Back on the Road.. And it Feels Great!
Ahh… the freedom of the open road! Sounds other than trains squealing, vile rap music, forklifts, welding, grinding and the other regular shop sounds we had grown so accustomed to. Views other than of a gravel industrial lot. Healthier meals cooked at home, instead of constant convenience food. Miles under our tires being made. Washing squished […]

Take the RVer Census – Let Your Voice Be Heard!
We’ve long felt that data on today’s RVers could be critical information to have when designing services, approaching companies or fighting unjust legal rulings. Knowing how many of us there are out here, and some of our basic demographics can shape so many things. Especially as the demographics of RVers is so rapidly changing with […]
Bus Renovation Progress Report #2: Week of August 17
Earlier this week we relocated back to Elkhart, IN to Master Tech RV to be onsite to keep on top of all of the projects ongoing with our bus renovations. We are incredibly thankful that a kind local supporter has loaned us their RV so that we have a place to live on site and have a comfortable […]
