Our 12 Favorite Campsites of 2014

Dec 20, 2014 by Cherie Ve Ard 23 Comments

This year, we stayed in 70 different locations (yes, I counted.). And pretty much every single one of them had something special about them worth remarking on. When we sat down this year to pick our favorites, it was brutally difficult. Each spot we stopped at brings back a special memory. People we were visiting or traveling […]

Ramblings: Tales from Nomads – Video Interview with Liv2RV

Dec 17, 2014 by Cherie Ve Ard 12 Comments

Meet Dan & Jonell Dan and Jonell were both approaching 50 and sat down with their financial advisor and learned they were on track to retire in their late 60s. After a career working in a trauma center, Jonell knew all too well that life is too short to wait that long to put off their dreams. […]

Soaking in the Desert

Dec 15, 2014 by Cherie Ve Ard 10 Comments

We’re wrapping up our extended stay in Desert Hot Springs at Sam’s Family Spa, and will soon be moving on. And it’s been a marvelous nearly month here. At $540 for a monthly spot (plus electric), it’s absolutely indulgent. Compared to the weekly and daily rates, it’s quite a deal and we don’t feel bad […]

RV Home Improvement Time

Dec 10, 2014 by Cherie Ve Ard 24 Comments

In our hyper-mobile periods of travel, we’re generally changing up our location every few days and ‘on our way’ somewhere. We love those times. The constant discovery of new locations, new scenery, new climates, new friends and new hikes. We’re roaming, moving a couple hours between each stop at most, making miles and balancing life […]

3 Tips for RVing & Camping with Humans

Dec 8, 2014 by Kiki 30 Comments

Six years ago today, Cherie & Chris stopped by for a visit to a little farm in Oregon. I was 7 weeks old then and I kinda liked them. So I told them that I now own them. Little did I know what I was getting myself into. You see, these humans I decided to […]

Solar Planning: Conducting An RV Electrical Consumption Audit

Dec 5, 2014 by Chris Dunphy 34 Comments

We get asked all the time: “How much solar power do I need?” But when I reply with – “Well, how much power do you use in a day?”, I almost always get a blank stare in response. We encounter only a handful of RVers who have any idea of just how much power various electrical devices […]

Keeping It Clean in Desert Hot Springs

Dec 1, 2014 by Cherie Ve Ard 18 Comments

As much as we love being in motion, constantly changing our location and adventures – we also look forward to our extended stays of a few weeks in one location. When we arrived to Desert Hot Springs a little over a week ago, we had a long list of projects we wanted to tackle. Amongst […]

Birthday Week on the Road (an Untraditional Nomadic Thanksgiving)

Nov 28, 2014 by Cherie Ve Ard 15 Comments

For the past many years, Chris and I have headed back east for holidays with the family. While we love our families, and spending time with them – we wanted to experience a different winter  and decided to stick around the desert southwest this year. We’ve been caravanning with our WheelingIt buddies the past month, and discovered that both […]

RVing Resources from Technomadia

Nov 26, 2014 by Cherie Ve Ard 14 Comments

  We’ve been blogging ever since we hit the road together. We consider Technomadia.com to be our personal space and it started as a continuation of our blogs we were both keeping when we met. It was a place to share our travel stories with friends and family, and mainly keep the parents from calling every […]

Wrapping up Highway 395 – Lone Pine and Trona Pinnacles

Nov 24, 2014 by Cherie Ve Ard 28 Comments

We quite reluctantly left our awesome boondocking spot overlooking Bishop, CA. We could have easily enjoyed a few more days perched there, but cooler weather was keeping us reminded that we needed to keep pace heading south. Paul had an Instagram friend waiting to meet up with us all in Lone Pine at the Tuttle […]
