  • We finally tackle the rest of our DIY decal project, but of course, it’s taking much longer than we thought it would! Plus, our truck won’t start, adding yet another expense we weren’t prepared for. But the most shocking discovery of all appeared when we opened Trinity’s DNA test results. Tune in to see the surprising ancestry of our rescue pup!

    Hey there! We're Joe + Kalyn!
    As online entrepreneurs, we thought, "why not work from home... on the road"? So in 2019, we bought and renovated a 2005 Jayco Designer Fifth Wheel, which took us to every state in the lower 48. But the economy hit our business especially hard after the 'vid, spurring us to pivot in new directions and try different strategies, including various RV work camping jobs!

      We had at least 2 others roam through our area while we were there. It's been hard because you can't make a difference in every life - but you can make a difference in at least one.
      Trinity has been an incredible blessing to our family. So many smiles from her every day - including today when I excitedly pointed out an eagle to Kalyn and Trin got excited doing some low "huffing" with eyes peeled outside knowing that she should be excited about something...but not sure what. She just wanted to be part of the fun 😁 -J

    When Trinity first showed up all those months ago I thought she looked like a dog who had fairly recently had pups. With her DNA results it makes sense that somebody got her for breeding but for whatever reason didn't want her anymore. She knew what she was doing when she chose you.

    Catahoulas were bred to herd cattle. So the fact that she's purebred makes sense, and the fact that you guys found her in Texas makes even more sense. They're great herders.

    I have watched a lot of RV living videos over the years and I have to say, I enjoy yours the most. You guys seem to keep it real where positivity is combined with reality. I like how you show variety in each video, not just one activity but rather, each video shows things from everyday chores, projects, information, and the area and activities of where you are staying. Also, it says a lot when you can laugh at yourselves. Thank you for sharing your journey with us.

      Laughing at ourselves comes pretty naturally - I think it's because we both come from families where humor was every day life AND because we are both keenly aware that we aren't close to perfect and never will be. -J

    Hi guys, my wife Leanne and I just found your channel and love it. Your down to earth nature and your honesty has sucked us in good n proper. We’re also dog lovers and got our guesses in about Trinity just before the reveal. We had agreed on mostly Labor with some Rottweiler to explain the colour. We’ve never heard of the breed that she actually is. We are so glad that she has a real home with genuine love, she deserves it. We have a class B rv and enjoy getting out in our huge beautiful country and, like America, Australia has a lot to see.

    Trinity is such a cute dog. You two are so lucky to have found her. What a perfect addition to your family. Having her break out of the screen door to be with you, just shows how much she has bonded with you and can’t bear to be a part from you.

    Bet no one guessed that! I'm sure the mechanic told you it was the bending spring on your starter. When you turn the key on it pushes your starter gear forward an inch to engage the flywheel gear attached to the crank on your engine. The whirl you hear is the starter gear just spinning freely because the spring is broke. Beautiful drone shots! Great episode!

    We drove through Valley of the Gods from the other direction and if you head North at the West exit (the way you entered) you can drive up the Moki Dugway.

One small observation when you were leaving Gooseneck State Park (I might be mistaken) as you backed out of the parking spot it seems like you went into drive while still rolling backwards. I cringe when I see that because it’s bad for the transmission eventually. My wife did that to my car yesterday and I’m thinking of gently letting her know. And lastly my sister and brother in law stopped at Gooseneck and are staying at Devil Dog near Monument Valley
