Fun Isn’t Optional—It’s Our Mission at Willard Peak Campground as their Workampers

 We don’t care what anyone says—we ARE fun.

And not just a little fun… we’re talking FUN – FUN – FUN all summer long here at Willard Peak Campground.

Workamping isn’t just a job to us—it’s something we pour our hearts into every single day. And if you’ve ever stayed with us, you already know… we don’t do boring.

🌞 Summer 2026: The “FUN – FUN – FUN” Season

This summer, we made a decision:
We’re turning the energy all the way up.

That means:

• More events
• More laughs
• More community
• And yes… more personality

Evielynne even went all-in and started grabbing fun-themed outfits to match the vibe of each event. Because if you’re going to host something… you might as well be part of the experience, right?

🛒 Grocery Bingo: The Crowd Favorite

Let’s talk about the star of the show—Grocery Bingo Night.

It’s hands-down one of the most popular events in the park. And honestly… we get why.

• 💰 Chance to win $50 off rent (BLUEOUT Game)
• 🛍️ Groceries as prizes (and let’s be real—who doesn’t need that right now?)
• 🎉 A room full of laughter, energy, and friendly competition

And here’s something we stand by:

👉 Everyone goes home a winner. ALWAYS.

That’s not by accident—that’s by design.

Because it’s not just about prizes… it’s about creating a space where people connect, laugh, and feel like they belong.

👕 Let’s Talk About That Shirt…

We have to say it—Mark absolutely rocked his themed shirt like a king at this last event. 😂

Evielynne’s didn’t arrive in time (don’t you hate when that happens?), but don’t worry… she’s locked and loaded for the next Grocery Bingo Night in May, and it’s going to be even better.

💡 Here’s the Honest Truth About Events

What most people don’t see behind the scenes is this:

Events like these take:

• Time
• Money
• Planning
• Energy

And we do it because we genuinely care about the experience our guests have.

So here’s our encouragement to anyone staying at an RV park—not just ours:

👉 Participate in the events. Show up. Be part of it.

Because when you do:

• You help build the community
• You support the people putting it together
• And you end up having way more fun than you expected

---

❤️ Why We Do It

We don’t host events because we have to.

We do it because we love seeing:

• New friendships form
• Laughter echo through the park
• Guests turn into family

That’s what makes all the effort worth it.

🎯 Final Thought from Me Gone RVing Adventures

If you’re staying at Willard Peak Campground this summer…

Don’t just park your RV.

👉 Join the fun. Be part of the memory.

Because around here, we’re not just running a campground—
we’re creating experiences you’ll never forget.

The Truth Behind “They Must Be Rich” RVing is EXPENSIVE

 There’s this funny assumption people sometimes make when they see our life:

“Wow… they must be rich.”

Honestly? That one always makes us laugh.

Let’s set the record straight.

---

🚐 Full-Time Work… Just to Cover Life

Yes, we have a full-time job as on-site managers at Willard Peak Campground. And we’re incredibly grateful for it. But that income? It goes straight to the basics:

• Gas
• Groceries
• Propane
• Cell phones
• Medical expenses

You know… real life.

And here’s the part most people don’t see—we work 7 days a week for that. No clocking out, no “weekends off.” It’s a lifestyle, not just a job.

---

🔁 The Side Hustle Reality

If we stopped there, we wouldn’t make it. So like many people trying to stay ahead, we hustle.

Our additional income streams include:

• Cleaning the sauna
• Running our Traveling Town Crier business
• Affiliate links, promos, cashback apps, GPT (Get Paid To) apps
• And yes… plasma donations

Only Mark can donate plasma (Evielynne is medically disqualified), and even that comes with its own challenges.

---

🩸 The Truth About Plasma Income

Let’s talk real numbers.

Mark donates twice a week and earns about:

• $40 for one visit
• $90 for the second

➡️ Total: $130 per week

That might sound helpful—and it is—but it’s far from life-changing.

Plasma donation takes 1–2 hours per visit, and it’s not always smooth. When a technician misses a vein, it can lead to bruising and recovery time… which means lost income for weeks.

So while plasma helps, it’s not guaranteed, and it’s definitely not easy money.

Poor Mark

🔨 Where That Money Actually Goes (ME Gone RVing Adventures)

We’re not splurging. We’re building.

That plasma money? It’s going straight into our 5th wheel renovation—turning an older RV into our long-term home.

And if you’ve ever renovated anything, you know how fast money disappears:

• A single can of paint? $60
• Supplies? Add up instantly

On top of that:

• Sauna job income goes into Roots Investments (future security)
• Bills like streaming services and phones are paid years in advance
• We keep emergency funds to protect our future

Why? Because RV life can be unpredictable. Jobs can disappear overnight.

---

🛡️ We Don’t Trust Easy Stability

We’ve learned the hard way—this lifestyle requires preparation.

So we:

• Pre-pay bills
• Save aggressively
• Diversify income streams
• Build long-term investments

Not because we’re rich…
But because we refuse to be caught off guard again.

