Hi all. Forgot to say ' Hey' officially.
I think joined long ago before ' apps' but forgot about it, lost my info, had more kids.... Started Overlanding in 2014 (was called 'camping in my car), with a 1999 Honda Accord, then a 2005 Toyota Camry, finally got serious with a 1993 Jeep Wrangler. Trying to make it a major lifestyle thing of mine, especially Desert travel. Hope to meet some of you on the trail !

Welcome! Quite the evolution of camping in the car -> overlanding. I did similar starting with an 80s Toyota Tercel SR5 wagon. Continue to have fun!
