First Trial Camping Trip at Kickapoo State Recreation Area
After years of running the highways in a big rig and logging more than two million miles across America, it finally happened — our first real trial camping trip in the RV. This wasn’t just another stop along the road. This was the beginning of something new. We rolled into Kickapoo State Recreation Area with our Entegra […]

Sunday Song and Wellness Check In
Updating our Health First, let’s go over what happened… During our two weeks time off, we were having problems with allergies, general breathing problems, etc. We got “better” then decided to take a trip which we picked up in Wisconsin. It was a nightmare to get accomplished. We gave it our best shot, but there […]

About today’s drive…
Well, this weekend BigRigTravewas your alternative to the Super Bowl. Yesterday we covered the San Rafael Swell and today we conquered the highest point on any US Interstate at over 11,000 feet. It was absolutely picture perfect day with snow on the mountains and perfect dry roads. We couldn’t have asked for anything better! Guess […]
Rough start Today
We are trying to get rolling here. Truck won’t start, dead batteries, won’t jump start even using our heavy duty personal jumper. Think there is a short somewhere since all lights, hazards and LDW systems all on the same switch bar assembly are dead. Everything else seems to work
February updates
Howdy! So, here are a few updates for you. We were given a trip this morning but it wasn’t going to work out, so we rejected it. The ONLY other trip available loads February 2nd in the evening and delivers early the next morning. That means the entire trip will have to run overnight. We […]
Monday Icy Mess
Hey!How are ya? So, just to catch you up today, we did make our delivery. We have multiple problems with this trailer that was preloaded. The plans were to head to Gary and drop this trailer off at the shop there and get a different one. Literally minutes before we were going to head that […]
What the heck happened?
Alright , this isn’t going according to plan at all. We had our Friday shop appointment canceled due to ice and blizzard conditions. No biggie, we had it rescheduled for Monday. We showed up for our 2pm appointment and they brought the truck into the shop at 5pm and promised we would be good to […]
