  • In the last month, Cody had his MTB Frame crack, we had a wreak in our Hummer H3, crashed our drone, Cody got bit by a tarantula, and now our HOME WAS STOLEN! We hope this is the end of our bad luck. We share with you all the steps we have gone through in real time as we handle the situation of our trailer being stolen.

    My dad had a problem with people stealing his trailers from his yard, and always used a tongue lock. He started using a chain in the holes on the tire rim and wrapped it around the axle. He found a trailer pulled down the drive twice with skid marks but hasn’t lost a trailer since.

      I put an Abus Granit lock and a hardened shackle chain (motorcycle chain) on the wheel and feel a lot better about leaving my off road trailer at camp. Also cut off the safety chains at the hitch and added a threaded quick link to remove the chains at camp. Also added a security lug nut on each wheel. As they say, nothing is fully theft proof but the harder it is to move it, the less likely it is to be messed with.

    My house burned to the ground BUT, my outdoor rotisserie grill that was given to me as a gift, survived. I pushed the grill next to the retaining wall of the house to pick up when I brought my truck. Came back with truck and some a**hole had stolen the last d@mn thing I had. That happened in 2004 and still makes my heart hurt that there's someone so callous as to steal the last thing a person owned still out there.

    Things you might want to think about for your next trailer/vehicle:
    GPS trackers/RFID tags
    Wheel locks (aka boots - often used for parking violations in major cities)
    Make sure you have the trailer's frame serial number(s)
    Running lists of everything you own (that's got brands, serial numbers, important data, pictures, etc.) backed up in at least 2 locations (online in your email is a good place for one).
    And good insurance valued for more than what your stuff is "worth" because it's usually worth more to you than the insurance company & buying a new one will almost always cost more than when you originally purchased said item.
    Best of luck of retrieving your trailer & stuff!!!

    I would have broken down sobbing when the flat tire happened. It would have been the icing on the cake. This is so horrible and violating.There are so many bad people now that want to steal,nothing is sacred anymore. Dealing with insurance, paperwork,phone calls,trying to find another good camper with the little money the insurance company gives,going out to buy the things needed like your Dutch oven is pain staking on the stress level.This is so disheartening to see happen to good people like yourselves. Not to mention this is your home and not just a weekend get away trailer. Your right,someone is concealing this trailer and will probably try to sell it in the spring.

    Some people suck. It’s not that you were just camping and could go home. They took your home. Most likely they used your safety chains to tow it away. If you get it back or get a new trailer make your safety chains removable. Make a pigtail for lights that you can remove as well. Lock the trailer tires. Anything that makes it harder. Best of luck on the new trailer your considering.

    Moving forward is a good thing if you have the means and the mindset.
    I had several thousand dollars worth of tools stolen from a storage.
    I managed to recover some things they dropped in the neighboring field in the dark.
    It was hard to just mentally reset and not obsess over the issue.
    I can’t explain how I managed that, but is was a weight lifted off me when it happened.
    I hope you find your peace.

    As I mentioned before, as a 71 year old, my experience tells me if thieves want it they will get it if given enough time and opportunity. So campers need to consider where and with whom your are with and who is around you. If stomach is nervous, leave. All we can do is think about how to slow thieves down and take opportunity away. Yes, the best tongue lock is important. Securing or removing safety chains, second. Third, a good wheel lock or two, including chaining wheels to axle and locks on wheel lugs. Those cheap U locks on Amazon are a joke. About 30 seconds or so. And the RV typical door locks are easily jammed open because the handle lock can be simply jerked hard and broken and the door frame spread open. So, insure all and be aware. Keep your essentials with you. And know if you have stuff, others, a small percentage, will seek ways to steal it. It's wonderful to camp, and I do, but be aware and prepared, financially and otherwise. Don't let thieves still your joy of being outdoors, but don't be oblivious to the reality of the everyday world. Best wishes for a better tomorrow, Dome Life.

