Summer Adventures...

So we are in the midst of another life/locale change. It's been kind of rolling along for a while but it's about to begin.
We moved to Vail knowing it wasn't the end of our road and knowing we would not stay for more than 2 years. Now just over 4 years later we are starting the process of heading out.
I am hitting the road next week up to Oregon, I'll be working a couple days a week in Springfield for the next couple of months and vagabond living for the other 5 days just camping at bike parks, trail heads and snowboarding areas throughout the pnw. In the end we will be settling down in Bend Oregon and buying a place.
My son is wanting to go to high school to be with a group of people his own age and get the real life experience. He loves all the traveling and riding we have done but just like anything, when it's the norm, it's the norm....
He will be with me all summer playing while my wife stays behind in vail for an extra couple months to finish up with work.
I posted some pictures a couple weeks ago with a camper I was getting for free. It works well, a little long for my short bed truck but it rides just fine, I have spent 6 nights in it so far and it's warm and comfortable. I have also driven 700 miles around the mountains with it, seems to ride well....
I'll post pics throughout the next few months of where we are, some of you peeps are Facebook friends so you will see more. It will be more biking and hiking with probably 10 days of snowboarding mixed in.
Here's the camper as it sits now. It had some damage to the front corners that I fixed and was able to rebuild the proper mounting points. I got the right frame mounts and it sits tight now, I drove a few hundred miles with just the huge ratchet strap and it was squirrely as fuck... It's good now. I have an airbag system coming in tomorrow that I will install to help with the rear end sag....
