I stopped in Raton, New Mexico to get some fuel and decide where to rest for the night. Not much around these parts so I took the easy out and booked a campsite at the Raton KOA campground. Not very busy even on a Saturday night because it’s remote and not a popular destination which … Read more
This part of the trip is the consequences of my seat-of-the-pants style travel. Time to pay the piper. In this area of the world there aren’t a ton of options for camping other than RV parks and I’m not keen on bailing out to a hotel every night when I basically have a tent on … Read more

Not many photos to share other than these fantastic Barkräm Pankaka I ate for breakfast at the Sunset Resort. What’s a Barkräm Pankaka? Icelandic pancakes that are delicious. … Read more
