We have reservations in Vegas for Friday, and the hotel is only $26 a night on weekdays, so we're considering just heading up to Vegas for a couple extra days. Still mulling it over

Well that sucks. Watched the video and was getting nervous about driving our Hyundai Elantra back there. Kept reading and the news just got worse. Now we have no place to stay Wednesday and Thursday night. Best start looking

We're 2 weeks into our 11 week journey, and I'm just now getting to my first legit blog post. Between working 4 hours a day, and having something planned every day of the week, writing blog posts kind of falls to the wayside. Way too many pictures to go through and too little time and energy...

We just filled up the car today and we are back to 35mpg, which includes the drive over Monarch Pass. I think the drop from our last fill up is because we had filled up with ethanol enriched gas while we were in Kansas heading into Colorado. We had the transmission fluid changed before we left...

So, we are 5 days into our adventure with our 2008 Hyundai Elantra, and it's become pretty clear that she does not like heights. The first thing we noticed was that if we have the cruise control on and we're going up hill, the car will continue to rev after switching gears unless we tap the...

I went with the WeBoost. Comes on Thursday

I do not have insurance on my photo gear, but I probably should

We leave for our 11 week adventure on Sunday, so we figured we should do a test run of what we can fit in the car. It actually wen pretty well. The only thing we need to fit in now is bedding which we are join to put in space bags, and I'm pretty confident we can squeeze it in. Loading and...

I'm really not sure how much data we'll actually use. I'm thinking that 18 gig will be enough, if we don't Netflix too much. I'm thinking that a lot of campgrounds forbid you from using their wifi for streaming anyway, so there may not be a great deal of benefit from campground wifi anyway.

Is that legal in the US? The FCC recently reduced the maximum boost allowed. The weboost is at 23db max gain and claims to be the most powerful available. The one you posted is at 53db max gain.

I can use my cell phone as a mobile hotspot and have 18gb of data through Verizon. I will be traveling in my car through Utah, Colorado, Northern Arizona and the California Coast. Will be staying at campgrounds with wifi as well as some without. Will my money be better spent buying a cell...

Are there any good locations near the location where I can charge my laptop, and do some work without having to spend a bunch of money? We'll be there the 22nd thru the 25th for sure, but we have an AirBnB booked for Sedona from the 17th thru the 21st. We'd save a bunch of money by canceling the...

What's the bathroom situation look like? We'll be coming in our car with a tent. Will there be communal bathroom facilities like a tent or something?

We do have Verizon and I can turn my phone into a mobile hotspot. As of this morning we only had 3gb of data, which I don't think would be enough, but Verizon has a new plan and I just upped it to 18gb for the same prices we were already paying! That makes things a little easier. We'll only be...
