2015 Note: After our awesome 2014 experience documented below, we returned to Master Tech RV in Summer 2015 for a new paint job, hydronics installation, generator swap out and other projects. This time, after a year of getting to know Tim better across the country, we’d be dropping our bus/RV off for 6-8 weeks while we […]

Shopping for RV Seats in Elkhart, IN – Our Flexsteel 517 Seats, Peeling Haloleather & Replacement
When you own a bus, or well, any home actually – there’s always a to-do list a mile long of potential future projects. Our lovely Zephyr is no exception. We bought her almost 3 years ago for a song, but knowing full well that it would unending upgrade projects. So when we have access to […]
Change Your Office View: Full Time RVing Workspace Examples (Part 2)
Adapting to living on the road in an RV means adjusting to small house living. That’s tough enough. But if you’re working on the road from your mobile home, that also means finding a way to comfortably setup desk space. We started this series last year, and have been collecting more case studies of awesome […]
Hanging around Elkhart
We’ve been hanging out in Elkhart, IN ever since the Escapade let out on the 17th at Elkhart Campground. Between the DOVES hosting Red Cross training classes, Nick Russell of the awesome Gypsy Journal offering his Self Publishing workshop and bunches of friends – who could resist? It’s been non-stop events, social gatherings, deepening of […]
Ramblings: Tales from Nomads – Wheeling It
Meet Nina & Paul After spending a few years living in Asia in high powered and stressful jobs, Nina and Paul decided they needed a drastic change in their lives.

So.. what’s up with the Hula Hoop?
We hope that wherever you find yourself this Memorial Day weekend, you are surrounded by whatever inspires you – nature, friends, family, good times, wine, solitude. We’re still hanging out in Elkhart with folks still lingering post-Escapade, and took care of some medical errands this past week. It’s been a blast being here, and seems […]
Reflections on the Escapade
On a rather last minute whim, when we left Mitch’s castle we decided to head east instead of west – towards Goshen, IN and the 54th Annual Escapade, the annual rally of the Escapees RV Club. After attending the big FMCA rally down in Perry earlier this year, we had been told to expect quite […]
Postcards from the Road
Last year, for Christmas, I gave my 91 year old grandma an empty book. And no, I was not being a grinch. Technology makes it easy to stay in touch with connected family and friends. I regularly FaceTime with my folks, exchange text messages with old friends, and our blog and Facebook make it easy for […]
From a Castle to Escapade
After we left our decadent stay at the Castle in Illinois, we made the decision we were heading east instead of west to attend our first ever Escapade – the annual rally of the Escapees. We had a little over a week to make it to Goshen, IN – so we decided to take a […]
