In our hyper-mobile periods of travel, we’re generally changing up our location every few days and ‘on our way’ somewhere. We love those times. The constant discovery of new locations, new scenery, new climates, new friends and new hikes. We’re roaming, moving a couple hours between each stop at most, making miles and balancing life […]

Birthday Week on the Road (an Untraditional Nomadic Thanksgiving)
For the past many years, Chris and I have headed back east for holidays with the family. While we love our families, and spending time with them – we wanted to experience a different winter and decided to stick around the desert southwest this year. We’ve been caravanning with our WheelingIt buddies the past month, and discovered that both […]
Working 9 to 5 (So instead – Links to helpful posts!)
That’s 9a – 5a, by the way. We’re working around the clock, quite literally, on the re-write of The Mobile Internet Handbook. When we’re working on a project as intense as this together, we work in shifts. Cherie gets to work around 9am and works into the early afternoon. Chris gets up, and we get […]
Three Years in a Vintage Bus
Has it really been three years already?!? It seems like just yesterday we were roaming around the country on a month long Amtrak pass searching for a vintage bus to become our next home on wheels. After 4 years of traveling in smaller travel trailers and having just spent a winter living in the US Virgin Islands, […]
Shopping for RV Seats in Elkhart, IN – Our Flexsteel 517 Seats, Peeling Haloleather & Replacement
When you own a bus, or well, any home actually – there’s always a to-do list a mile long of potential future projects. Our lovely Zephyr is no exception. We bought her almost 3 years ago for a song, but knowing full well that it would unending upgrade projects. So when we have access to […]
So.. what’s up with the Hula Hoop?
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 […]
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 […]
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, […]
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 […]
Following the Mississippi River – Memphis & Columbus

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 […]
