One of the most difficult lessons that I’ve had to learn in embracing a nomadic lifestyle is trusting that things will work out. It’s difficult to take a leap not knowing knowing where you’ll land. When I decided to embark on full time nomadism, I couldn’t have picked a worse economic time. I had a [...]

We journeyed to Hohenwald Tennessee in May to visit the Oliver Factory to handle a few issues with our trailer. Afterwards, we wanted to find a nice place to camp where we could put down roots for an entire week to get caught up on projects and just spend some time enjoying being at home. The [...]

I love when nomadic serendipity takes us to experiences that we couldn’t even imagine a day prior. While driving northward towards St. Louis, we decided to route through Arkansas up scenic byway 7.

On our way into Carlsbad Caverns, we opted to route through White Sands National Monument in southeast New Mexico, expecting it to be a quick stop. We thought at first.. how interesting can sand dunes be? Afterall, I lived on the coast of Florida for 13 years – I’ve seen my share of [...]

Heading south through New Mexico on our way to White Sands National Monument, we made a slight detour to check out the Three Rivers Petroglyph Site. It made for a much appreciated hiking break, viewing of cool petroglyphs and great scenery. There is also camping available at the site – including two pull through RV [...]
