Life on the Road

Back to Boat Life – Our COVID-19 Isolation Cruising Plans & Resources for Fellow Nomads

Mar 19, 2020 by Cherie Ve Ard 13 Comments

What a crazy world we live in these days, and it’s changing faster than any of us can keep up. And while I wished we would wake up to discover we’ve all been tuned into the latest Netflix binge-worthy apocalypse series – it doesn’t seem that’s the case. We’ve been actively tracking COVID-19 since reports […]

Happy 5th Birthday Xscapers / General Quick Update

Mar 10, 2020 by Cherie Ve Ard 5 Comments

It was 5 years ago this week that we attended the 2015 Escapade in Tucson, AZ and helped the Escapees RV Club launch their new club within a club called Xscapers! And wow.. look how far it has come! With over 12,000 members they are hosting monthly convergences, enabling community and providing resources aimed at […]

Traveling with a Bus & Van: Convoying Two RVs

Feb 13, 2020 by Cherie Ve Ard 7 Comments

One of the most frequent questions we’ve gotten since we traded in our MINI Cooper for a Class-B Winnebago Travato van conversion was – do we flat tow the van behind our motorhome? And nope, the Dodge ProMaster chassis is not flat towable. And our bus conversion really isn’t meant for towing much of anything […]

Xscapers Annual Bash 2020 & New Years Eve Blowout – What a Way to Start the Decade!

Jan 25, 2020 by Cherie Ve Ard 6 Comments

Have you ever had a vision and then came back 4 years later and realized – you totally found the exact right people to share that vision with? I’m not sure I’m ever going to be able to adequately convey just what the past 3 weeks has meant to us as we have re-immersed ourselves […]

Lessons Learned After Long Term RV Storage – Getting Zephyr Back on the Road

Jan 8, 2020 by Cherie Ve Ard 24 Comments

We stored our RV for nearly 1.5 years, and learned a lot. In early 2018 we drove our bus to Texas to attend & speak at the RV Entrepreneur Summit. We had tried and tried to get a spot at the co-op park in Benson by then so we could then just proceed to Arizona […]

A Month Docked in Downtown Charleston, SC

Dec 11, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 5 Comments

Ok.. time to do the time warp again as we get caught up on past due travelogues. This time, we’re taking you back to July. When the temperatures were spiking into the 100s and we decided to take out a sweet monthly spot in a marina right smack dab downtown in the awesome city of […]

We Have Arrived to Benson to our Lot at SKP Saguaro (And a ‘Please Don’t Drop By Unannounced’ Reminder)

Dec 5, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 10 Comments

We have arrived to our winter basecamp in Benson, AZ – to the lot we are leaseholders at in the SKP Saguaro Co-Op Park. The bus and van convoy was a smooth 800 mile drive that we did over 3-days, and it was much more enjoyable than either of us anticipated. The bus drove like […]

Happy Thanksgiving (And a Quick Update)

Nov 28, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 16 Comments

Our biggest reason for posting today is wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving! We are so blessed to be able to live an abundant life on the road, and we’re so grateful that you choose to spend a little bit of your time joining in virtually and being part of our community. Quick Catch Up […]

Watching The RVers’ TV Show as an RVer: No Cable? No Satellite? – No Problem!

Nov 6, 2019 by Chris Dunphy 14 Comments

In case you haven’t heard – we are co-hosts of the upcoming TV series ‘The RVers‘, premiering on Discovery Channel on November 17th at 8AM eastern. We are going to be on TV! But… we’ve been full time travelers for over 13 years now, and “cord cutters” even before then. Just what IS this TV thing?! […]

Travato Van Mods for Living & Working on the Road – 3 Month Full Time Update

Oct 28, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 20 Comments

It’s hard to believe – we have been in our 2016 Winnebago Travato 59G for nearly 3 months as our home base. It all started with wanting to be with my mom back in early August for her surgery and then evacuating for Hurricane Dorian. Since the boat was already hauled out, we decided to […]
