Protecting the Egg from Theft

Seems like everyday now I see notice of another stolen trailer on Facebook.  Given the high re-sale value of the Egg category and the current super popularity of campers, our Eggs are all more appealing to thieves. What’s to be done??  Well, as one who has had more than her share of home break-ins, car […]

Sam A Baker State Park

Those who read the last post will know that this trip to Patterson MO and Sam A Baker State Park was taken as a short healing journey to get away and to let the ancient igneous Saint Francois Mountains, that rise over the Ozark Plateau, do their magic. We live in Missouri and over the last […]

Why I blog

It has been too long.  I can’t tell you how much your inquiries on my silence have meant to me.  It really touched my heart.  Sometimes, writing a blog can feel like a project in solitude, but you have shown me you are out there and you enjoy the efforts. Thank you. Briefly, I will […]

More Kitchen Helpers–Drying Rack

Sorting through what works verses what works better (and always editing for storage and weight) we have gone through two different iterations on dish drying aparatus. The first was a roll out rack that fully expanded to cover the sink.  This worked great for dishes washed outside and brought in to air dry overnight and […]

More Kitchen Helpers–Ice trays

One of these days, I’m going to get around to doing a full inventory of what our essential trip gear is.  Until then, I’ll share things, little by little, that help make our camping fun. Today, lets talk ice and storage.  My favorite ice trays for the Casita are small silicone squares.   They fit the […]

Banner Trips™

While waiting on big projects to dry in my studio today,  I am painting up some of our Banner Trips™ on little fabric flags that will soon decorate our Casita. What a joy it is to recreate moments of happiness along our journey. I encourage you to create something special for your Egg, too.  Any […]

Securing the Electric for Towing

You’ve seen me wax poetic about these little flexi-twists before in my Sticks and Lights post (https://zenandtheartoflittlehousetravelling.com/2016/05/25/sticks-and-lights/)  and Perfecting the Perfect Camp Chair post (https://zenandtheartoflittlehousetravelling.com/2016/06/07/perfecting-the-camp-chair/).    Basically, we find these super twist ties incredibly useful.  They come in many sizes and colors. Well, we were tired one night and pulled a freshman mistake while unhitching […]

Waterproof Camera Bag

A quick product testimonial here on a waterproof camera bag. We went to our favorite lake this past weekend and played with our dogs in the water.  I wanted to bring a camera but none of ours are waterproof.  My Hub suggested we use my sister’s old IPhone –since we bring it for audiobooks anyway.
