We recently did a map refresh update for our iOS app Coverage?. If you’re not familiar with our little app yet, it overlays coverage maps from the 4 major cellular carriers, and is intended to help us mobile bandwidth junkies better plan our routes to stay connected. It started as a selfish project to better […]

Chattanooga and St. Louis
We completed our 380 mile driving day from the Savannah area to Chattanooga, and then another 450 mile repositioning into St. Louis last weekend. Time on the road was mostly uneventful, except for a potentially scary encounter in Atworth, GA (just north of Atlanta). Moving from Savannah to Chattanooga We had pulled off I-75 in […]
A Special Road Trip
Nearly 43 years ago, my dad proposed to my mom while sailing around Ledge Lighthouse near Groton, CT – where they met. My father was a submarine sailor, and my mom worked on the sub base at the credit union. My dad was smitten with her immediately and chased her for years, but she wouldn’t […]
Georgia On Our Mind and Under Our Tires
The past couple of weeks have been super busy, and combined with some WordPress attacks that brought our server to a sluggish state – we just haven’t had time to keep up. So we’re taking you back in time to catch up! On Thursday May 9, we decided the time had come to cross out […]
Derailed
So, we’re currently in Groton, Connecticut. Our bus is back near Savannah, GA parked with our dear friends Ann & Elliott – and Kiki is looking after them all. How and why are we here? For about the past week we’ve been on a very purposeful non-bus road trip. It’s been an amazing and emotional […]
Busy Chilling
We have thoroughly enjoyed the past week parked at Wekiwa Springs State Park. Not only have we gotten lots of rest and relaxation in – we’ve also been able to catch up on some research projects, hung out with friends, went to an intense yoga class (ouch!) and handled some business projects. Oh, and there’s […]
Moving On…
On Wednesday morning, we fired up the engine and left the Melbourne area – where we’ve been parked, this time, since late February. It’s been nearly a month since my father passed away, and it just felt like the right time. Lucky Clover Mobile Home Park (our review) has served us well for over 5 months […]
Sorting, Prepping and Re-Integrating
April has been a life changing and challenging month for us. The months leading up to it were pretty darn tough and intense too. Between my father and the business turmoil up – we’ve pretty much been in high-alert crisis mode for way too long. The past few weeks have obviously been focused on everything […]
Hmm.. Maybe we do have a Pattern?
Many times we’ve been asked ‘So, do you have a pattern you follow each year?’ We always answer that we make it up as we go and don’t follow a pattern or routine. But as we prepare to get back out there on the open road this spring, I’m having a bit of dejavu. See if […]
License Plate Bingo! Play Along…
Before we head out of Florida, we’re thinking of applying for personalized license plate tags for the bus and Mini – and even more so, we’d like it to be on one of Florida’s many speciality plates (to of course color coordinate!) Our creative juices are not yet fully back online – so we’d like to […]
