The Roll'n

THE DEETS

WHO Are We and WHY Do We Think We Are Special?

My name is Kacey. And his name is Bill (Aka Hun and Cabana Boy). We have a Spawn. I’m a super awesome Travel & Executive Assistant who has decided to take this show virtual. He is a musician who is uber talented and underappreciated, as most artists are. I talked him into getting a travel trailer “just for fun” and now I'm taking him on the road with me (technically I ride, while he drives). Spawn is… Spawn. And super awesome at everything.

Day 1
Day 1 in Our New Trailer!

I also think I’m fraking hilarious and I hope I can capture that in writing. I will use a lot of pop culture references that may need to be researched (i.e. “Frak”). You can count on lameness, but it’ll make you smile. ESPECIALLY the Dad jokes. We all LOVE the Dad jokes!
Did I mention that I have 20 years of experience planning travel for others? Did I also mention that Cabana Boy is notorious for his road shows where he plays a full show with all the lights and whistles our rig can carry?

WHAT the HELL are we doing?

We have no fraking clue. But who does? I mean, really! We have watched a few YouTube videos and consider ourselves semi-pros now. *Insert maniacal laugh here* Side note… I have also searched the depths of Pinterest and I’m tired of iddy biddy teenie weenie pictures of “Top 10/100 Organizational Ideas.”
Then... One day, I had a crazy idea… “Hey! I love researching and planning our trips! Wouldn’t it be awesome if I got paid to do this for us and for others?!?” and “Wouldn’t it be funny to document all of the crazy Griswold events that happen on our trips?”
That idea has turned into this ROCKIN’ site and this AMAZEBALLS theme song (link coming soon), courtesy of previously mentioned uber talented Cabana Boy.

When-EVER

We tend to plan mostly by the seat of our pants. For me, the ultimate planner and organizer (I am a calendar wiz for Execs, you know), this can be… Exciting (stressful). I love it! *Insert another maniacal laugh here* Some trips, like Burning Man, takes MONTHS of preparation and reference to everything done in previous years.

Where-EVER

From the beaches of Southern California, to the deserts of Arizona, to the mountains of Colorado and the open space of Wyoming (oh, and Burning Man), we are very excited to go wherever we get a chance. Thinking up North, or maybe down South after hurricane season... Wanna go for a ride? Just kidding… We don’t have the space. BUT, we invite you to check out our site. Click on a few links. Maybe learn some stuff. Maybe tell us about some stuff.

Come out to the coast, we'll get together, have a few laughs...

NEW PAGE!

We've just added a new page to our site to cover all the amazingness that is Cabana Boy! I call it "The Rock'n." CHECK IT OUT! If you have any photos of The Anomaly or Cabana Boy, you can post them on our Facebook page or email them to hunrnrta@gmail.com. We also re-titled our "About" page to " The Roll'n ." I thought it was more appropriate. Peace Out - RNRTA 4 LIFE

Well... We just Got Plugged on Local Radio Loadspeaker

So, I figured I better post something so you all know we are still Rock'n and Roll'n.  You can't see us, but we're here I've been busting my hump with my side gig ( Virtual Admin for those looking for some organizational help virtually) and still started planning not one, but TWO trips. And Cabana Boy... Well, read on. Trip number one has been in the works for some time as my MIL was very interested in a road trip down memory lane. She spent quite some time in Tucson, AZ taking care of her elderly aunt a few years ago. Well, ten years later and she thought it would be neat to check things out. I planned her FIRST camping trip! I was so excited. We got her little cabins right next to our trailer spots (SHOUT OUT to the KOAs for working with us!). I planned a lot, but not too much. The Grand Canyon via the train, Bearizona, Tucson, etc. Very excited. And Spawn was ecstatic! "We're going camping with Jamma!" Trip number two was up to Yellowstone, through

DIY RV Project: Fixing Zero Gravity Blinds

DIY RV Project: Zero Gravity Blinds With all the fun of open and closing and toddler tinkering, our strings were on their final strand. Here are the steps I took to repair our zero gravity blinds, along with a link to the handy YouTube video that guided me through the process. I would've made my own video, but it would have been a Marx Brothers comedy in comparison. Something I'll save for another time.     Above, you will see the issue of the last strand. As I removed the valance, I discovered (as will most removals in our trailer) that the manufacturer took shortcuts on the installation. Instead of installing brackets, they screwed the valance directly to the wall, luck to find a stud, and through the blinds themselves. I'm afraid what I'll find on the next window repair... Once I carefully held the valance away from the blinds, I was able to weasel into the space and remove the blinds from the wall. Here's where the YouTube video comes in handy for the actual rep
