On our way to South Dakota, we decided to pass through Wyoming and visit some places recommended by Chris’ dad. Yellowstone National Park We stayed in Yellowstone for two nights, and spent two days exploring around. It is truly other-worldy there – mud volcanoes, steam vents, geysers and all sorts of other gloopy colorful things […]
Chapters
Oregon to Wyoming
For a little over a week now, Chris and I have been working our way eastward, following the Lewis and Clark trail, at least as far as Montana. It’s been an amazing adventure, and I have added 4 new states that I had never been to before – Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. We headed […]
A Nomadic Moment
Most of the time, when I tell people about our nomadic lifestyle.. the response is ‘You’re living my dream’. But every so often I get the ‘Why would anyone want that’ response. Let me explain my evening. No, that’s not complicated enough. Let me explain my day. Last evening, we were driving down the very […]
Journey to Oregon
I looked at the calendar this morning and realized that September is almost over, and I haven’t posted much at all about our travels since Burning Man. So, here goes… On our way back from Reno, we stopped in Sacramento at Lindsay and Sean’s for a couple of days to get things washed and repacked. […]
Have Fun Out There!
As I posted about a few weeks ago, Jeep bought twenty-two photos from Cherie and I for its “Have Fun Out There” advertising campaign. It looks like they ended up using thirteen of them. Can you find them? (Click here for the answers…) This mosaic ran as a huge two-page spread today in USA Today, […]
The True Spirit of Jeep / Have Fun Out There!
A few weeks ago I was contacted via Flickr mail by Jeep’s PR agency: You have some great shots! I especially love the ones of your Tab and Burning Man! I sent you an email a little while ago about using some of your photos in a Jeep ad. You’re photos have a great feel […]
Touring Northern California
Despite the drastic heat wave that hit us while on the playa (I’ve been assured that 112 degree highs and 95 degree lows is quite abnormal), I really did enjoy my time at Black Rock Desert. It was good to get a feel of desert life, hang out with some really cool people, geek out, […]
The 2 Month Nomadic Review
Yesterday marked two full months of being nomadic with Chris. In some ways, if feels like years.. and in others, if feels like it’s only been days since we left. It’s odd the time perspective shift that happens while out on the road. I’ve been asked by several folks to talk about what it’s like […]
New Mexico & Colorado
One thing I’m noticing about nomadic life, is that the days start to blur together and I really loose track of what day it is. I was relieved last night when I realized it was Thursday, not Friday. So.. last I updated, we were at Lake Meredith in Fritch, TX – which was a spectacular […]
Lake Meredith
Texas is a big state. Even living here for 15 years, I never saw it all. This evening we’re staying over at Lake Meredith National Recreation Area, in the Panhandle – and area I’ve never been to before. We saw it on the map when we were plotting our course to Salida and decided to […]
