We’ve had several requests to do a ‘RV Cooking Show’. We’ve been hesitate to share about our cooking – while we can occasionally make a tasty meal, we really don’t consider ourselves chefs or foodies. What could we possibly impart upon others? The other evening we were already planning to make chicken fajitas, one of […]

RVing in the Northeast – Lessons Learned & Summer Recap
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 […]
Does Visiting All 50 States Mean You’ve Seen the Country?
Some travelers keep a bucket list of items to check off – such as visiting all the national parks, visiting every state or seeing every ball of twine. We really never had a list when we set off full timing. But we did have the ambitious intentions to ‘visit most of the lower 48, Alaska and […]
Tips for Surviving Weekends in Campgrounds
For those who work in a traditional Monday-Friday world, Friday is generally a day of celebration. The end of the workweek, the beginning of the weekend.

Five Years Living & Traveling in a GM 4106 Vintage Bus Conversion
Five years ago this week, we handed over a big wad of cash to a guy in a parking lot and became vintage bus conversion owners. And, wow.. what an amazing life we’ve enjoyed with our mighty gal, Zephyr. And what a long way we’ve come! Not only do we recognize our five years with […]
Tips for RV Driveway Surfing – Being a Great Temporary Neighbor
When we first hit the road, we started getting invitations to come park in people’s driveways. I found it odd at first. Did these well intentioned folks think we couldn’t afford to stay where I thought RV’s belonged – in campgrounds? I was on a mission to prove we weren’t moochers, and could pay our […]
Travel Like A Local? or Travel Like a Tourist?
As perpetual nomads, with intentional blurry lines between ‘every day life’ and ‘travel’ – we’re always experiencing new places while technically living there too. But we’re not quite tourists, and we’re not quite locals. Our lives are often confused for being in perpetual vacation mode, a topic we talked about on camera last week. Today, […]
Getting Across Country: Thoughts on Pace, Routing & Balance as Full Time RVers
Life on the road doesn’t always have clear chapters or segments.
