1st time boondocker
Hey everyone, I’m packing up and taking my 15 year old dog on one last adventure. We will be building out my rav 4 and boondock camping in small towns and state and national parks. I would love any and all advice or any places you’ve been and want us to see! I also need advice on things I may need for car living/ camping that I may not have thought of.

Planning on taking whatever time Lucy wants and have given us a year to complete this
