Full-Time RVing Unfiltered: 99 Adventures & BraysAway Talk Solar, Travel Speed, & Alaska

In this episode, we sit down with Jim and Kim from BraysAway for a real, unfiltered conversation about life on the road as full-time RVers.
We dive into how they made the leap into full-time RV living—what pushed them to start, what they’ve learned along the way, and what they wish they’d known before hitting the road.
Jim and Kim also share the details of their solar installation—why they chose it, how it’s changed their travel flexibility, and what they’d do differently. We also talk about their exciting upcoming trip to Alaska and what it takes to plan a journey that big in an RV.
One of the most fun parts of this conversation? Comparing travel styles.
Alan and Kim of 99 Adventures embrace a slower, more stationary pace—staying longer in places, work camping, and really settling in.
BraysAway? They’re more “fast and furious,” maximizing time off to see as many national parks and bucket-list destinations as possible in a short window.
Two couples. Two travel speeds. One shared love for the RV lifestyle.
Whether you’re dreaming about going full-time, considering solar, planning Alaska, or trying to figure out your own travel style, this episode gives you real-world perspective from both ends of the spectrum.

State and National Camping Perks for Veterans

Many veterans don’t realize their military service unlocks free or discounted camping, state park benefits, and free access to national parks—and the rules can change depending on the state, disability status, and even residency.
In this video, we break down:
✔️ Veteran camping benefits from multiple states
✔️ State-level benefits for resident and non-resident veterans
✔️ Disability vs non-disability camping benefits
✔️ National park access for veterans
✔️ The America the Beautiful Military Pass and Access Pass
✔️ Who qualifies, what’s covered (and what’s not), and how to get it
✔️ How to verify benefits before you travel so you don’t miss out
State park benefits vary widely across the U.S.—some states offer free day-use, some offer discounted camping, and others reserve the biggest perks for disabled or resident veterans. We also explain how national park benefits differ from state parks and what veterans should expect when planning a trip.
If you’re a veteran, retiree, Guard/Reserve member, or military family who loves camping, RVing, or road trips, this video will help you travel smarter and avoid surprises.

18. Work Camping Woes

In this episode, we share the lessons we’ve learned between two very different work camping jobs at RV parks. From understanding your true job responsibilities to knowing what amenities are available—and making sure you have the right tools and resources to get the work done—we break down the questions every work camper should ask before accepting a position.
We also dive into one of the most important takeaways from our experience: always being prepared for the unexpected. Whether it’s sudden weather changes or a full-on evacuation, having a plan can make all the difference when you live and work on the road.
Join us as we talk through the highs, the headaches, and the hard-earned wisdom that comes with life as a work camper.

16. Keeping Your RV Tanks Happy...It's A Dirty Job

This episode of 99 Adventures dives into one of the less glamorous—but essential—parts of RV life: keeping your black tank clean. Alan and Kim break down why proper maintenance matters, from preventing clogs and odors to keeping sensors accurate. They share day-to-day habits like using plenty of water, waiting until the tank is two-thirds full before dumping, and always using RV-safe toilet paper.
The takeaway? A little routine care keeps your black tank fresh, functional, and worry-free—making RV adventures much smoother.

14. TX Flooding + CO Adventures

The devastating flooding in Texas has struck uncomfortably close to home—quite literally. Our home base at 99 Adventures sits near the epicenter of the July 4th flooding in the Texas Hill Country. It's a stark reminder of just how critical it is to have a GO BAG ready as part of any emergency preparedness plan. In this episode, we also shift gears to share the incredible time we had four-wheeling through the mountains of Colorado and our relaxing visit to Pagosa Springs.
