Monday at Home Base

It’s just an ordinary day at Keevs5. We are homeschooling, working, and doing laundry. Video editing is in full swing this week as we are trying to create as much as possible so others can be entertained and maybe even find some cool places to travel to. Our next video takes us back to Spring Break of this year when we took our RV out for our first “off the grid” boondocking experience.

What is boondocking? Boondocking is camping with no connections like electricity, water, or sewer. We took it a step further, by having zero cellular connection! We had no contact with the outside world (or each other when in separate vehicles) when we were at or traveling to our RV!

Boy did we learn a lot! We made some major mistakes, even damaged our RV in the process. We also discovered how inefficient our new solar system was, had voltage drops, and couldn’t even get our batteries charged fully with our generator! This is when we discovered the inverter only recognized one leg of our 50 amp generator! It was challenging, but also amazing at the same time! We will be making two videos of our experiences there: one of the boondocking (nightmare?!) and the other of the beautiful Big Bend National Park!
