I’ve been feeling it extra hard the past few days. I felt so alone in my feelings of overwhelm, frustration and lack of hope. I found I was losing my ability to read compassion and empathy into communications, and was overly triggered. Things people would say just lead me deeper into depression and seeing myself […]
2020 Travel Route & Year in Review
Maybe ‘travel route’ shouldn’t be so prominent in this year’s review post? Oh well, we’ll go with it. At the end of each year, I always go back and read last year’s Year in Review. And I just had to laugh. As far as our travels in the year ahead — just as we had […]
Introducing our New Van: 2020.5 Winnebago Travato GL
As we shared a couple months ago – besides some gripes, we loved our 2016 Travato G so much, we were ready for an upgrade to a new model. Having a van in our fleet of nomadic vehicles has been perfect as a daily driver and shuttle craft between our vintage bus conversion in the west […]

Holding Still, Holding Firm & Grateful
Wow. Thanksgiving week, already. This year has both flown by, and drug on and on. And I’m sure many of us are looking forward to having 2020 in the rearview mirror. We’ve been pretty quiet these past months except for posts on Instagram and Facebook. Mostly because there just isn’t much to report. A food […]
We Miss Our Jacket – But Life Goes On (A Tale of Two Ducks)
2020 has been a rollercoaster of a decade. Wait. Year. It’s just a year, right? There’s no doubt the state of the world weighs heavy on many. Even if you’re fortunate enough to still have income and a safe place to live. These are tough times. And in tough times, little glimmers of joy become […]
Nomads on Pause: Our Longest Stay Yet!
Five months ago we arrived back to Sanford, Florida – a favorite stop in our prior travels that felt most like home to us. Effectively putting nomadic life on pause as we wait out the pandemic and the craziness of the world. This now marks our longest stay in one place since we hit the […]
RVing and Cruising During Hurricane Season
So here we are again, in the southeast on the precipice of peak hurricane season. Despite hopes and wishes, not only did the season not get rescheduled due to COVID – it seems like the months ahead are shaping up to be a doozy with nearly double the number of predicted storms. At this point, […]
Getting Back to Abundant Desert Boondocking
Earlier this year we returned to our boondocking roots for a month in the deserts of Arizona in our bus. It was oh so wonderful to be out in nature, on our own and feeling abundant in the systems we had long ago setup on Zephyr. From water management, tanks, solar and lithium – in […]
Three Months Still – How We’re Mixing It Up To Keep Sane
When we pulled into Sanford back in late March, we knew we were here for the long haul. Even if the pandemic was appropriately flattened, we figured that would place us smack dab in the middle of hurricane season. Sanford, being pretty well inland in Florida is a pretty safe spot to be for the […]
