As we’re a little bit visible on the interwebs, we occasionally get contacted by the media to be featured in articles, documentaries and TV spots. We have no drive or goal to be in the limelight, in fact – we’d kinda rather not be. But if there’s an authentic feeling opportunity to share our story […]

To Infinity and Beyond!
We’ve now been settled in our spot on the Space Coast of Florida for two weeks now, and it seems like we just got here. We’ve been frantically busy with lots of work related stuff. My father is retiring at the end of next month, and we’ve been super busy putting together a distributed team […]
Ramblings: Tales from Nomads – Tacky Texans -> Fruitiny
Meet Brice and Rose In 2010, we met the Tacky Texans – Brice & Rose – during one of our visits to Austin, TX. This young couple was intrigued by small house living, minimalism and creating a mobile lifestyle. They had just taken a huge step towards that by purchasing and moving into a travel […]
I am the Ultimate Accessory!
My people seem to have this weird thing.. they color coordinate everything! Pillows, blankets, towels, dishes, pot holders, underwear, ethernet cables, toe nail polish. Heck, I’d bet they’d even choose produce that matches the countertops if they could! Humans are strange, but I love them. In our Oliver trailer, the interior was red and black. […]
Nomadic Nesting Mode.. On.
Nomadic doesn’t mean being constantly in motion. It just means being poised to be mobile. Our own desires for how much motion we’re undergoing in a time period changes often. Sometimes, we really enjoy moving around every couple of days and exploring lots of new locations. Such as our past summer. Sometimes it makes sense […]
A Model Citizen
When we first bought our bus last summer, I started poking around to see if there happened to be any GM 4106 scale models or toys out there. But all references I could find with a quick search included the words ‘rare’ and ‘expensive’. Seeking out a toy model would have to be a project […]
Apple’s iOS6 – The Best Place For Maps
The Internet is abuzz this week about the new iPhone 5, the iOS 6 software update, and OMG how horrible Apple’s new mapping software is. By the amount of fuss being made, you’d think that Apple had just made a catastrophic mistake and was on the verge of becoming the next RIM or Palm or […]
Slow Roll into Florida
Our big goal for the summer was to arrive back to Florida in time for my dad’s birthday, to present him our Operation: Dip Toes surprise. However, serendipity and good friends intervened and made that rendezvous happen up near Savannah. Thus allowing us to take a much slower approach into Central Florida. St. Augustine Almost […]
The End of an Era
We awoke early this morning (well, if you count 7am as early, we do) along Cocoa Beach. We’re parked next to our friends Sean & Louise of OurOdyssey. Two and a half years ago we met for the first time in nearby Titusville to watch the last night launch of Space Shuttle Endeavor. This morning, […]
