Just a Bump in the Road

Jun 17, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 45 Comments

We’ve said it over and over again, building a nomadic lifestyle does not get you out of “bad stuff” happening. It still happens. Life on the road is still “life”, and it is not all beautiful sunsets and 50Gbps LTE. Sometimes the unicorns fart rainbows, and sometimes they just plain fart. At the end of […]

Operation: Montana Father’s Day

Jun 16, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 7 Comments

We left our beautiful spot along the Snake Creek near Platte, SD and headed westward. As beautiful as a spot is, we always have to keep in mind that future adventures await us too! Badlands – Not so Bad! First up, our routing change would have us passing through the Badlands of South Dakota, which […]

The Journey Continues Upriver

Jun 11, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 25 Comments

Since we last left you, we’ve continued to follow the Lewis & Clark Trail northward through Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota. And it seems each location we arrive at is better and better. Weston, MO It never really stopped raining on Wednesday when we were leaving Kansas City, and we weren’t too terribly excited […]

The Journey Begins: Following the Lewis & Clark Trail

Jun 5, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 4 Comments

We extended our stay in St. Louis through the weekend so that we could attend a small family reunion in Carondelet Park for a concert in the park. It was great to catch up with family members we don’t see often, and definitely worth sticking around a couple extra days. It was also exciting to […]

Now Available – The Mobile Internet Handbook

Jun 3, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 14 Comments

We are thrilled to announce that our new eBook – The Mobile Internet Handbook, is now available! This started as a blog post overviewing options for us RVing nomads … and it turned into a 26,000 word book. We apparently had a lot of information in our brains to dump, way too much for a […]

Faster than Mold – LTE is Growing!

May 31, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 4 Comments

We recently did a map refresh update for our iOS app Coverage?. If you’re not familiar with our little app yet, it overlays coverage maps from the 4 major cellular carriers, and is intended to help us mobile bandwidth junkies better plan our routes to stay connected. It started as a selfish project to better […]

Chattanooga and St. Louis

May 30, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 23 Comments

We completed our 380 mile driving day from the Savannah area to Chattanooga, and then another 450 mile repositioning into St. Louis last weekend. Time on the road was mostly uneventful, except for a potentially scary encounter in Atworth, GA (just north of Atlanta). Moving from Savannah to Chattanooga We had pulled off I-75 in […]

A Special Road Trip

May 23, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 6 Comments

Nearly 43 years ago, my dad proposed to my mom while sailing around Ledge Lighthouse near Groton, CT – where they met. My father was a submarine sailor, and my mom worked on the sub base at the credit union. My dad was smitten with her immediately and chased her for years, but she wouldn’t […]

Georgia On Our Mind and Under Our Tires

May 21, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 3 Comments

The past couple of weeks have been super busy, and combined with some WordPress attacks that brought our server to a sluggish state – we just haven’t had time to keep up. So we’re taking you back in time to catch up! On Thursday May 9, we decided the time had come to cross out […]

Derailed

May 19, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 6 Comments

So, we’re currently in Groton, Connecticut. Our bus is back near Savannah, GA parked with our dear friends Ann & Elliott – and Kiki is looking after them all. How and why are we here? For about the past week we’ve been on a very purposeful non-bus road trip. It’s been an amazing and emotional […]
