Two of my favorite things about RVing are: In addition to our location changing constantly, we get to mix up the types of places we stay at. Meeting and connecting with amazing people. And thankfully, we constantly get to bask in the glow of these awesome side effects of a RVing life. Our next segment […]
Life on the Road
Meet my new Friend!
I was way too busy at Cape Blanco to blog. That place is a cat’s dream come true. As soon as we pulled in a shrew literally landed in my mouth! And the fun never stopped. Bunny rabbits, mices, birds and more all came to visit me! Lots of grass and bushes to play in. […]
Winning the Storage War!
Storage units are like security blankets for baby nomads. So many of us head out on the road with the core bits of our former stationary life crammed into a big “climate controlled” box somewhere, ready and waiting just in case nomadic life doesn’t work out. For others, it is more about punting – putting […]
Cedar Key – Here we Come!
Once we get through the storage unit purge this week, we’ll be starting a cross country repositioning with a destination of Cedar Key, Florida by Christmas! Yup, we’re returning to our waterfront spot in that chill place of gorgeous sunsets. And yes, yet again, there’ll be a bit of a convergence of fellow full timing […]
Change Your Office View: Full Time RVing Workspaces
A couple weeks ago a reader chatted us up and asked if we had any resources about workspaces other RVers have created. Our immediate thought was… what a great idea for a series! So off I went to poke some fellow working-on-the-road RVers for photos of their workspaces to start creating a new little corner […]
Goodbye Cape Blanco – Hello Sacramento!
With our extension at the lighthouse coming to an end, and the reality of the cross country drive to Florida by the end of the year settling in – it was time to plot our escape and get on with the next adventure of clearing out Chris’ storage unit in Sacramento. We left Cape Blano […]
Lighthouses Guide More Than Ships
There have been few experiences so far in our nomadic journey where we leave already having set an intention to return someday. And yet – we have already signed up to return as hosts at Cape Blanco next year. I’ve been giving a lot of thought as to why I felt so connected and so […]
Failure Analysis: Did a Baldwin PA2721 Filter Failure Kill our 8V71 Engine?
The story of our summer was our major breakdown in remote Montana, and the subsequent full engine rebuild we carried out at Interstate PowerSystems in Billings, MT. The question we have been asked a million times since we first posted about the breakdown has been – “just what went wrong?” The symptoms defied a clear […]
Tips and Tricks for a Versatile RVing Wardrobe
More than likely, your RV is going to have less storage space than you had in your more traditional home. Assembling a versatile wardrobe to take on the road is part of almost every nomad’s journey. This was a tough one for me. Before I hit the road I had a huge dresser, a huge […]
This Could Be Your Office
Update: Wow! The power of the blog… reinforcements have already shown up and looks there will be plenty of help out here for the month! Thank you! We went to our orientation yesterday for our October Cape Blanco volunteer gig. It seems two, not one, couples cancelled last minute on their commitments for October. […]
