Taking Molly Home.
May 30, 2018 By Caroline Diericx

Thursday, March 15 & Friday March 16, 2018.   As we were a tad pressed for time to get back home (one of us had to be at work the next Monday) we didn’t do any sightseeing on the way south. The Thursday night we stayed in an all-year campground en route. It was freezing […]

The Sticker Ceremony.
April 12, 2018 By Caroline Diericx

Thursday, March 15, 2018.   After all was checked and re-checked, Lance and Michele gathered round everyone who works at EarthCruiser. Up till then, Molly didn’t yet have her EarthCruiser sticker on the front of the cab. The importance of the shake-down trip was not only to confirm that everything was in working order, or […]

The Shake-Down Trip
April 5, 2018 By Caroline Diericx

Tuesday, March 13th, 2018. After marveling at our new baby and getting positive reactions to the wrap, it was time to get to know her for real. We spent about 2 hours with Anthony going over first the outside workings, and, second the inside workings. That included everything from how the 3 different types of […]

Bodega Bay – March 30 – April 1, 2018.
April 4, 2018 By Caroline Diericx

For this weekend getaway I’d managed to find a last minute spot in the ‘Porto Bodega Marina and RV Park. Since we left on Friday after work we wanted to have a guaranteed spot to stay as opposed to having to drive around in the dark to find one. There aren’t that many good sport […]

A quick trip up the I5 to climb Mt Shasta with Darrin and Lisa. The weather was not kind to us and we did not even attempt the summit. Instead we did a little skills training. Great weekend nonetheless.

Thanksgiving 2012 In Death Valley.
November 29, 2012 By Caroline Diericx

Some months ago we decided to spend this year’s Thanksgiving long weekend in Death Valley, for 2 reasons: we love that desert and it would be a good test for our new camping set-up. For some months Stephen had been working on installing and fine tuning everything in and on the car. The roof top […]

Death Valley
June 10, 2011 By Caroline Diericx

On Friday, May 27, we set off from Emeryville around 3:45pm to start our Memorial Day weekend trip to Death Valley.We’d only decide this just over a week before and were lucky to still find accommodation in Death Valley Nat’l Park. Or maybe luck had nothing to do with it and not too many people […]
