When you share your life online, one of the most common questions you’ll get is ‘How Much Does It Cost?’. One of the top questions we got when ramping up to cruise after over a decade of RVing was – how would the costs differ? Now that we’ve got nearly 2 years under our hull […]

Happy Hurricane Season: Our Florida Boating “Plans”
Today, June 1, marks the beginning of the Atlantic Hurricane Season. It’ll run until November 30, and it’s predicted to be an active one. And yup, we just bought a boat in Florida. The way we see it, aside from rushing our cruising up the east coast to say … upstate New York, there’s no […]
Our First Month Aboard our Boat – Burnt Store Marina, Florida
Does it ever feel like time is just floating by us ever more swiftly?? It’s hard to believe it’s been just over a month since we moved aboard Y-Not. We usually take a couple months a year in one spot to rest up, recharge and attend to life. Constantly planning, moving and acclimating to a new […]
Our Last Stop as Full-Time RVers: Koreshan State Historic Site (& Boat Closing!!)
Ok, one final post to wrap up our RVing winter before we shift gears to talking about our new boat! Everything was coming together post survey right on track, which meant we needed to get our butts closer to Punta Gorda to take delivery. We’d also need to be near civilization to take care of […]
Myakka River State Park – Sarasota, FL: In Search of Bad Signal
The thought of intentionally seeking out places with bad cellular signal would have been unfathomable just a few years ago. But we’re in the middle of another round of signal enhancing testing for RVMobileInternet, and needed to find a place with very weak signal to really put the gear to the test. With a denser […]
A Two Week Stay at Jonathan Dickinson State Park – Jupiter, FL
First of all, huge gratitude for the amazing outpouring of support & excitement over our ‘Change – The Only Constant‘ post. You have warmed our hearts tremendously! Ok, next – I need to do some speed blogging as I’m three stops behind – and we now own a boat!! Ahhhhhh. Life is moving fast, and there’s […]
Dupuis Water Management Area, Indiantown (More Free Florida Boondocking) & The Dawn of Unlimited Cellular Data
We were inbetween reservations snagged around the state of Florida in prime winter season, which meant trying out another of Florida’s Free Boondocking locations. We were excited. A few days in a spot other bloggers had positively reported on this season. Perhaps we’d get some hiking in? Chill out. Relax. While it was only a couple […]
Ortona South Campground, A Wildfire Scare & Boat Hunt Update
First of all, big thanks to Kiki for taking over the blog last week. What a whirlwind of non-stop breaking news stories as all four cellular carriers re-vamped their unlimited data plans and a new 250GB & 500GB AT&T data plan became available. We got a wee bit sleep deprived and are just now catching up. […]
Dinner Island Ranch WMA – Free Florida Boondocking
My people are super busy this week doing work stuff (apparently, Verizon launched a new Unlimited Data Plan this week – and that’s kinda big news). So they told me I could be more useful if I caught up the blog, instead of annoying them to go for a walk constantly. Silly people. Ok, so […]
A Dam Fine View at W.P. Franklin Campground – Alva, Florida
Next stop would have us venturing into southwestern Florida to attend Looper-palooza – a convergence of those at various stages of exploring The Great Loop. The event was in Fort Myers, and we anticipated finding last minute camping would be a challenge. However a quick call to the local Elks Club confirmed we’d have an easy […]
