    2005 Leisure Travel Mercedes Sprinter Camper van

    Sold it. $35k cash. Anybody thinking of buying a delivery Sprinter and then "building it out" is nuts. This thing was loaded and if you look hard enough, you'll eventually find another. Thing was a champ.

    Looking to by a van for camper conversion

    We will be putting our 2005 Leisure Travel van up for sale next week. Hard to beat at $35,000. Took it all the way down to Guatemala last winter at PanAmTallman.Wordpress.com. Why try to convert when these things have finished bathrooms, kitchens, generators, a/c, awnings etc.? Just bought a...

    Is there anything to do in Colorado?

    Hell, the Tommyknocker Brewery in Idaho Springs, the Dillon Dam Brewery in Dillon or the Backcountry Brewery in Frisco both just off the highway, the Glenwood Canyon including Hanging Lakes (or just stop at the rest areas and read about the whole construction process), and then what the hell is...

    Paradise 2 Pavement

    Well, too bad I just came across this. Live outside of Dillon, ski pass for Keystone and A-Basin and snowshoe right outside my back door with a view to the Continental Divide. If you drop back down to I-70 you can drive through the awesome Glenwood Canyon and get a free dip at the South Canyon...

    Guatemala and Back!

    Other than a very hot and chaotic border crossing, Guatemala was indded chill. Took us about 45 nights to get from Nogales to Guatemala City, 22 of those nights were spent by ourselves! Only Teotihuacan and Oaxaca (del Tule) had Americans, and those were a family of three from Colorado and a...

    Montana to Panama... and back?

    If you do plan to drive back, save the colonial middle of Mexico for last. Higher elevation and cooler temperatures. We have been Huatulco to Puerto Escondido the past two weeks at 90 plus every day.
