Day ten of van life 3.0, October 8th, 2025

Today's relive video and map of the Coney's travels.

A fun day of traveling, and Janet and I are getting into a rhythm of driving, blogging and enjoying live in the van.
We left Kanoplois with a an early start.  As luck would have it we find the showers at the state park shower then to the lake for sunshine photos.

Laundry day for the Coney's...  21 minutes later we are at the laundry with internet and a cute puppy I wish I got a photo of.  But will have to go with a photo of the place instead. 
After loads of laundry, we now have fresh clothes to wear, life is good. 

We back track only a little to visit Coronado heights Castle.  It's on a bit of a dirt road, but Ka'a Nui eats it up.


Inside the Spanish castle
Our trusty stead waits for us.



My fair maiden

Kansas historic marker
Auto stop, we look so small..
We visit some churches...
And the state capitol.

And the Kansas sign
Our trust stead awaits us...

On to the next boarder, we hide behind the sign posts..
Onward and we make it to Pershing for the night.

Home for the night...
We meet Bill 1 and Bill 2, one is a camp host who should not be camp hosting.  The other bill is super cool, a professional photographer and is putting out a book on deadheads.  Great guy to chat with and we compare notes on motorcycles to promaster vans.



Dinner is a group project, sausage, zucchini with tomato, chuncksnof cheese and pasta sauce.


Nomnom...
It pairs well with a vintage beer, beer must be at least six days old.  But really tastes great 
We go for a pre dinner walk..  see the actual walk on relive.. lol
Coconut was great!

We had a great dinner after we found the hot showers, and got ready for bed.

I get up early for the evening

 Ka'a Nui - The Big Van Project   2024      -      www.johnconey.com/kaanui_home.shtml A blog about the setup of the RV Ka'a Nui, a 2021 Dodge Promaster van purchased on February 28, 2024.  A huge hand goes out to Howard and Tim, who drove me to Kona to meet the seller and have lunch.  Great people and tons of fun for sure.  The van is a tall 9-4" Promaster van with 136" wheelbase (wb), front-wheel drive.  For electrical, it supports a 230a high output alternator and 700 watts of solar (more on that later). Sooo, why buy a van.  The current concept is to fix and build it out into a sleeper van to include a bed, toilet, sink, fridge and other amenities and ship it to the mainland in a few years when done. June 22, 2024 Progress happens, finally got a weekend of sunny weather to work on solar.  Cut three holes, added grommets to protect the wires, and cleaned up the solar wiring.  Now bringing 8awg line into ...
