I think these LoLoHo shirts are the only matching shirts my wife and I have... lol. Anyway, since getting our camper last year we have watched a lot of YouTube channels about RV’ing, and our favorite channel has been Long Long Honeymoon. They have lots of videos full of tips and suggestions about all things RV’ing as well as lots of travel videos. So if you are new to the RV’ing world or just looking for some fun, interesting YouTube channels to watch talking about RV’ing, give their channel a view. #loloho #longlonghoneymoon #matchingshirts #rving #rv #starcraft #21fb #clearcreekcampground #alabama #camping #glampingHad another good weekend in the camper... despite the bad weather (mostly just predicted) and the less than friendly neighbors... Clear Creek campground near Jasper Alabama has some nice sites and some of the nicest staff that we have encountered. There are even some walking and bike trails that are pretty nice, and a really nice beach area. It’s definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area! #camping #glamping #rvlife #rv #starcraft #21fb #camper #jasperalabama #clearcreekcampground #site61 #fawnloopThe skies cleared briefly on the last day of our hike (last month) to give us this great view from the top of Blood Mountain on the AT in Georgia. Storms were getting ready to roll in though, and just a couple of miles past this point was the end of our hike, so we decided to head out before the weather got bad. #appalachiantrail #at #bloodmountain #bloodmountaingeorgia #georgia #blueskiesandclouds #viewsformiles #sectionhike #backpacking #hiking #mountains #mountaintops #4458feetWould you believe that @backpackinglight (of all people) talked me into checking out a backpacking chair! I’ll admit that I haven’t been backpacking hardly at all in the past year, but between this chair (which is awesome by the way) and my Zpacks Duplex tent... I am really wanting to get back out there ASAP! And who said that it ain’t about the gear... lol (jk... to some degree). Anyway, this is the REI Flexlite Air chair. Mine comes in at 15.5 oz for the chair only, and with my DIY Kelly Green 8D stuff sack it comes in at a total of 15.7 oz... so yeah... an extra pound. But that’s what’s nice about getting all my other gear weight down... even with this chair I can still be around 20 pounds for even cold weather trips. As for the chair... it’s rated at 250 lbs and I’m a solid 210 lbs (yeah, I got heavy again) and it does wobble a bit so I’m curious to see how it will hold up to someone of my weight over time. But for now it’s pretty comfortable. For a more thorough review check out the video that BPL put out not that long ago on these chairs... #backpacking #chair #itsarealchair #ulbackpackingNot the best pitch, but given the space I had to work with and the time before it was about to rain, it’s what I ended up with. Regardless, this was the only night I have spent in the Zpacks Duplex on the trail (although I also spent 2 nights into with my wife at the ATKO19). For one person though, this thing is fantabolous! It rained much of the night, and as with any other tent, splatter did come in at the corners, but with the Duplex I can just scootch on over to the middle and not have to worry about that... well until I have to clean it up later. Anywho, the Duplex is an awesome tent... easy to set up, lightweight and spacious! The only downfall is that it is a single wall shelter, so condensation can be an issue, however due to the amount of interior space, a 5’10” guy can still easily avoid the wet walls. And as I have said before, because of the high clearance of the canopy around the Zpacks shelters plenty of air can circulate which means there is minimal condensation to begin with. Either way, while I loved my Hexamid for many years, I am happy to be in the Duplex now. Now I just need to plan more trips!! #zpacks #teamzpacks #at #appalachiantrail #justicecreek #duplex #cubenfibertent #cubenfiber #itsnotcalleddcf #backpacking #hiking #ultralightbackpacking #ulWe had a great weekend at one of our favorite campgrounds...
