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 […]

Earning Our ‘Abundant Boondocking’ Merit Badge: Bus Renovation Report

Feb 18, 2016 by Cherie Ve Ard 51 Comments

We’ve been having fun this winter putting our summer renovations to the test to see how much they impact our boondocking ability. We’ve had a few requests to share about some of our renovations from a boondocking perspective. Since we’ve now done several extended dry camping stops since the summer, it seems like a good […]

How We Added 5 Feet to Our RV – Without Adding Slides

Feb 1, 2016 by Cherie Ve Ard 44 Comments

In our continuing catch-up of last summer’s bus renovations, today I wanted to share about something that took us by surprise.

Jan 8, 2016 by Kiki 30 Comments

An advantage of having a cat rule your life instead of a dog, is the we don’t use the euphemism of ‘lets go for a walk’ to really mean ‘I need to pee or poop all over things’. We cats are much more civilized. We do our business in a box full of sand and […]

Smashed RV Windshield – What to Do if a Rock Cracks your Motorhome’s Glass

Apr 20, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 20 Comments

KA-BANG!!! That’s the sound that startled me out of a the near daze I was in, zoned out in the passenger seat trying to cope with the traffic chaos. We were navigating the roads through the oil fields of Texas just south of the Odessa/Midland area, anxious to escape the endless miles of big trucks, torn […]
