Just off the mall in Washington DC is the National Portrait Gallery, housed with the American Art Museum, in the newly renovated former US patent office. Like all of the Smithsonian museums around DC, this one holds more amazing art and stuff to look at than you can possibly absorb in just one visit. The […]

Video Edition: Comcast’s Largest Television Screen
The Comcast Center is Philadelphia’s newest and tallest skyscraper, and within it sits a very impressive 83′ x 25′ (that’s feet.. not inches) television screen. It’s claimed to be the world’s largest TV, and it’s free to visit in the lobby of the Comcast Center – open day and night. When we first got off […]
Travelogue: St. Louis to Indiana
Time Period: June 12 – June 29 Miles Driven: 799 After a couple of weeks of our adventures being driven on visiting family in Texas and St. Louis, our attentions turned to social time with new and old friends. We had found some regional Burning Man events to attend, and even rendezvoused with another friend […]
Trusting Things Will Work Out
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 […]
Two Years Shampoo Free
I love the look on people’s faces when I tell them I’ve not shampooed my hair in nearly 2 years now. I think the image that conjurs up is unruly matted dreads, which is not how my naturally curly red hair looks. And actually, my hair has never been healthier and more manageable than since […]
Travel Full Time with Your Pets – Excuse #6
I’m a cat person, and always have been. When Chris and I set out for our first seven month trial run of traveling together in 2007, we decided that my cat Alma was not meant to be a traveling cat. Alma never enjoyed car trips (or Hurricane evacuations!), and it just didn’t seem right to […]
Video Edition: Hot Springs National Park
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. This put us overnighting around Hot Springs, Arkansas. We looked around, and discovered there was a national park and campground, so that […]
3 Benefits of Living in a Small Space
A very common question we’re asked is if we ever wish we had selected a larger living space. Our quick answer is, no – our space is perfect and well considered for our needs. At only 80 square feet of living space, our Oliver Travel Trailer is a lot smaller than most folks consider […]
Cameras for Sale!
In our travels, we try out a lot of tech. We’re also always refreshing our tech, and we end up with great tech that we need to dispose of. Of course we can sell it on Amazon or eBay – but we’d much rather sell to friends and followers. It virtually eliminates the chances of […]
