Our RV, Van & Boat Mobile Internet Setup – 19 Years of Keeping Online (Updated: December 2025)

Feb 19, 2019 by Cherie Ve Ard 29 Comments

When we first hit the road in 2006 to travel full-time, being able to work remotely utilizing mobile internet was absolutely essential in pursuing our nomadic dreams. We started off in a super tiny travel trailer, we were working remotely as software developers and technology consultants. While we were self employed, at the time we […]

Feeding a Cat on the Road (Robotic Wi-Fi Controlled Food Dispenser!)

Oct 6, 2018 by Kiki 6 Comments

Hi guys.. it’s been a while since I’ve written a blog post. But I wanted to introduce you to my new best friend – I call him ‘Robot’. I like food. I like it a lot. When we got our bus back in 2011, my people bought me an automatic food dispenser called the PetMate […]

We’re making our way south after our extended stay in Fort Myers towards the Florida Keys. The upcoming route will have us cruising through the Everglades, with some reported amazing anchorages along the way. The problem however is that cellular connectivity is likely to be a challenge. Our app Coverage? shows Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint […]

Upgrading Y-Not: Boat Project Planning (Lithium, Solar, Marine Electronics, and More!)

Jul 17, 2017 by Chris Dunphy 16 Comments

Boat’s are all about projects. Whether it is fixing things, upgrading things, modifying things, or the ever constant need to maintain things – the project list on a boat is perpetually long, and seemingly endless. Particularly as new boat owners – we have a nearly overwhelming list of things that we would like to tackle […]

Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) for RVs – Why the EEZTIRE is Our Choice

Jul 9, 2017 by Cherie Ve Ard 14 Comments

We feel a TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) is an important piece of safety equipment to have for anyone on the road. With these systems, you install pressure monitoring sensors on each air valve of your tires (ideally including your RV tow-behind), and these sensors transmit pressure & temperature information to a central display screen you keep […]

Crappy RV or Boat Mattress?? Tips for a Great Night’s Sleep!

Jun 26, 2017 by Cherie Ve Ard 7 Comments

Our RV and our boat are our homes, where we lay our heads down to sleep every night. But so many come with, shall we say, crappy mattresses. Meant more for weekend excursions than everyday living. But you don’t have to put up with it.  There’s nothing that says you have to sacrifice a good […]

Tour of our RV Office – Computer Monitors and Rolling Chairs in Motion

Feb 8, 2017 by Cherie Ve Ard 18 Comments

Life on the road is awesome. We’re so blessed to work and travel, so that we didn’t have to wait for retirement to enjoy this lifestyle. Comfortable working space for two geeks who work online however isn’t a built in feature of most RVs. One of the reasons we sought out a bus conversion was for the […]

Step Into our RV Kitchen for a Tour while we Prep Dinner

Nov 8, 2016 by Cherie Ve Ard 27 Comments

We’ve had several requests to do a ‘RV Cooking Show’. We’ve been hesitate to share about our cooking – while we can occasionally make a tasty meal, we really don’t consider ourselves chefs or foodies. What could we possibly impart upon others? The other evening we were already planning to make chicken fajitas, one of […]

Hot Beverages, Climate Control, Flag Pole & Toys!

Oct 19, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 16 Comments

Our renovation projects over the summer were pretty massive, and we shared an overview of the bigger items recently. With any renovation there usually comes some smaller changes. After all, in an RV you just don’t have room for carrying items that no longer make sense. So in this post, I’ll introduce some of the newer […]
