About Us

By


We are the Buckhalters; a family of 6 that decided to take a giant leap of faith and travel the country while living full time in an RV. We invite you to follow us through the ups and downs of such an unconventional way of life, visiting all the beautiful and wonderful places we can throughout this exciting journey, and dealing with all sorts of unexpected obstacles along the way. We don’t expect it to be easy, but the timeless memories, tangible experiences, and challenging life lessons are much more than worth it!

"For we walk by faith, not by sight" ~ 2 Corinthians 5:7 ~

Travel Recap #14: California Dreamin' - Part 2

  “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” ~ St. Augustine ~ Our route southward from the desert took us back down through San Bernardino toward Palm Springs. We overnighted at a Casino in Indio, witnessed an incredible sunset over the mountains with palm trees in the foreground, finished up our customary in-town chores, then continued the next day to the dispersed camping area south of Joshua Tree National Park. What a cool place to hang out for awhile!!   We found a spot with plenty of space and enjoyed several days of bike-riding and low-key homeschooling. The kids had fun collecting whole dead bushes for campfire fodder, and Taren went to work hand-carving a long and elaborate track for everyone to ride on throughout the wide campsite. It turned out great!! The day we ventured in to Joshua Tree, we drove up through the South Entrance past a bunch of Ocotillo and to our first quick hike around the Cholla Cactus Garden. It was crazy to see thousa...

God With Us: A Debt of Gratitude

  “Enter His gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to Him; bless His name!” ~ Psalm 100:4 ~ *I mentioned in the previous post that it has been a long time since I’ve written or updated the blog, and it has. Part of the reason is that life is just plain busy and I juggle quite a few responsibilities, but it also happened that my YouTube account got deleted over the summer and along with it, every last blog video we had. I thought the majority were gone for good and didn’t want to address the volume of work it would take just to get what we already had back, so I kept putting everything off. Over the holidays, I realized I was now a full year behind in writing about our travels (wow- who zapped 2024 off the timeline that quick?), and I missed getting feedback from family on things when I did post. So, I tackled the growing elephant in the room, and yes, it was quite a project. We’re not all the way back and running yet like we were (Justin will have to carv...

  “The pain of parting is nothing to the joy of meeting again.” ~ Charles Dickens ~ Friends and Family!!! It’s been forever since I’ve updated, I KNOW!! Life!! I’ll mention more about it in another post, and the videos are going to be few and far between (sorry, sorry), but let’s at least get back to the memories for now - it’s been a full year and a FULL year since I last recorded our adventures, so let’s see… where were we? Oh, yes. Wonderful, warm and sunny Arizona!! We crossed over from California, passing through Yuma (where a great many snowbirds and seniors stay in the colder months) and heading north on Hwy 95. We landed in a remote and beautiful site outside Palm Canyon and the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge. It was just perfect dispersed camping on what seemed like hard-packed volcanic rock, surrounded by cactus plants and a whole lot of open, uninhabited desert wilderness. The sunsets were amazing and we had a sweet view of the Kofa Mountains to the east. What an awesome ...
