Historically, this has always been the hardest time of the year for me to go camping as it seems that the rest of the world also has the same idea. Finding campground reservations are always at a premium. This is one of the reasons why I love to boondock, but that is increasingly becoming more difficult on the east coast. Where are you this holiday weekend?

If you have ever wanted to spend the night on the grounds of an abandoned haunted prison near a fun distillery - boy do I have a fun camping event for you! TNT Overland hosts their event the last weekend in March at Brushy Mountain State Prison (now closed). If you are interested, they have camping passes still available https://www.tntoverlander.com/s/stories/2026southeastoverlandcampingevent Comment below if you want to go

There are quite a few meetups throughout North America. I would love to get a list of places that you are either planning on attending or would love to attend. I have a list on www.Vanlife.Travel under the events section that I typically look at when I am in different parts of the country.

Only 17 days away till the Southeast Adventure Vehicle Expo in Starke, Florida! If you made it to VanFest, you know what a great time we all had hanging out. They will have me parked in the influencer section and there are areas right outside the influencer area at we can all have a fire pit and hang out in the evening. My rig will be easy to spot. I'll try to save some spaces.
