Wishing you and yours a joyous holiday season! For the first time in a few years, we are spending the holidays at home – instead of traveling off to visit family. We’ve been enjoying getting into the holiday spirit here in Sanford – attending holiday festivities, time with friends, hanging with our dock-mates and hosting […]
Life on the Road
How Much Does It Cost to Stay in Marinas?
When you share your life online, one of the most common questions you’ll get is ‘How Much Does It Cost?’. One of the top questions we got when ramping up to cruise after over a decade of RVing was – how would the costs differ? Now that we’ve got nearly 2 years under our hull […]
Letting Serendipity Do the Steering (We’re Staying on the Boat This Winter)
One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned over our years of perpetual travel is to trust. Trust that things will work out. Even when you think you have a plan, look at it as setting intentions and be open to shifts. The past month has been a reminder of that. Our ‘plans’ going forward have […]
”By All Rights, That Engine Should Start” – Suzuki DF15A Outboard & Customer Service Failure
Our first stop after leaving Jacksonville to cruise up the St. Johns River was Doctors Lake – only 12 nautical miles up stream. We figured this would be a good short first hop to get back into the groove of living on the water, and we had heard that you could dinghy ashore at Whitey’s […]

Two Months in Jacksonville – Getting our City On, Boat Projects, Social Life
We pulled into the Marina at Ortega Landing in Jacksonville in mid-August with a one week reservation. And ended up staying two months. We’re pretty sure by now you’re no longer surprised by these extended stays. A couple weeks of active cruising followed by a month or two still is suiting us quite right these […]
Wrap Up: Great Loop 2018 Cruising Season – Florida’s ICW
With our arrival to Jacksonville, we consider this 2018 Great Loop cruising season to be a wrap. When we set off from Miami in April, we had intentions of making it to the Chesapeake by summer to escape hurricane season. But fatigue from the months prior building up from Hurricane Irma, the submerged channel marker […]
Announcement: Technomadia to Host ‘The RVers’ TV Show on PBS!!
Over the years, we’ve been approached by many documentaries, realities shows and film projects to share about our nomadic lifestyle. We turn most of them down – it’s just not our thing to have a film crew following us around long term or acting out an experience. We share a slice of our lives because […]
Rendezvous in Jacksonville – Tides & Currents and a Rescue!
We could have easily stayed in St. Augustine on our mooring ball a few more days.. perhaps even weeks. But we had an exciting rendezvous planned up in Jacksonville with dear friends. So.. we untied from the ball and continued our northward cruise. First, our video recap of this segment: First Stop: Pine Island Anchorage […]
Feeding a Cat on the Road (Robotic Wi-Fi Controlled Food Dispenser!)
Hi guys.. it’s been a while since I’ve written a blog post. But I wanted to introduce you to my new best friend – I call him ‘Robot’. I like food. I like it a lot. When we got our bus back in 2011, my people bought me an automatic food dispenser called the PetMate […]
