Traveling Light Reflections
We are Jack and Patty! We have camped for most of our lives with our children and by ourselves, as they grew older. Our experiences include everything from tent camping, car camping, risking a 28-year-old Class C, a variety of travel trailers and our most recent, a small fifth wheel. We have made 4 cross-country RV trips. We are currently loving our 2023 Grand Design 150 Series 226RK 5th Wheel. Our passions include, Patty-pickleball, Jack-photography and writing. We both love playing our ukuleles.
Over the years I have learned many things about modifying, repairing and maintaining RVs. I have written some articles to share some of what I have learned. The link to the articles I have currently finished is at the top left of this page.

Articles and Reviews
While on the road we have discovered the Ukulele. This is a wonderful, joyful instrument.
It is perfect for RVers because of its size.
It does not come without challenges though. An RV is a harsh environment for wooden instruments because its inside temperatures and humidity can change drastically in a short period of time.
​
We have all types of ukuleles from solid wood to durable, synthetic, outdoor ukes.
​
Here you will find info on the best ukuleles for RVers, the advantages and disadvantages to different build materials and how to maintain your ukuleles in an RV.
The TrekPod Camera Tripod
The TrekPod was born from need. As someone who loves hiking and photography, Jack was always searching for a way to lighten his load. Jack always hiked with hiking poles and knew there had to be a way to use the hiking poles for a tripod and eliminate the extra weight. He developed the TrekPod which is light-weight and works with the hiking poles you and your hiking partner are already carrying.
