  • Trips, Trials & Ticks
    May 11 2026

    On this episode, we talk about our recent trip to Florida, and our upcoming trip to the N.C. Outer Banks. We also talk about ways to keep unwelcome guests in the outdoors - ticks, chiggers, mosquitoes - at bay when you're camping, and talk about what to look for in your repellent products. I've enjoyed having Susan on the podcast with me, and I'm working on some better audio solutions for when we're both at the mic. In the meantime, enjoy a grab-bag of an episode, and don't forget to like, subscribe, rate & comment! Thank you all SO much for being listeners, you're the reason we do this.

    In this episode, Susan and I share lessons learned from 6 years of overlanding. Learn from our mistakes, and find out how to pick out the right gear - and even the right vehicle - for your style of travel. Overlanding is expensive enough without having to purchase costly items multiple times, so listen in as we recount some of the things we wish we would have done differently!

    Today, I sit down with my wife, Susan, to talk about our recent trip to wheel in the Croatan National Forest, and also to score some treats in nearby Swansboro, and lunch at a GREAT barbecue restaurant we found in Hubert, NC. We talk about upcoming trips and the current situation with Bonnie, our Tacoma OR. Settle in and listen as we tackle the Croatan!
