Day 674: September 9, 2025
ODO: 346,240 We wake up to wind. Strong wind. It’s the only thing keeping the temperature bearable. We’re camped in a municipal park along the river with a lot of blue and yellow macaws hiding in the trees. Their signature move is to make a serious ruckus twice a day. All of our friend leave…

Day 667: September 2, 2025
ODO: 344,809 Our parts have arrived, so we are out of here! Pick up is smooth, just like last time. We haven’t been able to reach our mechanic yet, but we head over anyways. It takes a long time to get Berne across town to the gear guy, so long in fact, that its too…

Day 660: August 26, 2025
ODO: 343,101 We set up for a quiet week of anxiously waiting… On Wednesday we get the truck and camper back in order. Somewhat. We put away the tools we had out at the mechanic, and all of our things that needed to be Ubered back to us. We play with the dog, and Berne…

Day 653: August 19, 2025
ODO: 343,101 Finally, FINALLY, our parts have arrived!! We close up the tent and head into Asuncion. If all goes to plan we should be here for the day, two days tops. Parts pick us is a breeze, and just down the street from the mechanic. Perfect. Marco, the owner of the mechanic shop we…

Uruguay Summary
From our map, it’s pretty obvious we only crossed the border into Uruguay to be able to say we’ve been to Uruguay. There is so much of this country left to explore! We only ventured an hour from the border crossing. Overall the roads were great, and the people seemed very friendly. Days in Country:…

Day 646: August 12, 2025
ODO: 343,090 Most of our week is spent online at work. It’s very rare that we have such a work heavy week outside of the office. We don’t get as much friend time as we would like, which is sad when Hanno and Anna leave us to continue their journey north. We do have a…

Day 639: August 5,2025
ODO: 343,007 Everyone wakes up with a tummy ache…Guess that fancy steak house was as good as it tasted. The plan was to be at the entrance to Iguazu Falls National Park at 8:00am when it opened. Our thinking was, since sunrise is at 7:30am, we may get to see some dawn-ish wildlife. Unfortunately, we…

Day 632: July 29, 2025
ODO: 342,506 This campground is so nice and quiet that we continue enjoying our rest. But actively resting, we take a casual stroll around town, which takes us about fifteen minutes. There are three hot (warm) pools, one indoor, one outdoor, and one half and half. There is also a small block of stores, and…

Day 625: July 22, 2025
ODO: 341,850 Its pouring rain. Our ride is very punctual. The truck battery is dead when we arrive. Damnit. This is why we have the little jump box. We settle up. They don’t change us for electricity. We have nowhere to go, so we stay and take a nap in the truck, in the barn.…

ODO: 341112 Three weeks of work, including two exciting client visits, in the bag! Besides work we: On Thursday, we clean our desks and hop a flight up to Portland to finish our work trip out with some vendor visits. Our house has new tenants in it, so we need to do a drive by,…
