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 […]

Re-Introducing ‘Coverage?’ – Carrier’s Coverage Maps in Your Pocket, Now Available for Android Too!

Apr 18, 2017 by Cherie Ve Ard 19 Comments

Nearly 7-years ago in the middle of a crazy cross-country repositioning, we prepaid for a campsite in a beautiful location surrounded by wild flowers in Colorado for 3 days. We had great signal on our cellular devices and decided to plop down and get some work done. A few hours later, our carriers started sending us […]

Awesome Campsites – Tips for Selecting the BEST Site!

Feb 25, 2017 by Cherie Ve Ard 14 Comments

The right site in a campground can be the difference between a crappy experience and an awesome one. What makes a site great for you, will likely differ than what makes a site great for us. We personally love sites with great views and maximum privacy – we prefer to see a field, trees or […]

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 […]

The Florida RV SuperShow & Self-Driving RVs?!?

Jan 27, 2017 by Cherie Ve Ard 11 Comments

We’ve been in Florida during winters before when the big Florida RV SuperShow happens in Tampa. Being averse to crowds,  we had never made attending a priority. I honestly hadn’t really even looked at the dates to realize we’d be in the area until an e-mail showed up that basically said: Would you like to […]

Video Streaming on the Road Tips: How to use HDMI Adapters with Smartphones & Tablets

Dec 5, 2016 by Cherie Ve Ard 19 Comments

While we’re on vacation this week, we thought we’d share an excerpt out of a new guide we just released over at RVMobileInternet about video streaming. Getting your TV and media fix while being mobile is definitely an element of RVing that has gotten substantially easier over the years. Streaming Video over Cellular Data So often […]

Big RV: Little Generator – Downsizing to a 2500W Propane Generator

Jul 20, 2016 by Cherie Ve Ard 21 Comments

If you were hanging around our little corner of the web this time last year, then you might remember we had a few little BUNCH of modifications made to our bus. One of the projects we tackled was downsizing from a 7500 watt diesel generator to a 2500 watt propane powered one. We had a lot of […]

Running an RV AC off Solar, Batteries, and a Hybrid Boosting Inverter

Jun 6, 2016 by Cherie Ve Ard 45 Comments

We’re currently driveway surfing with friends in coastal Georgia, where it’s pretty darn hot (and crazy humid!) as the summer fast approaches. They only have a 15A power outlet on a front porch available for us to plug a long extension cord into, which for many RVs would mean blowing breakers or limping along without […]

TV & Movie Viewing Options for RVers

Jul 28, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 27 Comments

While we do enjoy getting out exploring our new locales, hiking in nature, visiting with friends – this RVing lifestyle for us, is about balance. There’s no shame in enjoying watching television or a good flick. This is life on the road, not a vacation. We are RVing, not just camping and spending all our […]
