Life on the road is awesome. We’re so blessed to work and travel, so that we didn’t have to wait for retirement to enjoy this lifestyle. Comfortable working space for two geeks who work online however isn’t a built in feature of most RVs. One of the reasons we sought out a bus conversion was for the […]

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 […]
The Florida RV SuperShow & Self-Driving RVs?!?
We’ve been in Florida during winters before when the big Florida RV SuperShow happens in Tampa. Being averse to crowds, we had never made attending a priority. I honestly hadn’t really even looked at the dates to realize we’d be in the area until an e-mail showed up that basically said: Would you like to […]
Looking for Peace & Quiet? Skip Lake Manatee State Park – Bradenton, FL
Snagging last minute spots in the high season is kinda fun if you’re willing to go with the flow. Sometimes you score big time with an awesome site (like our last stop – Oscar Scherer State Park), and sometimes… well… Lake Manatee State Park – Bradenton, FL I was excited to be able to snag […]
Kicking the Year Off at Oscar Scherer State Park – Osprey, FL
We woke up New Years morning from our NyQuil hangover in Arcadia, FL at the bus rally. That evening, Fat Point Brewery in nearby Punta Gorda had invited the rally to move to their parking lot for beer tasting. Since we hadn’t been able to find reservations until the 2nd, we had decided we’d likely overnight […]
Happy New Year (Ooops, a Bit Late?) – Holidays in Melbourne & Arcadia Bus Rally
It seems like just last evening we were toasting each other with NyQuil (of the cherry vintage) to bring in the new year. And wow, now it’s the 9th. Just how does the time fly so quickly?? Yup, we started our new years off ever so romantically, both of us fighting some sort of crud we […]
Our 2016 Travel Route & Year in Review
Ah, end of the year. That time when we look back, remark on how fast it went by, how much we did, and what’s ahead. For us road nomads, we usually wrap it up with a route of our travels. So, presenting our 2016 travel map (below is a larger embedded and interactive map, you’ll need to click over […]
Our 12 Favorite Campgrounds of 2016
This year, we stayed in 80 different locations in our RV – and we’ve picked our 12 favorites to share with you. To keep this post from just being a listing the spots we stayed at, we had to hold ourselves to some guidelines: The spot couldn’t be a place that made a prior year’s list. So […]
From our Home to Yours..
Wishing you Happy Holidays! We’re back in Florida for the first time in a couple years for the holiday season – having spent the past two in the desert Southwest far from family. This year, we’re soaking up quality time with both of our parents. It’s a true blessing. We still have lots of year end stuff […]
Vacation!! Panama Canal Cruise – Holland America Zuiderdam
We love cruising. It’s a great way to travel, let someone else do the logistical planning and take care of many of the daily chores. We’ve done many of them over the years, I think I’m up around 20 or 25 at this point. And it’s an especially great way to travel with others. Everyone can […]
