We are deep in the midst of a kitchen remodel this week, and we’ve been posting progress photos on our Facebook page as we go. We’ll do a post with better photos of the completed project later. But because the remodel has involved us permanently pulling our propane powered range / oven, we’ve been getting a […]

The Cost of Leaving Our Options Open
We don’t plan our travels much far in advance. We like to keep our lives open to embracing serendipity – when cool things emerge as potentials, we like having the flexibility to say ‘YES!’. This agility has led to some amazing experiences. However it does have a financial cost. As we often don’t know where […]
January Wrap-Up and What’s Ahead
Just a quick, rather disjointed, update. We’re still in Florida, parked in Kissimmee. Our location is ideal – a gracious friend is letting us park on his amazing land that has full hook-ups. It is such a blessing to have a safe place to leave our home, and a place to retreat to. Without worrying […]
Four Years Shampoo Free
I love the look on people’s faces when I tell them I’ve been no-poo for over 4 years now. Once I get past the ‘ouch’ or ‘you should see a doctor about that’ or ‘add some fiber to your diet!’ comments – then I explain. I haven’t used shampoo in over four years. I think […]
7 Months in a Bus
It’s now been nearly 7 months since we purchased and moved into our vintage bus. We thought this might be a good time to answer some questions we keep getting, such as: Do you like bus life? How much have you spent on your bus projects? Bus Life vs. Travel Trailer Life First of all, […]
Extreme Rough Break (why our posts may be infrequent)
Following serendipity at every turn is an interesting game we’ve been playing for the past several years. It’s not about taking every opportunity that comes up, but rather creating a life that allows us to both be in tune with the possibilities, and being agile enough to follow the ones we choose. Every so often […]
Bringing in the New Year
Last weekend we attended the Arcadia Bus Rally – one of the longest running bus rallies in the country, and certainly one of the largest on the east coast. There were far more buses here than at the BCM Rally we attended back in October in Chattanooga, and much more variety. It was so much […]
Live from the Arcadia Rally
We arrived yesterday to the Arcadia Bus Rally 2012, and are parked awning-to-awning with our friends, Sean & Louise of Our Odyssey. There are many many buses here, and it’s awesome. We just found out that the rally is being live streamed: http://www.busnut.com/arcadia.html So if you’re wishing you could see a bunch of […]
Our 2011 Travel Route
Every year since we hit the road together, I’ve hand created a year end routing map – it’s such a fun way to reflect on the year’s adventures. Our past maps : 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 2011 was a year of a lot of changes for us, and trying to illustrate that on a map was quite […]
Happy Holidays
The park our campground was in while in Melbourne, FL was also the host of the Space Coast Lightfest. Which meant every evening we had to ride through 1.1 miles of light displays to get back home. We got to know these displays rather well. They included all of the holiday traditional favorites… Wishing you […]
