Travelogue: California Exodus

Apr 13, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 1 Comment

Time Period: March 22 – April 9, 2009 Miles Driven: 991 On the morning of March 22, 2009 we pulled up the jacks in South San Francisco, hitched up and made a mad dash out of California. Well, mad dash in a nomadic sense. We didn’t actually cross the border into Arizona for another 2 […]

Video Edition: Old Gaviota Bridge

Apr 12, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 2 Comments

On our trip south along the Pacific Coast Highway, we stopped at a scenic overlook just south of Gaviota State Park, which is just north of Santa Barbara. Intending just a break to stretch the legs and a nice ocean view, we were treated to a path that led to an old bridge no longer […]

Blog Upgrade: Subscribe To Comments

Apr 10, 2009 by Chris Dunphy 5 Comments

One of the things that I have always loved about blogging on LiveJournal is that it lets you know via email when someone has replied to any comments or blog posts that you make. This email notification encourages blog postings to turn into actual two-way (or three-way, or more-way) conversations in a way that other blogging platforms have never equalled.

In an attempt to bring some of this sort of interactivity to Tales from Technomadia, I have just installed and configured the Subscribe to Comments WordPress plugin.

Campground Review: Thornhill Broome Beach Campground

Apr 10, 2009 by Chris Dunphy 2 Comments

This campground offers parallel style parking for RVs and/or tent camping right along Route 1, and right along the beach. There are no hook-ups, so RVers should come prepared with a full battery and water tanks (although, there is fresh water available). Sheltered porta-potties are provided. The camping fee was just $15/night, and for us – it was a perfect way to spend sometime along the ocean.

Interviewed by “Travels with Two”

Apr 8, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard Leave a Comment

During our visit with Melanie Waldman in Studio City, not only did we get to interview her about her neighborhood, but we also got interviewed by her about our travels. After all, do we not fit her website’s theme of travels for two? She just published her article this morning, and we think it’s fantastic. […]

Talking with Locals: Studio City

Apr 7, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 2 Comments

Attending the Lonely Planet Blogger Awards in San Francisco led us to meeting Melanie Waldman, the blogger behind the fabulous travel resource for couples Travels With Two. When she found out our next stop was the Los Angeles area, she quickly extended an invite for us to park at her place in an RV friendly […]

Tips to Make Full Time Travel Affordable – Excuse #2

Apr 6, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 21 Comments

People often associate a high price tag with traveling. I think they often take the typical cost of a weeklong vacation and use that as a basis as what it might cost to travel full time.

Talking with Locals: Paramount Studios

Apr 2, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard Leave a Comment

During our brief visit to Los Angeles, we met up with Chris’ cousin, Adam and he gave us a private back lot tour of Paramount Studios. We had a blast hanging out with him and seeing some of the behind-the-scenes in movie making. [geo_mashup_map]
