Starting in the Pacific Northwest with their truck retrofitted to accommodate their outdoor gear, they began to tour national and state parks, with a vow to only camp and cook along the way with occasional breaks at family and friends’ homes. Their five-month journey is the subject of a series of episodes in the parks of the Northwest.HOST: Lisa KellerGUESTS:Segment 1: Jodi Harskamp and Neal, Tui and Leif StanburyBROADCAST: Thursday, March 25th, 2021. 10-11 a.m. AKTREPEAT BROADCAST: Thursday, March 25th, 2021.
