Thrilling Changes!

Life on the Road Technology

Oct 30, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 3 Comments

One itch that being nomadic scratches is my seeming need for new experiences, new surroundings and a change of pace. This past week, our Jeep which is our tow vehicle, has been in the shop having transmission issues resolved.

Taking away our option to move our house creates an interesting feeling that we’ve not felt in quite a while – being stir crazy! And it’s not like we’re not trapped in paradise – where we’re at in southern California, is simply fantastic.

So, without a way to change our physical surroundings, fellow nomad and lifestyle designer – Cody McKibben of Thrilling Heroics – released his new free WordPress Theme, ThrillingTheme, as the exact right moment!

Using my stir-crazy energy, I put it to use to give Technomadia.com a make over that I had begun contemplating with much help from Chris to get the theme installed for me. Our old site was great, but we were starting to reach the limits of what the theme could do for us.

So, we’re pleased to announce our new look and feel on our virtual home (for those of you on RSS, you’ll need to click through to see it) with much gratitude to Cody for providing an excellent theme! I’m looking forward to what this new foundation can help us build upon.

In other news, during our Jeep’s maintenance they discovered some frame damage where our tow hitch attaches – likely caused by going over too many speed bumps or something. We’re currently in search of a body shop and/or welder in the San Diego area to fix it up next week.  More than likely we’ll be relocating to San Diego this weekend to rendezvous with a whole gang of awesome folks, and then moving eastward with an aim to St. Louis for the holidays.
