Wow – today marks a DECADE since I set off solo in a minuscule Tab trailer, hitting the road full time. I left behind a somewhat conventional life thriving in the madness of Silicon Valley and San Francisco, heading out into the unknown to technomadically make my way in the world. I was downsizing from a stunning […]

Eastward Bound: Fontainebleau State Park – Mandeville, LA
Our next stop along our eastward repositioning into Florida was actually one planned in a bit in advance. We had been keeping in touch with our dear friends Forrest & Mary who wintered in Florida this year. They’d be on their way to volunteer at the CARE continued assistance facility at the Escapee’s Rainbow Park […]
Eastward Bound: Martin Dies, Jr. State Park – Jasper, TX
As we were plotting our continued repositioning east from Austin, we were keeping a close watch on weather ahead. Massive rain storms had hit much of East Texas and Louisiana, and road closures were predicted. We had also had several readers advise avoiding I-10 between Houston and Lafayette due to lousy road conditions in general. […]
Eastward Bound: Stop in the Austin Area
Last we checked in on the eastward repositioning, we had just left Seminole Canyon State Park near Del Rio, TX. Austin is what I consider my home town, where I grew up. Since my brother still lives there, it’s a frequent place we route through when crossing the country. Austin is also attracts amazing people, which […]
Can You Stay in 55+ RV Parks if You’re Under 55?
Even us road veterans are constantly learning new things. Today, I wanted to share with you something that we were never clear on and had to dig deeper to understand. I want to be very upfront here… I’m not posting this to make an argument if this is right or wrong, or to start a political debate (and […]

So I thought I’d share with you today how our intentions ahead are looking. Early April: Time with family & friends in Central Florida. The main timing influencing […]
Eastward Bound: Seminole Canyon State Park – Comstock, TX
We don’t often think too far ahead in our routing, we prefer planning things a day at a time. On this particular repositioning, we know we need to keep ‘heading east’ and we’ll likely eventually make it to Florida. (You do start to learn these complex navigational things after so many years on the road.) We […]
Happy Birthday Xscapers & RVillage (and our Book too!)
March seems to be a birth month of amazing projects in the RVing community. Today we wanted to take a moment and honor two of them we were blessed to be involved with. Happy First Birthday, Xscapers! A year ago today, we were in Tucson, AZ hanging out with the Escapee’s staff – all nervously […]
Eastward Bound: A Visit to Davis Mountains State Park
Last we checked in, we had just left Arizona to start our eastward trek to Florida. We’ve done this cross country repositioning many times over the years, and are always looking for new-to-us routes across the great state of Texas. One place we’ve never been is Big Bend, and we really had it in our […]
