fell” on my hike, lots of rain, my pedometer stopped working, I didn’t sleep well…
But I wouldn’t change a thing! I love exploring this beautiful part of the USA.

Car Camping and Exploring Florida

Click Picture to Watch

I did some car camping at a state park with caves, so I did the cave tour.
I DIDN’T almost hit a bus and had no luck alligator hunting. 😄
But had some beautiful excursions while exploring Florida, and I managed to get in my minivan workout and 10,000 steps.