---

❤️ The Real Truth

We’re not rich.

We’re resourceful.
We’re disciplined.
And we work extremely hard for everything we have.

Every dollar has a job. Every side hustle has a purpose.

And when people support us by clicking an affiliate link or engaging with our content—it truly means more than you know. We started being smarter with  BOOK and it's not from Dave Ramsey either!!

---

🙌 Final Thought

Do we wish for a pay raise and a little breathing room?

Absolutely.

But until then, we’ll keep doing what we do best:
Working hard, staying ahead, and building a future we can count on.

Spring Cleaning at Willard Peak Campground: Hard Work, Gratitude & Growth

 Spring is officially here, and with it comes one of the biggest tasks of the season at Willard Peak Campground—spring cleaning.

This past week kicked things into full gear, and we’ll keep pushing forward until the entire RV park is looking its absolute best. There’s something satisfying about watching a place transform right before your eyes… even if it takes a whole lot of sweat to get there.

🚐 Workamping Life: Doing What It Takes

As workampers, we wear a lot of hats—and sometimes that means using what we’ve got to get the job done.

Now, I’ll be honest…
I don’t love using my personal vehicle for campground work.

But when something needs to get done?
We step up.

That said… my wife is not a fan of the scratches 😅
And I’ve officially made a promise:

👉 The next truck will NOT be used for work.

So for now, this one?
Yep… it’s our “dumpy work truck” lol.

---

🌳 The Tree Struggle is Real

One of the biggest challenges we face here is managing the trees.

Some of our guests come in with taller rigs, which means we’re often trimming more than we’d like. And here in Utah?

Tree shade is GOLD.

It’s actually one of the most common concerns we hear:

“We wish there were more trees.”

And honestly—they’re right.

Many of the trees here are older, and while they’ve served the campground well, it’s time to start thinking ahead. New growth is essential if we want to keep this place shaded, comfortable, and inviting for years to come.

---

💛 3.5 Years of Loyalty & Dedication

We’ve now been here for three and a half years, and that means something.

In the workamping world, loyalty and consistency go a long way. Our time here has helped us build a strong RV workamper resume—one that could open doors just about anywhere when the time comes.

But let’s be clear…

👉 We’re not going anywhere right now.
👉 There’s no talk of leaving.

We’re committed to doing our best right here, right now.

At the same time, we understand the reality of this industry:

No position is ever guaranteed.

That’s why we continue to give it our all—every single day.

---

😉 Know Your Worth

And hey… let’s just say it:

If someone out there is offering $25/hour for management…
you might just catch our attention 😄

Because we know the value we bring—and we’re not afraid to say it.

What I used to cut the branches

---

🌸 A Park in Transformation

Right now, the signs of spring cleaning are everywhere.

• Trimmed trees
• Cleaned-up spaces
• Fresh energy throughout the park

It’s all coming together, and it’s starting to look like the perfect small RV campground right here in Willard.

And we’re proud to be a part of that transformation.

---

✨ Final Thoughts

Spring cleaning isn’t just about tidying up—it’s about preparing for what’s ahead.

New guests.
New memories.
A new season.

And we’re here for all of it.

Growing Greens on the Go: How We’re Starting a Compact RV Garden (With 3 Cats!)

 There's something wildly satisfying about watching tiny seedlings turn into dinner when you live on the road. Right now in the RV we're in that eager 8–10 week countdown until it's safe to move plants outside — and I can't wait. Growing vegetables in a rig takes a little creativity (and patience), especially when you share the space with three curious cats.

I used a grow-light setup this season — super easy to install. The plug-and-play lights gave the seedlings the right stretch without stealing floor space, which is gold when every square inch matters. I'm experimenting with different pots, compact varieties, and hydroponic options to see what fits our lifestyle and limited footprint. Last year my husband killed most of my plants while I was at another job site, so this year I'm testing more resilient systems.

Amazon has amazing kits you
can get to get your started

For RV families, go for fast-maturing, compact, low-maintenance crops: herbs like basil, cilantro, and mint; leafy greens such as lettuce, spinach, and kale; even cherry tomatoes, peppers, and radishes can thrive in containers or hanging planters. Hydroponic systems are especially appealing because they often use less water, take up vertical space, and reduce soil mess — a big plus with indoor pets. I'm comparing wick, NFT, and small aeroponic systems for ease and space.

Tips that have helped us: use saucers and trays to protect surfaces, secure pots so curious paws can't tip them, choose compact cultivars and dwarf varieties, and rotate seedlings under lights for even growth. Keep a small watering schedule and a checklist so plants don’t get forgotten during busy workamping weeks.

This season is about learning what our RV prefers. Whether it’s a countertop herb garden or a compact hydroponic tower, growing food on the road is doable. If you have hydroponic setups or cat-proofing hacks that worked for you, drop them below — I’m all ears (and so are the cats). Enjoy!!
