VAN LIFE AT THE GRAND CANYON (our dog's first national park)

Описание: We spent the last year converting our 2021 Ford Transit cargo van into a home on wheels. Recently we headed out in our first test trip and drove from Northern CA to Austin, TX in 4 days. Now on our way back, we're stopping at a Harvest Host in New Mexico before taking our van to our first free camping spot outside the Grand Canyon!
