And I had big intentions of writing prolifically about it to share with you. However, I didn’t anticipate just […]
Salvation Mountain at Slab City – Leonard Knight’s Message of Love
Some people have a calling, a message they must deliver to the world. Most never act on this. But a rare few are overcome with purpose, and devote their lives to the call.

Our Mobile Technology Arsenal

We don’t normally pre-plan our routes in advance so finding a place to set up camp—whether it be just for a night, a few days or several weeks—is something we do on the fly.

Thrilling Changes!
One itch that being nomadic scratches is my seeming need for new experiences, new surroundings and a change of pace.

Taking away our option to move our house creates an interesting feeling that we’ve not felt […]
