As we make our way across America to southern California, I have become increasingly comfortable with the fact that we can’t experience every great place and park that America has to offer. One year is a long time, and it seems like enough time to see it all. Not so. We’re realizing just how much […]
Tent Rocks National Monument, A Day Hike Near Albuquerque and Santa Fe
Coming out of an awesome camping and hiking trip at Palo Duro State Park in west Texas, we made our way towards Santa Fe on our RV trip around America. We whiffed on fun pretty badly in downtown Santa Fe. It seemed like a really cool city, but each of our stops weren’t kid friendly […]
Camping and Hiking at Palo Duro Canyon State Park, outside Amarillo, TX
After miles and miles of driving through flat farms and ranches of central and west Texas, we arrived at the grand canyon of Texas at Palo Duro State Park. The state park spans a massive canyon with high walls of red rock with striped bands of yellow, brown, and white marking millions of years of […]
My biggest pet peeve about RV life
One of my biggest pet peeves about life in the RV is stuffing things, and the biggest stuffing menace is Katie. It’s a constant source of friction, albeit humorous friction, between us. Katie stuffs things into cabinets, and I come behind her to un-stuff and organize. Here’s what I mean: Katie stuffs things in bins […]
Camping in Smoky Mountains National Park, Cataloochee Valley
We spent a few wonderful days camping in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, mostly in the remote Cataloochee Valley. The dirt road leading over a mountain and then down to the Cataloochee Valley is pretty daunting, especially pulling a 21’ travel trailer. The road is only three miles long, but the average speed is […]
Giving Out Trail Magic on the Appalachian Trail – Waterville Road in Smoky Mountain National Park
In 2006, I thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail, 2,176 miles from Maine to Georgia over about five and a half months. On the journey, I had a lot of ups and downs, and I met a lot of great people in up times and down. When I met great people in down times, they always seemed […]
My Indiana Jones Complex
I can trace my love for adventure to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. A handsome archeologist traveling the world on grand adventures to save priceless historical artifacts, women, and children from the evil intentions of bad men. Yep, that’s who I wanted to be when I grew up. I so much wanted to […]
The Adventure Hairdo, with Lots of Tears
We got a little antsy waiting for the Airstream to come out of the shop. The trailer was stuck for about a week while we waited on some special order parts. I decided it was time to shave my head, like I always do before big adventures because shorter hair is much easier and less […]
Meeting other traveling families along the journey
There are many families with children traveling the country full-time in an RV. I don’t know how many families, but more that I expected when I first started looking around for them. There are also a number of families traveling in Airstreams, which is kind of subculture within the full-time RV community. We met one […]
How to manage rental property while traveling full-time?
We’ve talked about our real estate investment strategy and why we rent our home while traveling in the past, and here we are finally addressing how we manage those properties while on an adventure. When not traveling, we manage our own rental properties. We place the tenants, take the calls, and make repairs as needed. […]
