Up Up and Away!

Oct 4, 2011 by Cherie Ve Ard 2 Comments

It’s only been a few days since we left St. George with intentions of heading eastward through Colorado. I write this from Amarillo, TX. Which you might notice was NOT on our intended route. So what happened? A Lot of Air Pressure Leaks As we were leaving Lake Powell, we heard a sudden WOOOSH of […]

Bus Projects: Dual Desk & Air Filters

Sep 28, 2011 by Cherie Ve Ard 11 Comments

We feel satiated after completing a lot of projects while at St. George RV Resort. Interior Remodeling The manager of the park introduced us to their new woodworking skilled maintenance man to see about building our dual desk unit. We didn’t think it’d be possible to build something quick enough for us to get back […]

So We Meet Again..

Sep 23, 2011 by Cherie Ve Ard 10 Comments

I’ve often wrote about community while on the road, and how I’ve had to adjust my expectations of it in order to appreciate the variability that happens while traveling full time.  One of the greatest blessings has been connecting with other full time travelers that we get to rendezvous with in all sorts of locations. […]

10 Tips to Keep Connected: US Mobile Internet Options

Sep 21, 2011 by Cherie Ve Ard 17 Comments

One of the most common things we get asked about is for advice on staying connected to the net while on the road. For us, staying connected to the internet is essential to our mobile livelyhood. Our business depends on it and we heavily utilize social networking online to keep connected with friends, family and […]

Resorting to Indulgence

Sep 18, 2011 by Cherie Ve Ard 16 Comments

For past several years of RVing around the USA, we generally steered away from staying at RV Resorts and commercial campgrounds.  We instead favored boondocking, public campgrounds and staying with friends.  In our first year traveling in our small 16′ T@B travel trailer, we only paid for camping a few nights in total.  And in […]

Rites of Passage

Sep 10, 2011 by Cherie Ve Ard 16 Comments

We left Burning Man in 2010 for the first time without a plan one way or the other if we would be attending in 2011.  We left that decision up to serendipity. But we did know one thing – if we attended, we wanted a year off of hosting our theme camp, Camp Nomadia, and […]

Lithium Ion Battery Success!! Playa Bound

Aug 27, 2011 by Cherie Ve Ard 11 Comments

There is nothing like hearing your air conditioner turn on via battery power!  Not that it’s any different of a sound. So let’s back up a few days, and cover the journey since we left Phoenix – where we built our own lithium ion battery bank. Building our bank was lots of fun, but it […]

We Built a Lithium Ion Battery Bank!

Aug 20, 2011 by Cherie Ve Ard 17 Comments

After another all-nighter lithium ion battery research session last Tuesday, we slept in on Wednesday and then made our way down the hill from Flagstaff into Phoenix. With every foot of elevation drop, the temperature increased and we were soon reminded of why we escaped to Flagstaff in the first place. The bus did incredibly […]

Inverted Intentions

Aug 17, 2011 by Cherie Ve Ard 19 Comments

Two weeks ago we finally escaped the intense Arizona desert heat in Lake Havasu City, and headed to nearby Flagstaff. Sitting at elevation 7000 ft, it’s many degrees cooler and has things that are green. We came here intending to cool off – both our bodies and on the bus projects. We were also tempted […]

Video, App and Burn

Aug 12, 2011 by Cherie Ve Ard 7 Comments

The following post will be nothing new for those who have been following along with our daily updates on Facebook.  It’s just a wrap up of some announcements we’ve made this week. Updated Bus Video Tour I have updated our video bus tour to include footage of some of the recent updates.  It’s amazing to […]
