Chris and I have been online interacting socially since before the internet was called the internet. It’s part of who we are, and being online forms a vibrant part of our social lives. But we have to admit, some days, we feel a little spread thin trying to keep up with all the places we […]
Shopping for and Buying Our Boat
The buying process of a boat and an RV are similar, but yet very different. Buying an RV is closer to the process of buying a vehicle, whereas a boat (at least a cruising style boat) is closer to a house. A while back we shared our tips & tricks for shopping for both boats […]
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 […]
Re-Introducing ‘Coverage?’ – Carrier’s Coverage Maps in Your Pocket, Now Available for Android Too!
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 […]
We Tied the Y-Not!
On Monday evening at sunset, aboard our new vessel Y-Not, we made our relationship partnership legal to the state of Florida. It was a small intimate zany marriage license signing event (some might call it a ‘wedding’) with just our parents and a local notary. My father, who passed four years ago today, I know was […]

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 […]
Change – The Only Constant (Thoughts as we Embark on our Next Chapter)
Life is about learning, exploring and expanding your comfort zones. Whenever you make a shift, you’re bound to go through emotions and even a decent dose of naysayers who want to interject their words of caution and try to steer you away from your dreams. You better have a lot of $$$ to keep that […]
