Adjusting HWH Leveling Jacks

During our first few months living in Rover we realized that our auto-leveling jacks weren’t quite working as expected. Very few campsites we’ve been to (if any) are perfectly level, so the “auto level” function is supposed to extend each of the four corner jacks an appropriate amount, lifting Rover’s left, right, front, or back...

Holed up, hermited homebodies

above: Fern Canyon Crescent City, CA, our final stop in CA! From Redcrest, we headed north to Crescent City, but this time we made a side trip along our route. Usually we’ll find a destination and use Red to drive to various spots nearby; however, Mike really wanted to check out Fern Canyon, where parts of Jurassic...

Trees, trees, trees

Our next stop was another two hours north in California, this time in the tiny town of Redcrest. The town (and our campground) lies at the northern end of the Humboldt Redwoods State Park and the Avenue of the Giants. The Avenue is the old 101 highway which is now a scenic route that winds...

Under the Redwoods in Santa Cruz

The spaces were tiny with barely enough room for Max’s ramp, the resort felt like a large parking lot (all paved), and the areas where...

Dog-friendly Carmel

After our fun (and not so fun) stay in Pinnacles National Park, we headed to our next stop near San Juan Bautista, a little town off Rt. 101 on our way north to San Francisco. We wanted to get the last few (minor) items fixed on Rover before his one-year warranty was up and San Juan Bautista was...

Then the not-so-fun part

…continued from previous post After watching Opie trying to ingest as much greenery as he could find, I watched him throw it all back up. Opie enjoys eating small amounts of long-bladed grass and it will pass through his system without any issues. I’ve also seen him frantically eat grass one or twice and throw up...
