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 […]
Life on the Road
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
Seven years ago today, after several weeks of hectic preparations – Chris and I set off together as full time technomads. I consider May 10 to be my personal ‘Nomadiversary’. He had already been on the road for a bit over a year solo, although we spent a lot of that at my Florida home together, […]
Help us make ‘The Mobile Internet Handbook’ 2nd Edition Awesome!
About this time last year, we decided it would be nifty to put all of our mobile internet related posts in one place – creating a central spot for all of this stuff that we get asked about so frequently. Topics covered included cellular options, WiFi, boosting systems, antennas, satellite internet, and figuring out just what […]
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
We were on our way to Memphis to rendezvous with our friends Kristin & Jason when we had our ‘brake-down’. Chilling in Memphis After getting back on the road nearly 24-hours later, we made the final two hour drive and happily parked next to our neighbors who assisted in our rescue! While we had big […]
An Unexpected Brake-Down
Our last travelogue post ended on a bit of a cliffhanger. We started the morning off in Hohenwald, TN driving south on the beautiful Natchez Trace for a few miles, and we then headed westward on Highway 64 towards Memphis to rendezvous with our dear friends Kristin & Jason, who we hadn’t seen since our […]
‘US Public Lands’ Now Available for Android too!
Whenever we post about any of our mobile applications, especially our app ‘Coverage?‘, we end up getting flooded with “what about Android?” requests. Sometimes the Android fans are pretty pushy – saying things like “Don’t you know that Android is the bulk of the market now?!?!” There may technically be more Droid users – but […]
