Oliver Travel Trailer (July 2008 - May 2011)

Salvation Mountain at Slab City – Leonard Knight’s Message of Love

Nov 23, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 5 Comments

Some people have a calling, a message they must deliver to the world. Most never act on this. But a rare few are overcome with purpose, and devote their lives to the call. Artist Leonard Knight heard such a call (“to my knowledge, it was on a Wednesday, about ten-thirty in the morning in 1967”), […]

Farewell Jeep, Hello Tundra

Nov 15, 2009 by Chris Dunphy 13 Comments

I’ve been a Jeep Liberty fan for as long as I’ve been nomadic. When I first started living on the road in April 2006, I traded my beloved Toyota Prius with a friend for her 2002 Jeep Liberty. Her Jeep was the perfect match for the small Tab Trailer that I had set up to […]

Road Ahead: Fall & Winter 2009

Nov 7, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 4 Comments

We’ve been hanging out in Southern California without much of a plan on which direction will be next. Things are finally began to gel once we made it a priority to spend holidays with family this year – which means heading eastward! Our projected nomadic path forward might look something like this: Tomorrow – Depart […]

Never having to pack

Oct 27, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 5 Comments

One of the advantages of traveling with your house, is that you generally never have to pack.  Most full time RVers have painstakingly considered every single item they travel with for its use, space and functionality.  Everything they think they could need is quite literally within an arm’s reach. When packing for a vacation or […]

Travelogue: Burning Man to Hemet, CA

Oct 24, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 1 Comment

Time Period: September 6 – October 24 Miles Driven: 1179 (not including non-RV trips) Post Burning Man we only had one specific goal – to make it to Hemet, CA for much needed down time. We had met some folks in the area during our travels earlier in the year that we only had the […]

Temporary Neighbors, Not Guests

Oct 11, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 9 Comments

Some people travel primarily to spend time visiting cool places. And we absolutely do love finding amazing campgrounds, quirky small towns, wonderful boondocking spots, stealth city camping, incredible scenic overlooks, and the thrill of visiting National Parks. But much of our nomadic lifestyle is motivated less by visiting cool places, and more by visiting cool […]

Road Ahead: Fall 2009

Sep 17, 2009 by Cherie Ve Ard 3 Comments

Now that Burning Man is back in storage in Sacramento, we start to look forward.  Thus far, we have only planned through the next couple of weeks. now – this weekend: At some point, we’ll meander to San Francisco for a quarterly All Night Dance Celebration with our Rhythm Society Community Sept 21 -30: We’l […]

Connected at Burning Man

Sep 15, 2009 by Chris Dunphy 6 Comments

If you looked hard enough, for years now there have been options for communicating with the outside world at Burning Man via internet or satellite phone. (Not to mention via the exaggeratedly disgruntled Black Rock City Post Office…) For as long as 802.11 has existed, some geeks have enjoyed the challenge of building a public […]

Jeep Brain Madness

Sep 15, 2009 by Chris Dunphy 1 Comment

Yesterday we stopped for lunch in Susanville, CA on our way towards Sacramento. When we started off again, our 2006 Jeep Liberty CRD began acting weird. Every few minutes there would be a ding, and the ESP/BAS, traction control, and ABS yellow error lights on the dash would turn on. Within an instant, they would […]
