Camp scenes from early this past January. Two and half months into what turned into an eight month adventure, having been from Maine to Virginia, Iowa, Wisconsin, and the Smokies, I spent a full week where these images were taken before slow-traveling through Texas to the Borderlands, where I spent seventeen weeks.

Just after arriving on Padre. You can barely see my bike around the front of the van. I had it out to scout further down the beach before choosing a place to set up.

Sunrise on the Gulf of Mexico from Padre. Beautiful view and sounds to wake up to in the rooftop tent.
Windy, salty, humid, and messes with your gear. Was so humid a couple days my awning would drip constantly though there had been no rain.

Dawn on my full set up but for chairs and table, which are usually centered out front just under awning's edge.
The steady breeze from the Gulf felt wonderful and kept the awning billowed.
Love the setup!

Just joined and thought I'd start here. This was a few weeks ago out in Nevada. Did the first half of the week by myself and realized that I really like solo camping.

Cool image!

Solo camping is the best. Other than having my adult kid with me (she's the best adventure pal ever), I'll solo camp over camping with anyone, anywhere, any day. It distills down to the essence what you do out here and it's entirely up to you to make or break your day, no matter the weather, environment, or gear you have along.
