Our new ride!











We decided to get an upgrade! The flip pac is still an awesome road trip vehicle, but we are going to try out our new van, which will hopefully be all set and ready to road trip this fall :) In the meanwhile Brendan has installed a hand-weaved net for Sky in the flip pac. We just spent a few days in Rifle last week. We got rained on a fair amount, but still got some great climbing in, both of us. We just bought a 1986 VW van, which Brendan went to go get in Las Vegas! He flew down, and drove the newly purchased van to Colorado! Brendan has since been working a bunch on it, despite very little free time... and made a list of thing he is planing on getting done for our sweet ride :) The plan is to swap the engine (so that we can actually register it in Colorado!) and make it as good as the flip pac: hot water, heater, baby and passenger friendly for long driving hours, etc. Have a look!

That's the way to travel! One truck is carrying the tools to fix the other (and vice versa) !
