Unless you do it right. Here are some tips to guarantee your four-wheel drive, the open road, and all the sights in between are nothing short of fantastic.

My new inspiration. It’s EXACTLY what I envisioned Backseat Ballads to be like when we started out. These guys are amazing: beautiful scenery, gorgeous photos and entertaining videos.
We can do this guys.

I guess it’s a common dream as a kid to have your own cubby/treehouse. One day I’ll build one for my kids, though I get the feeling I’ll be spending more time in there than them!

I discovered Poler Stuff not even two weeks ago and I’m in love. I’ve already planned on buying a few items from their store (the rumpsack is a must) but what I found the most appealing is their Adventure series. Hopefully one day my work will appear on their website as well!

I still have yet to hold one of these in person. Sad
Right now I’m working on a print edition of Backseat Ballads; a cross between Kinfolk/Paper Sea Quarterly and a high-school yearbook. I was involved with the yearbook committee for many years and it’s only now I realised I should have pursued a career in print/magazine design.
Still, it’s been a challenge but a joy trying to bring it all together. It’s quite hush-hush at the moment as I’m planning to make it then give one to Raye before she leaves. She doesn’t even check out this blog anymore so I don’t think she’ll even know. Regardless I’m just waiting on some of the guys to finish their writeups of the fourth camp (Mt Buffalo/Bright) so I can finally get around to making the damn thing.
Oh and I need to learn how to use InDesign as well…
