Fun loving, camper van owning couple Details: My husband, Bill and I (Nancy) enjoy all things outdoors, We recently purchased a camper van and are busy planning and going on adventures in our van. We took a leap of faith and bought the van used in Carson City NV...dropped everything and flew out to get it sight unseen...best decision ever! Home Town: When we're not traveling, we love playing in the mountains and the Arkansas River near our house in Salida, Colorado. We also have a house in Colorado Springs Favorite Boondocking Locations: We mostly boondock on national forest land in the western US. Wherever we're currently camping is our favorite location! Skills or Expertise to Share: Bill is an engineer and is very capable of fixing lots of things. First fix on the van was the Thule automatic steps. Nancy is great at talking!

Nancy and Bill offered a nice little parking area in the perfect location which was within a very short drive or walking distance to all that downtown Salida has to offer. They were outstanding hosts and made us feel like one of their neighborhood friends.

This little happy place was the perfect spot to tuck away for the night on my way north. Quiet street parking, on gravel, level with easy access, and Nancy could not have been more kind and welcoming!
