We left Washoe Lake State Park, with Paul and Nina in the lead to scout out ahead of us some options they hadn’t been to before for our next stop down Highway 395. We got a text message from them along the way that simply said ‘How about a sunset hot spring soak?’ Like, who’s […]

To the Desert – Washoe Lake State Park
Last Tuesday, Chris picked me up at the Reno airport after my solo trip to Florida and whisked me away to our new location. I gotta say, this flying home to a new location than I left from is a bit jarring to the senses. When I left, we were parked in humid and rainy […]
Zephyr is Solar Powered! – 800 Watt RV Bus Roof Solar Install
For those of you who have been paying close attention, you might have seen a little extra something perched on our roof in the last few photos we’ve shared online. Or you may have noticed that Cherie teased about leaving me behind visiting friends at AM Solar while she headed off to visit her mom in […]
A Special Solo Trip: Commisioning of the USS Tim VeArd
It’s very rare that Chris and I travel independently these days. But once we got to Eugene our paths would diverge for a few days. You may recall that my father’s submarine veterans organization honored him by naming the 23′ model submarine (caution, that post may cause tears) they were building as a parade float after him. […]
Quick Catch Up: Portland & Eugene
Whew. The past couple of weeks have been crazy busy for us – lots going on, lots of new friends, lots of adventure – including some solo trips for each of us and some new awesome upgrades to the bus. But before we get to the really fun stuff, we need to catch up on […]
The Final Two: Cape Meares and Tillamook Rock Lighthouses
Whew, what a week it’s been. We’ve been super busy visiting friends in Portland and keeping up with some major news on the the RV Mobile Internet Resource Center. If you haven’t heard yet, Verizon started making first contact with (soon to be former) Millenicom customers on Monday. We’ve been tracking it non-stop at the […]
Next Up the Oregon Coast: The Yaquina Lighthouses & Newport
Yet another delightful stay along the Oregon coast near Yachats came to an end. With the turn in weather causing more rainy and cloudy days than not – it was time to move on up the coast for our next stop. The next lighthouses are two right by each other – Yaquina Bay Lighthouse and Yaquina […]
Next up the Oregon Coast: Heceta Head Lighthouse & Yachats
We had such a delightful stay at Winchester Bay, that it was tempting to stay around longer. But we were also looking forward to the next stop up the coast – exploring the Yachats area, and touring Heceta Head Lighthouse. So we pulled out of Salmon Harbor Marina and headed up with coast, with a […]
October Mobile Internet Cellular Shake-Up
We just released our The Mobile Internet Handbook a couple months ago, and as crazy as the technology industry is – there are already some pretty major announcements that impact content in the book. And that’s exactly why we launched the RV Mobile Internet Resource Center and our new premium membership service, Mobile Internet Aficionados – as compliments to the […]
Next Up on the Oregon Coast – Umpqua River Lighthouse & Winchester Bay
My new camera (Sony WX350) is taking so many great photos (and trust me – it’s mostly the camera, not the photographer), and each of our stops have been completely wonderful on their own – that I’ve decided that each deserves a separate entry in the travelogue. Our last stop was in Charleston, OR on […]
