What if Peter Pan had a blowtorch? City Museum!

Aug 10, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard Leave a Comment

We’re often asked what our favorite things are in our travels. The City Museum in downtown St. Louis, Missouri is without a doubt, on tops of that list.  And who would have thought that in the center of the midwest stands one of the most amazing creations around? The City Museum is no ordinary museum, […]

Video Edition: Fairmont Water Works

Aug 10, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard Leave a Comment

A meshing of civil engineering and ecosystem art, the Fairmont Water Works interactive center gives a peak back in time to when water distribution throughout Philadelphia allowed the city to survive and thrive. Located at the base of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, spending some time at the interactive center is well worth your time […]

Current Office View

Aug 8, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 2 Comments

Using a combination of the WordPress widget QuickFlickr, a Flickr account and a free iPhone app called ‘Flickr Sendr’ – we have added a new feature to our blog – our current office view! So now we will update our office view regularly (which may be where we’re currently parked, visiting or shots from the […]

Video Edition: Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens

Aug 8, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard Leave a Comment

As you wander throughout downtown Philadelphia, particularly around South Street, you’ll notice a lot of buildings decorated with broken mosiac murales. These are the artwork of Isaiah Zagar, and you can tour his huge installation at Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens at 1020 South Street. We first stumbled upon this place by sheer serendipity, and were instantly […]

Inside the Traveler’s Mind – on Travellious

Aug 5, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard Leave a Comment

For the past couple of months we’ve enjoyed corressponding with Kelley over at the fabulous Travellious website.  And for the past two weeks we’ve been very excitedly following her own 2 week road trip from Seattle to the Travel Blog Exchange conference in Chicago. We even marveled at the Wondermap that they created to track […]

Yesterday we left our awesome free lakefront campsite near Junction City, Kansas and spent the day driving through rural Kansas and eastern Colorado.  But before we left, my Living on NST – Nomadic Standard Time post that I wrote over the weekend was scheduled to post, and I got a tweet out about it. It […]

Living on NST – Nomadic Standard Time

Aug 3, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 8 Comments

Asking us about our upcoming travel plans is akin to asking for a weather forecast. We may have a fairly accurate idea of what the next few hours may hold, and that there is a chance of some snow in the winter. But the details in between are hard to pin down, particularly more than […]

Ways to Support Technomadia

Aug 2, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 3 Comments

You may have noticed that this website doesn’t have any intrusive advertising. Unlike many bloggers, we are not focused on trying to turn this website into a major source of income for us. We both have other careers that fund our lifestyle, and we keep this website up to both encounter other like minded people […]

Travelogue: Philadelphia, DC, Appalachians & St Louis

Jul 31, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard Leave a Comment

Time Period: June 30 — July 29 Miles Driven: 1904 We had no plans for how to spend the summer. We had toyed with the idea of finding a nice campground in the Smokey Mountains and parking for several weeks to catch up on some work projects.  We had toyed with ducking into Canada and […]

Happy Birthday, Orion!

Jul 31, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard Leave a Comment

One year ago today, we drove to Hohenwald, Tennessee and picked up our custom built dream technomadic home – a 17′ Oliver Legacy Elite by Oliver Travel Trailers. We named it Orion. Since then, we’ve taken our home all around the country. Orion has been coast to coast and has visited 26 states in its […]
