I got a boondocking membership!! Connected to Harvest Hosts but for smaller stays without an obligation to purchase anything from the business you are visiting. You have to be self contained.
I booked two nights in Virginia City in an rv park and it is pricey. We don't need much for our travel days. Literally just a safe space to park and sleep. So this is a fun option. It was $67 (96cdn) to join for the first year. I only have to book one site to make it worthwhile.
Eric and I sat this morning and set up our account and started figuring out how it all works. We've requested a stay in Sisters for our first night and one night in Reno for when we leave Virginia City. Approval pending. So fun. Fingers crossed this works for us. Update, 1st approval is in.
I forgot to see what is available in Canada. Off to go check that out now. Update, there are lots available in Canada too. Even a few on the island that look like interesting places to visit.
In other news. Our solar panels arrived. Eric has them installed already. Two 600w flexible panels that came with a nice little control panel. The panel has two usb charge spots. So he installed it by our bed and now we can charge both of our phones during the night. Our bed set up is almost as fancy as the kids bunks now. I still need a light switch I can reach from bed. It's getting there.
Eric is having a heck of a time getting the water system cleaned out in the new trailer. There are smells. He's working on it. We might have to consider new tanks. We'll be taking big water jugs with us for drinking and cooking.
It's starting to feel rushed here. Getting ready to leave is always exhausting. There are so many details.
