Last month we toasted a year of owning our motor yacht Y-Not (a Bayliner 4788). And this week, we nod our heads to remember shoving off from Punta Gorda, FL to start our American Great Loop Adventure after spending several weeks learning our boat systems, getting training and deciding we were ready for our first […]
Leaving Miami and Resuming our Great Loop Cruising Season for 2018!
Now that our winter RVing season has come to a close and our bus is safely in storage in Texas – it’s time to get back to cruising! Our MINI Roadtrip took us back to Miami where we had left Y-Not after 5 weeks living on the hard to attend to damages from the submerged […]
The ’10 Year Rule’ – Do RV Parks Really Turn Older RVs Away?
Since our RV is based on a 55+ year old bus chassis, we’re often asked if we get turned away from RV parks for being too old. There are, unfortunately, some commercial and private RV parks that do have a rule against allowing older rigs. Generally the cut off is 10 years, but sometimes we’ve […]
Nomadic Friendships: When ‘Until Next Time’ Might Be A Long Time
Community on the road is quite a bit different than the community you might experience while living stationary. The people you’re hanging out with can shift as often as you change locations. Just a few of our meet-ups in the last couple of months: Sometimes you connect with fellow nomads as your paths cross for […]
A Cat, a MINI Cooper and a Road Trip – Last Bus Stop in Austin and Return to the Boat in Miami
Wow, you blink and it’s over already. That was a quick 6-ish weeks on the road in the RV and the time had come to store Zephyr and return to our cruising season. Here’s our video recap of our last stop in Austin and the road trip back to Florida (caution: lots of cat video!): […]
Decongesting at Pedernales Falls State Park – Johnson City, TX
After the RV Entrepreneur Summit, we knew we’d be tired – big events always wear us out. So we planned ahead and had booked an extended stay at nearby Pedernales Falls State Parks, and didn’t let anyone know where we were headed. We were intending some quality decompression time to catch up on work, sleep […]
The RV Entrepreneur Summit 2018 – Recap (#RVESummit)
We just wrapped up an amazing time at The RV Entrepreneur Summit in Fredericksburg, TX – held at Jellystone RV Park (awesome park!). This conference is founded and hosted by Heath & Alyssa Padgett, who also produce an awesome podcast interviewing working on the road RVers. This is the second year for the summit with […]
Hiding out in Texas – Getting Ready for The RV Entrepreneur Summit
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 […]
Traveling Through Florida – Back on the Road in the Bus
The time and the miles are flying by as we’ve made our way to Texas. But first, let’s get you caught up on the first part of the trip. Last we left you, we had just gotten the bus out of storage in Melbourne and hit the road. First Stop: Silver Springs State Park We […]
Just Because Y-Not Is More FUN Than Why (Limited Edition – No Longer Available)
For years we’ve had readers and viewers ask if we had any ‘Technomadia swag’ they could purchase. We’re just not ‘swag’ sort of bloggers – we do this for FUN. But with a boat, it’s pretty common to have a boat shirt – and we’ve been considering what we wanted for ours. Last year while […]
