Field Notes from Life on the Road
I’m on the road in the van, sharing Field Notes—short posts, photos, and videos from rides, hikes, camps, and the places in between. I also log practical stops along the way: showers, laundry, groceries, coffee, and overnight parking, plus rough itineraries and route notes as trips take shape.
Upcoming.
January
Arkansas + Colorado
January kicked off with a westbound drive from Birmingham and a run of Arkansas stops—Mount Nebo State Park, Devil’s Den State Park, and a longer stretch in Bentonville. From there I headed into Colorado to visit a long-time friend in Longmont, spent a few days in Keystone before pushing on when the snow didn’t cooperate, and continued west to ride in Grand Junction and Fruita.
February
Utah
March
February picks up in Utah, where I’m settling into desert miles and red rock terrain. Riding and exploring around Moab, then branching out to other stops as weather and trail conditions allow. The van stays parked a little longer this month, with days built around riding, hiking, and seeing how the route unfolds from there.
March is starting off still in Moab. But, we are headed to a few national parks this week: Capital Reef, Bryce, Escalante, and who knows what else will sneak up on us on the road. Stay tuned.
