With these three things in mind I set off and purchased some Super Strut (Strut … Continue reading DIY Roof Rack →

Truck Bed Drawers

I've always been a fan of drawer systems. They help keep all your stuff organized whether it be gear for hiking, camping, tools for work, etc. Not only all of that but you can keep the top clean and pop a mattress in there and you have a pretty comfy situation there!     I … Continue reading Truck Bed Drawers →

Minneopa and Flandrau State Park – September 2019

2018

EAST COAST TRIP 2018

We started planning this trip a year ago when Katie's cousin from Boston visited Minnesota for a wedding in the family. We didn't think too much about it at the time but the more research we did on Boston and New England we started to get excited and starting booking things! We decided we would … Continue reading EAST COAST TRIP 2018 →
