Bus Renovation Progress Report #3: Roller Coaster Week – August 22-27

Aug 28, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 20 Comments

Our first week back on site in Elkhart, went pretty well. Our second week however, was a bit more of a roller coaster. Despite some set backs and continued delays, in the end lots of progress was made – and we’re happy to report, that Zephyr is currently back in the paint booth getting prepped! […]

Take the RVer Census – Let Your Voice Be Heard!

Aug 25, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 17 Comments

We’ve long felt that data on today’s RVers could be critical information to have when designing services, approaching companies or fighting unjust legal rulings. Knowing how many of us there are out here, and some of our basic demographics can shape so many things. Especially as the demographics of RVers is so rapidly changing with […]

Bus Renovation Progress Report #2: Week of August 17

Aug 22, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 27 Comments

Earlier this week we relocated back to Elkhart, IN to Master Tech RV to be onsite to keep on top of all of the projects ongoing with our bus renovations. We are incredibly thankful that a kind local supporter has loaned us their RV so that we have a place to live on site and have a comfortable […]

5 Reasons We Continue to Love Full Time RVing

Aug 21, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 31 Comments

Taking a break from RVing every so often gives us great perspective for why we keep coming back to it as our primary living style. And why we’re investing so much into making our bus even more OUR bus. Every time we think we’re ready to hang up the keys and try something different – […]

Bus Renovation Progress Report: A Riveting Tale of Why We’re Way Behind Schedule

Aug 14, 2015 by Technomadia 109 Comments

We’ve been giving mini-updates in our Alaskan travelogues about the progress on the bus projects going on back in Elkhart. But it’s time to catch you all up on the full story. We had a grand plan for the summer of 2015 – we plotted to leave our bus at a shop we thought we could […]

A Quiet Intermission in St. Louis

Aug 11, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 17 Comments

First of all, I am so humbled by all of the amazing comments and shared stories on my introspective post over the weekend about giving yourself permission to live life on your terms. It’s always a bit vulnerable feeling to open up like that, and I’m so glad I did. So thank you for that. […]

You Deserve More than a 1-Week Vacation

Aug 9, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 65 Comments

The very first time I planned a 10-day semi-vacation away from my home office, my business partner just about flipped out. ‘No one takes 10-day vacations! I’ve never taken more than a week at a time!’ That was back in 2002, I was in my late 20s and I was off to the big island of […]

The Alaska 2015 Adventure Wrap-Up

Aug 4, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 21 Comments

We’re back from our amazing 7-week adventure to and from Alaska by rail, cruise, boats, buses, raft, dog sled (kinda), RVs (not ours) and plane. Not that 16 minutes can fully tell the tales of 7 weeks, but we’ve put together some video highlights to share a slice of the breathtaking beauty of Alaska. It includes video […]

Phase 8 – Alaskan 2015 Adventure: Storybrooke, Vancouver & Seattle

Jul 30, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 2 Comments

Alas, we have come to the final chapter in this mini break from RVing – our summer 2015 Alaskan adventure. And what an adventure it’s been! On our way to Alaska we had way too short of visits in Seattle and Vancouver, so with the bus projects not looking likely to be finished early – we were […]

TV & Movie Viewing Options for RVers

Jul 28, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 27 Comments

While we do enjoy getting out exploring our new locales, hiking in nature, visiting with friends – this RVing lifestyle for us, is about balance. There’s no shame in enjoying watching television or a good flick. This is life on the road, not a vacation. We are RVing, not just camping and spending all our […]
