We hope that wherever you find yourself this Memorial Day weekend, you are surrounded by whatever inspires you – nature, friends, family, good times, wine, solitude. We’re still hanging out in Elkhart with folks still lingering post-Escapade, and took care of some medical errands this past week. It’s been a blast being here, and seems […]

Reflections on the Escapade
On a rather last minute whim, when we left Mitch’s castle we decided to head east instead of west – towards Goshen, IN and the 54th Annual Escapade, the annual rally of the Escapees RV Club. After attending the big FMCA rally down in Perry earlier this year, we had been told to expect quite […]
Postcards from the Road
Last year, for Christmas, I gave my 91 year old grandma an empty book. And no, I was not being a grinch. Technology makes it easy to stay in touch with connected family and friends. I regularly FaceTime with my folks, exchange text messages with old friends, and our blog and Facebook make it easy for […]

Reflections from Seven Years on the Road

Topics covered included cellular options, WiFi, boosting systems, antennas, satellite internet, and figuring out just what […]
Had Fun Storming the Castle
We were contemplating where to head after St. Louis, feeling pulled westward to keep on track for our lighthouse hosting gig in Oregon this fall. And then Chris’ aunt Sherry got in touch, and said she and her boyfriend were back in the area – and they’d love to see us, at his castle. We had […]
A Wonderful Time in St. Louis
Chris has family in St. Louis. And over the years of us stopping in, I’ve just fallen in love with the city. This particular trip back had some goals: Spend time with Chris’ grandma, who had taken quite a spill earlier this year. She’s doing great! Move some boxes from our bus bay that we’ve […]
The Android Army: Sound and Fury, Signifying Not So Much…
A little over a week ago, we threw down the gauntlet – launching our new app ‘US Public Lands’ for Android just days after the iOS version went on sale. We challenged Android fans to prove that there is a viable market out there, asking: So…. Droids…. stand up and be counted, and show us that […]
Following the Mississippi River – Memphis & Columbus
