Spring GTG 2015 Racoon Creek Alabama

Spent a very nice week camping with my friends in early April.  Good weather and good friends !!

Heading to Racoon Creek in Alabama next week for 10 days of camping.  Been working hard on my rig. Life is grand !!

Spring is just about here.  Love it,  Van is running great.  Did a lot of work to it over the winter.  Will do a lot of camping this year !!!

So tired of the cold and the wet.  I hate winter,  On the plus side bought new tires for my rig!!

Well  as some of you may have noticed,  I lost all my photos.  DANG    Well time to start over.

Here are a bunch of interior shots of my rig. Pretty happy with the new layout.

Ohhh yah.,,

Big FAT pork ribs.  6 hours on the grill.  Low and slow.   Lots of spice, juicy and tender

Thrive foods

Thrive foods is a Freeze dried long term storage food system that I think will be great for van dwelling and also for Long term emergency storage in case of any type of serious food shortage.

Review of Thrive foods.    Ok,  got my order of freeze dried Thrive foods with a 25 year shelf life.  I tried the ground beef and added the freeze dried onions.   Pretty good really.  Texture and flavor were favorable.

Prep was a snap,  added a little water to a cup of beef and half a cup of onion, waited a few minutes and heated it up in my cast iron skillet with a bit of spaghetti sauce. 

Ate every bite and enjoyed it.  Probably won't eat it much at home but camping and CERTAINLY for a SHTF situation this stuff is the BOMB.