    This is just so sad. I’ve never been scared to leave our stuff out while camping! It’s scary that now you have to be careful where you leave everything. I’d recommend getting a little Amazon tile tracker and stick it somewhere hidden inside your next trailer in case this happens again. Maybe get 2 and put them around just so you could track it! That way it just looks like a sticker not a regular gps tracker if they’re looking for one! I wish y’all the best of getting things sorted out and new things bought. I know that’s the hardest part after theft is rebuying everything you lost. Your attitudes are amazing through it all is amazing! Wishing you both the best ❤️❤️

      Wrap a security cables through the wheel and to the frame if you can when your gone. Attach another cable to a tree or something hard to move. If they try and steal it they will not find those until they try to pull away and then they will most likely panic and flee empty handed. If they keep going with your trailer they will leave a trail to follow with the immobile tires leaving marks in the road.

You may not get to witness the come-uppance these people reap but it will happen in Gods time. Take care and can’t wait to hear from y’all soon as you can on here.🥰🌸🥰🌸🥰🌸🥰🌸

    I watched a more recent video of yours for 1st time yesterday. Terrible that you all were violated like this, but with everything you went through its amazing just how you all processed everything. Thanks for walking this situation out and being an example of grace.

    I love your attitude. Being on a church council I hear lots of problems that people have. Some of their own doing others are the result of others. I'm sure that you will use this as a blessing and we need to pray for those folks that did this. I'm sure there are some things about the trailer that you would have changed or done a different way. This is your opportunity to improve and thank
    God that it is only material things. When I was a young man I had a boss say to me once "See that car salvage yard over there? At one time everyone of those cars made someone happy for a relatively short period of time in their lives when they were shiny new. Having fun is for the moment. Being happy and content and finding faith in Jesus Christ is a way of life." Continue to enjoy your way of life!

    I have a micro camper and worry about it getting stolen but they are highly prized right now. I put heavy duty locking chucks on my wheels. Trimax wheel Chuck lock. And I did the same I increased my vehicle insurance to include my trailer. Please keep us updated and my heart is breaking for you two. God Speed.

You are being a positive influence in people's lives through your diversity and you have an opportunity to express your faith as you live by it. The way you are living life is bringing joy to literally thousands of people. That is an excellent way to live your life. You already know that there is a much bigger picture than the loss of temporary things. Thank you for what you are doing.

    I am so sorry and know exactly how you feel. We have had thousands of dollars of items stolen from our property in rural New Mexico. We are seniors living on a fixed income and find it difficult to purchase cameras and cannot get insurance because it is raw land. Even trailers and log splitters chained were cut off with a grinder. We have thought about giving up but then remember the old saying “ don’t let the bastards win”! Hang on to your dream and protect your belongings the best you can. Best of luck to you.

And you are SO right, it is just 'things' and the important part is being safe, alive and together. You two compliment and balance each other out so well. No one ever said life would be easy, there will be good and bad times, and then there's just times when it really, really sucks! BUT, Cody, like you so wisely said, God's got a plan. Just keep the faith and keep being thankful for the blessings of a new day. God bless you two!

    That totally sucks. I know how you feel. My Class C RV (I am a full timer) was smashed up by a semi-truck (hit & run). Then, yesterday, at the hotel I am staying in awaiting repairs to be done on the RV, someone stole my mini-bike & mountain bicycle from the trailer on my car. Total bummer.
    But you two give me hope that things will work out.

I first started watching you when you did an episode on kayak camping and I was hooked. I am also very impressed with your cooking skills. Each dish looks phenomenal. Thanks for sharing your experiences both good and bad. It really helps to know the pros and cons of camping full time. One last comment about the awesome drone shots. Love them!

    Sorry for your loss. I hate a thief . I had a truck camper stolen a few years ago . Took it out of truck as needed to do some maintenance on the truck and it was going to be in the shop 2 days. It was in a campground. Never had a problem before. Well came back to an empty site. They thought I left early. I paid for 2 months and was there 3 days. Never got it back hope you have good insurance. I had Allstate. Not good. Fought for 4 months to get paid. Good luck
