Camping at Promontory Park in Estacada, OR

Episode 50 | Filmed June 2024 | Estacada, Oregon, USA
--------------------
Alice and Kristin are a married couple in their 40's. After our kids moved out of the house we decided to stop paying rent and hit the road for #vanlife. We bought a 1999 Ford E-450 El Dorado Shuttle bus off craigslist for $7,000 and did a studs up remodel ourselves.
--------------------
In this episode we head to the Portland area on our first adventure! We stayed in a campground at Promontory Park on the North Fork of the Clackamas River near Estacada, Oregon. We wanted to start with a campsite because it would be a lot easier to start with having bathrooms, water, safety, location, showers, etc all within reach. The weeks went great! There are several things we need to fix already, like the bed, solar, hitch, and fridge but they're all fixable. We even took Cypress out on a boat on the lake :)
