Serendipity Beckons us to the Islands, mon

Sep 25, 2010 by Cherie Ve Ard 29 Comments

72 Hours ago, we had never heard of the island of St. John.  And now..  it’ll be our home for 5 months this winter. We’ve both been craving some major change. Our full time RVing around the US has become a bit.. routine.  Hard to imagine that constant mobility can start to seem stationary, but […]

An Epic Camp Nomadia 2010

Sep 11, 2010 by Cherie Ve Ard 7 Comments

I’m still buzzing off the energy of Burning Man, and particularly our theme camp, Camp Nomadia. When we first had the vision for hosting the camp in 2008, we imagined a community of full time travelers all converging in one spot to share community, but not infrastructure. After all, us full time travelers are used […]

How to Keep Connected to the Internet While Traveling Full Time – Excuse #14

Sep 10, 2010 by Chris Dunphy 27 Comments

Note: This post originally written on 9/10/2010 and updated on 9/20/2011 to reflect current information. One of the most common things we get asked about is for advice on staying connected to the net while on the road. Worrying about a lack of usable connectivity is an excuse that holds many people back from a […]

Travelogue: St. Louis, MO to Black Rock City, NV

Sep 9, 2010 by Cherie Ve Ard 1 Comment

Time Frame: August 2 – 28, 2010 Miles Driven: 2825 After a way too brief of a stop in St. Louis, it was time to continue west towards Burning Man. It seems every year we find ourselves in this predicament – way too little time to traverse some of the most beautiful scenery our country […]

Burning Man Pictorial – Day 8

Sep 7, 2010 by Cherie Ve Ard 3 Comments

The last official day of Burning Man. At 3pm, if you’re in Center Camp – you’re told Burning Man is officially closed and to go home, or start helping with clean up efforts. The city is clearing out – there is more open space around you, and you can see the banks of porta-potties across […]

Burning Man Pictorial – Day 7

Sep 6, 2010 by Cherie Ve Ard 2 Comments

Sunday. The day of the Temple Burn. For many folks, they come to Burning Man to see The Man burn, which happens Saturday night. It’s the big focal event of the week. The iconic structure that has been our beacon for the week is burned in a huge celebration of fireworks, dancing, art cars and […]

Burning Man Pictorial – Day 6

Sep 5, 2010 by Cherie Ve Ard 7 Comments

There’s only one photo that needs to be shared on burn day.. It was an extremely windy and dusty evening, this photo pretty much sums up of the quick flash burn nature of last night. Post burn, many of our campmates returned to Camp Nomadia, and we had a spontaneous dance party to celebrate together.

Burning Man Pictorial – Day 5

Sep 4, 2010 by Cherie Ve Ard Leave a Comment

Friday was another awesome day of our Camp Nomadia community coming together. Having a camp with a central hang out area, creates an environment where people can connect and feel they have some place to come home to. Burning Man is full of exciting, awesome and overwhelming things to see, do and experience. And sometimes, […]

Burning Man Pictorial – Day 4

Sep 3, 2010 by Cherie Ve Ard 7 Comments

Wow? It’s already Thursday?  Where does the time go.  No matter what your intentions are for Burning Man – attending events, seeing art projects or meeting up with friends, it’s about this time of the week where it’s easy to feel the pressure of time slipping away. Today was our big day of hosting a […]

The “Time Frame” at Burning Man 2010

Sep 2, 2010 by Chris Dunphy 2 Comments

This year for Burning Man I pitched an art project idea to the Center Camp Cafe art team, and was accepted! My project is called “Time Frame”. The “Time Frame” is a classic antique table-top mirror, with the mirror removed, mounted on top of a 5 foot tall self-supporting pole. Looking through the frame gives […]
