We are thrilled to announce that our new eBook – The Mobile Internet Handbook, is now available! This started as a blog post overviewing options for us RVing nomads … and it turned into a 26,000 word book. We apparently had a lot of information in our brains to dump, way too much for a […]

Still Keeping Positive in Montana
Despite the reality that we have now: Witnessed two full moons over Billings Are considered regulars with our sewer tank pump out service Done laundry 3 times Know the menus at every restaraunt nearby by heart .. we are still keeping positive as our engine rebuild progresses. It’s gone a bit slower than anticipated, that […]
The Technomads have Left Montana!
After a night of rocking blues in Billings, Montana to celebrate the completion of our engine rebuild.. it was time to hit the open roads! It’s been quite a bizarre feeling mixed with excitement and daze. I can only imagine it’s similar to a young bird getting kicked out of their nest to go explore […]
Vrooms & Blues
We had a delightful and recharging stay at Spring Creek Campground (our review) just outside Big Timber, MT. We don’t know how much of our experience there was just juxtaposition to our stay of 6 weeks in a parking lot, or if the campground really was that awesome – but it was just what we […]
Where are the LTE Boosters???
Without our two cellular boosters, our six weeks spent at Cape Blanco Lighthouse would not have been quite the serene paradise that it had been. It would have been maddening. Others staying at Cape Blanco State Park had taken to calling the bluff side picnic area a short walk down the road “the phone booth” […]
Rebuilding an 8V-71 Detroit Diesel Engine
It took longer than any of us imagined it might. When we broke down on June 14th, the thought that we might still be in Billings when Cherie’s 40th birthday rolled around on August 4th seemed like something to joke about. That was over a month off! Even considering the time it took us to […]
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 […]
To Repair, Replace, Rebuild or Repower our 8V71?
So there we were – broken down and ending up in Billings, MT – pondering our options to get back on the road. Last Monday morning the techs at Interstate PowerSystems (where we had been hauled to over the weekend) confirmed what we already suspected – that the overheating almost certainly had caused non-trivial damage to […]
The Millenicom Verizon Hotspot Plan Survival Guide
Updated in April 2014 to reflect the recent announced changes in terms and pricing. It’s no secret, we’re big fans of Millenicom. For those just joining in – Millenicom is a “Mobile Virtual Network Operator” (aka MVNO) – a company which does not own a wireless network of its own, but which makes arrangements with […]
Rough Landing
We have had a rather rough landing into 2013, and are currently overwhelmed with the logistics of sorting it all out. We will return in a bit to update you on the fabulous bus rally we attended and then our amazing arrival to Cedar Key to bring in the New Year with group of fellow […]
