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 […]
Getting Ready to Get Back on the Road (and The Mobile Internet Handbook Launch!)
For the past couple of weeks we’ve been in transition from our boating season back to returning to the bus for a bit. After the holidays with family we actually brought our Mini Cooper back to Miami to make this next phase a lot easier. Before leaving the area, we arranged some social visits with […]
Why Yes – You Can have Scenic Views AND Great Internet

Vacation?!? Wait, Aren’t We Always on Vacation?
Despite common opinion, full time nomads are not on a permanent vacation. Even those not working full time like ourselves. Sure, life on the road has us constantly exploring new places, and the lines between vacation and normal life get awfully blurred. But there’s probably no doubt that our own lives could not be mistaken […]
Miami the Hard Way – Boat Haul Out, Repairs & Living On the Hard
In our last Great Loop travel journal we had just hit a submerged channel marker leaving the Keys and were starting our 25 mile tow to Miami. This chapter will wrap up our first cruising season, but there’s not much cruising to share – it was mostly of us living on land in our boat […]
2017 Travel Route & Year in Review
Let’s face it, 2017 has been one heck of a memorable year! Year end is a great time to be a bit retrospective and try to summarize the past 12 months in one spot. Usually we wrap our years up with a route of our travels that shows us flinging ourselves across the country. And if […]
Seasons Greetings

A Challenging Departure from The Keys – A Tropical Storm & A Bump in the Water
When we last left our Great Loop travel journal, we had just left Marathon after Hurricane Irma and found a protected anchorage in Plantation Key to ride out the season’s first cold front. Now, another tropical system was brewing and on course to pass right over the Keys. We decide to seek out a sheltered […]
