Un-Cutting the Cord

Apr 1, 2013 by Chris Dunphy 14 Comments

Today is my seventh Nomadiversary – seven years since I cut the cord and left traditional fixed-location life behind. Over the years, I’ve often been asked “Why?” – what inspired me to hit the road to head out to see the world with only a ridiculously small Tab Clamshell and a little Jeep Liberty to […]

Millenicom: We’re All In This Together

Mar 30, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 77 Comments

After a week of playing phone and e-mail tag, on Friday we had a very positive talk with the owner of Millenicom in response to our Beware of the Overages of March post. Dennis Castle had pro-actively reached out to us within hours of the post going live, taking the post and the issues raised […]

Spring is for Abundance

Mar 29, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 1 Comment

After nearly 7 years on the road, and generally living in fairly extreme conservation of resources  – our current situation is feeling pretty darn abundant. We have 50amps of power, all the water we can suck through a hose connection, easy sewer access for dumping the tanks, ample cellular signal (but of course not bandwidth) […]

Beware the Overages of March

Mar 22, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 82 Comments

Ever since Brutus killed Ceasar, the middle of March has been an ominous time of year. Our Story of Bandwidth Betrayal We love our Millenicom 20GB 3G/4G Hotspot Plan (which uses Verizon’s unrivaled LTE network), but at LTE speeds – 20GB can go pretty darned fast. And this is the biggest downside of life with blazing fast […]

Hanging In There

Mar 16, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 26 Comments

We’ve now been back in Melbourne, FL for nearly 3 weeks. Wow, the time goes by so quickly.  We’ve been non-stop busy ever since we landed, and have little time for much else than the highest of priorities. The highest priority has been of course my father. We spend a good portion of our time […]

Realities of Living & Traveling in a RV Full Time

Mar 11, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 33 Comments

We’ve known Pace & Kyeli for a few years now, and when they came to us this past summer with their latest idea to sell most their stuff, buy an RV and hit the road – we were supportive of their enthusiasm while trying our best to set their expectations to realistic. After just five […]

Our iPhone & iPad App Essentials for RV Travel

Mar 6, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 23 Comments

As Technomads, it should be no surprise that we are mobile technology lovers. We love our iPhones and iPads, and find them to be perfect companions for our full time travels. There is something magical about having the Internet in your pocket, a world’s worth of maps on your lap, email and messaging always with […]

Cedar Key Sunsets & SerenDIPity!

Mar 1, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 2 Comments

After posting so many amazing Cedar Key Sunset photos, we were flattered to get some requests to offer prints, calendars, etc. for sale. After some poking around, we found Zazzle – an online store that allows us to make custom products available for one-off printing.  They provide the storefront, handle the payments & printing & […]

Tin Can Touring

Feb 26, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 9 Comments

Wanting to be somewhere that felt more like being in nature after our overpriced RV ‘resort’ stay in Spring Hill – we were able to snag 2 nights at nearby Hillsborough River State Park (click for our review on RVParking.com) just south of Zephyrhills, Florida. This turned out to be a fabulous decision!  We had […]

Spring Hill Wrap-up

Feb 19, 2013 by Cherie Ve Ard 8 Comments

After Cedar Key, our next stop was to get some quality time in with Chris’ folks who winter just down the road in Spring Hill. I know that once we get to Melbourne to be near my parents, that we’ll likely not have much time for getting a visit in with them before they return […]
