We Bought a House…. !! Our Long Term RVing Plans at SKP Saguaro Co-Op in Benson, AZ

Jun 2, 2018 by Cherie Ve Ard 69 Comments

Ok.. well, not technically. First, we didn’t buy property. We purchased a lifetime lease. Next, it’s not really a ‘house’ but an RV lot with a casita. But still, we’re super excited to have finally reached this milestone that has been in the works for over two years and all part of our long term […]

Hiding out in Texas – Getting Ready for The RV Entrepreneur Summit

Feb 21, 2018 by Cherie Ve Ard 10 Comments

When we were imaging our road trip from Florida to Texas, we had in our minds we’d be able to squeeze in several 3-4 night stops in awesome places along the way. We’d have time to chill out in wooded campsites, enjoy nature, hiking trails and get some work done too. Sometimes, the vision doesn’t […]

Florida Road Trip!! A Week Back in the Bus

Jun 16, 2017 by Cherie Ve Ard 10 Comments

After getting the boat moved to Fort Myers on our initial leg of the Great Loop, and a couple weeks to get into the swing of urban life – it was time to return to bus life! Well, at least for a week. Our mission was a combination of getting the bus into its longer […]

The 56th Escapade: Escapees / Xscapers RV Rally – Essex Junction, VT

Aug 11, 2016 by Cherie Ve Ard 27 Comments

We’re not ‘rally’ people. But there’s one large scale rally that we keep coming back to, and that’s the Escapade – organized by the Escapee’s RV Club. It has a special place in our hearts. But honestly, the thought of going this year sent us into tremors several times leading up to the event. We […]

Eastward Bound: The Florida Panhandle During Spring Break

Apr 3, 2016 by Cherie Ve Ard 14 Comments

We love the Florida panhandle, and I had dreams of some time on the beach at one of the many fabulous state park campgrounds on our way across. Times in the past we’ve stayed at Grayton Beach and St. Andrews State Parks, and would have liked to check out some of the other coveted spots […]

A Quick Meander Through Arizona – Benson & Arizona City

Dec 22, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 35 Comments

After several weeks exploring New Mexico, we decided to continue meandering westward to keep our options open for rendezvousing with friends who had already reached southern California. We were still on the fence if we would just explore more of Arizona, or push to get on through. We still had a couple weeks to figure […]

Take the RVer Census – Let Your Voice Be Heard!

Aug 25, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 17 Comments

We’ve long felt that data on today’s RVers could be critical information to have when designing services, approaching companies or fighting unjust legal rulings. Knowing how many of us there are out here, and some of our basic demographics can shape so many things. Especially as the demographics of RVers is so rapidly changing with […]

Our Second Escapade – Tucson, AZ

Mar 20, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 13 Comments

Our stop at Picacho Peak State Park was an intentionally planned rendezvous with our friends Travis & Mel to do some last minute strategizing on the launch of Xscapers before Escapade. It was lovely getting some extended in person time with them, after nearly a year of video and phone chats. We then meandered over to the […]

Happy First Birthday, RVillage! Celebrating in Arizona City, Picacho Peak and Escapade

Mar 13, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 10 Comments

It seems like it was just a year ago that we literally pressed the ‘launch’ button on unleashing RVillage to the world. Oh wait.. it WAS just a year ago this week! It’s been a crazy year since, and now RVillage has over 17,000 members who are connecting with each other and making new friends […]

Off to the Escapade! (Tucson, AZ – March 8-13)

Mar 5, 2015 by Cherie Ve Ard 10 Comments

Tomorrow morning we’ll pull into the Pima County Fairgrounds, starting our adventures at the Escapee’s 55th Annual Escapade in Tucson. Whew. It’s been some very hectic weeks for us leading up to this to prepare. So much had to get done, including getting the re-write of The Mobile Internet Handbook for 2015 completed in time to have print […]
