Life on the Road

What is the Great Loop? What is the AGLCA?

Jul 12, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 4 Comments

In late 2016, we announced we were starting our hunt for a boat with the intentions of pursuing the American Great Loop. It’s an adventure we feel is more akin to ‘RVing on Water’ than setting off circumnavigating the world with epic blue water passages (like our buddies Nikki & Jason Wynn are totally rocking!). […]

Back on the Great Loop – FINALLY Leaving Florida! (Or…Wild Horses Couldn’t Drag Our Anchor?)

Jul 3, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 17 Comments

After a wonderful winter spent on the St. Johns River and in Sanford, we arrived back to Jacksonville so we could bounce over to the RVillage Rally in Live Oak. We returned to The Marina at Ortega Landing (same marina we stayed at back in fall), and came down with ‘conference crud’ that took us […]

Reconnecting with our RVing Roots at RVillage Rally 2.0

Jun 17, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 1 Comment

In galaxy far far away, we once helped launch a social network for RVers called RVillage. It was an ambitious idea pitched to us by Curtis Coleman – imagine being able pull into an RV park, check in on the website and then be able to view the profiles of others parked nearby? You could […]

Our Top 10 Trade-Offs of the Bayliner 4788 Motoryacht

Jun 10, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 12 Comments

We love our boat Y-Not, and we’re very pleased with our lives aboard her for the past two plus years. But every boat (or RV) decision comes with compromises. And we’re often asked what are some of the trade-offs we see with the Bayliner 4788. So, this is that post. These are the things that […]

The RVers – TV Show Update: Coming to the Discovery Channel!

Jun 4, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 16 Comments

Last October we shared with you the exciting news that we signed on to be co-hosts of an upcoming TV show called The RVers, aiming to be broadcast on PBS by the end of 2019. We were over the moon to be asked to contribute by producer Anthony Nalli of FourPoints Television, along with some […]

Leaving Sanford and Cruising Down the St. Johns River

May 30, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 17 Comments

Whew.. lots of recent excitement over adding the Travato to our nomadic fleet this month. But we still have lots of cruising travel stuff to catch you up on to get us to Georgia! So lets do the time warp back to March… Last we left you, we were fighting midges in our beloved Sanford. So […]

Travato Video Tour & Naming our New Camper Van

May 25, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 10 Comments

We’ve been enjoying visiting a local regional park here in Brunswick for some shake-down camping trips in the new Travato. As amazing as our every day life is living on the water or in our RV – it’s still good to break it up. We’ve found getting out in the van feels more like a […]

Introducing our New (to us) 2016 Winnebago Travato 59G Class-B Conversion Van

May 15, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 37 Comments

Last week was an amazing whirlwind of serendipity. And the end result – we are pleased to introduce you to the newest addition to growing fleet of nomadic vessels – a 2016 Winnebago Travato 59G. Why a Van? Earlier this year we shared the start of our search for a Class-B van conversion and the […]

The Midges of Seminole County (Time to Leave Sanford)

May 5, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 18 Comments

Our stay in Sanford was on a whole, amazing. As we shared in our last post, we loved the historic downtown, the marina, the friends we made and the entertainment options. As soon as we extended our stay, we bought tickets to the last showing of The Bridges of Madison County playing at the Theater […]

Oh Sanford – How you Won our Hearts (#sanfording)

Apr 26, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 32 Comments

I know however this post comes out, it’ll never be able to fully convey our amazing stay in Sanford. How do you summarize four months into one post? We get asked all the time ‘what’s your favorite place’ or ‘if you decide to settle down, where would it be?’ After 13-years of full time travel […]
