Posted on April 23, 2019January 3, 2020by Amanda Bockelie

We loaded up and hit the open road headed for Utah. Took awhile to leave since he had to find a truck stop and check the tire pressure. The monitor he installed indicated 80psi and it is supposed to be 100. The hand held radios were not acting right so we tried to fix it. […]

New Mexico to Mississippi was flat! Texas was an even flatter flat. Don’t mess with Texas – it’s huge.

Corrales Friends

Posted on October 27, 2018April 22, 2020by Aaron Bockelie

Some of the pictures from our stay in Corralles, NM (Adjacent to Albuquerque) Yes I got the breaking bad doughnut – I couldn’t help it. Vanessa and Denver if you read this, thank you so much for letting us stay – it really helped build confidence and give us a stepping off point. Skoolie life […]

Utah to Albuquerque

Posted on October 14, 2018April 22, 2020by Aaron Bockelie

We are heading to Albuquerque for a bit as we were invited to stay with some fellow bus friends. The drive down seemed to take forever! Once we got into ABQ the weather welcomed us, but it’s a beautiful city.

Twin Falls, ID

Posted on October 10, 2018April 22, 2020by Aaron Bockelie

Sold House, Have To Go Somewhere Else

Posted on September 15, 2018April 21, 2020by Aaron Bockelie

We sold the house that was (sort of) purposely bought to finish the bus mid September. For a bit, we bummed around in front of our friends houses for a few days to get some things sorted, but eventually we found it was time to go. It’s crazy how our stuff kept following us around […]

Front Axle Spring Bushings

Posted on September 2, 2018December 4, 2019by Aaron Bockelie

Something that had been wrong on our bus since we bought it was a funny clunk when turning corners, usually at an intersection. It was coming from the front end, and after a little investigation I determined that the spring pins and bushings were completely trashed, especially the passenger side ones. There was a large […]
