Motto: Always Positive (RIP, Daddy – Tim VeArd)
It is with sadness in my heart that I write this post – and it is to let you know that my father peacefully passed away this past Sunday. He was surrounded by love, family, honor and appreciation in his final days. The past few weeks have been intense as his disease progressed far more […]
Ripples of Small Talk
Small talk is usually supposed to be just that – small talk. You’re asked the most basic of questions, and it’s anticipated you’ll give back a quick and easy answer. Things like ‘where are you from’ and ‘what do you do’ tend to be the starter questions. I’ve never really liked small talk. I like […]
Un-Cutting the Cord
Today is my seventh Nomadiversary – seven years since I cut the cord and left traditional fixed-location life behind. Over the years, I’ve often been asked “Why?” – what inspired me to hit the road to head out to see the world with only a ridiculously small Tab Clamshell and a little Jeep Liberty to […]
Millenicom: We’re All In This Together

And this is the biggest downside of life with blazing fast […]
Hanging In There
We’ve now been back in Melbourne, FL for nearly 3 weeks. Wow, the time goes by so quickly. We’ve been non-stop busy ever since we landed, and have little time for much else than the highest of priorities. The highest priority has been of course my father. We spend a good portion of our time […]
Realities of Living & Traveling in a RV Full Time
We’ve known Pace & Kyeli for a few years now, and when they came to us this past summer with their latest idea to sell most their stuff, buy an RV and hit the road – we were supportive of their enthusiasm while trying our best to set their expectations to realistic. After just five […]
