Back in March, we starting making our plans to spend the summer RVing around the Northeast. An area of the country we had neglected in our prior years of RVing. In our post announcing these plans, we made these statements: We know RVing up that way is much more expensive than we’re used to, more […]

Exiting the Northeast Just Like We Entered – More Bus Maintenance
We officially entered the Northeast (depending on how you define what states are included in the ‘Northeast’) back in mid-June. Our first stop then was US Coach in Vineland, New Jersey for preventative bus maintenance. We liked the shop so much, we wanted to return and get ahead on a few other issues. But first, […]
There’s Nothing Rotten About Groton
First.. thank you. Your outpouring of support for our upcoming new adventure totally blew us away. It’s always a touch scary approaching a new chapter, and announcing it is a big step. In the past, we’ve gotten mixed reactions to what seemed like departures from our course. Perhaps this led to over-explaining our decision which helped pre-empt […]

Eight Years as a Full Time RVer – A Letter Back to Myself Then
I woke up eight years ago this morning, bright eyed and ready to hit the road. I had spent the prior six weeks going through everything I owned, got rid of most of it and packed everything I thought I’d need for an extended road trip into a small box. It never started out as an […]
Leaving the Southwest
We’ve been meandering around the desert southwest since November, enjoying a fabulous and temperate winter with lots of boondocking. Our very first season spent in the area.. aside from our ungodly hot summer in 2011 after we found our bus in Yuma. The Escapade earlier this month served as our bookend event to mark our […]

Our 12 Favorite Campsites of 2014
This year, we stayed in 70 different locations (yes, I counted.). And pretty much every single one of them had something special about them worth remarking on. When we sat down this year to pick our favorites, it was brutally difficult. Each spot we stopped at brings back a special memory. People we were visiting or traveling […]
RV Home Improvement Time
In our hyper-mobile periods of travel, we’re generally changing up our location every few days and ‘on our way’ somewhere. We love those times. The constant discovery of new locations, new scenery, new climates, new friends and new hikes. We’re roaming, moving a couple hours between each stop at most, making miles and balancing life […]
Birthday Week on the Road (an Untraditional Nomadic Thanksgiving)
For the past many years, Chris and I have headed back east for holidays with the family. While we love our families, and spending time with them – we wanted to experience a different winter and decided to stick around the desert southwest this year. We’ve been caravanning with our WheelingIt buddies the past month, and discovered that both […]
