Last week Katie shared her thoughts on the halfway point. Her post caused me to spend a little time in San Francisco this last weekend reflecting on our first six months of adventure. I realized that this family trip now marks my longest adventure in duration. Thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail took 165 days, or about […]
Living Out of Our Tiny Fridge
Remember in college those little fridge/freezers you had in your dorm room? That’s what we have in the Airstream. It’s tiny. I kind of love it. For me the difference between living on the road and camping on the road is this fridge. It makes life so much easier and so much more livable. At […]
An Ode to Summer Camp
I spent my summers starting at age 12 going to a summer camp in Brevard, North Carolina. Being from Florida, just getting to wear a sweatshirt in the summer time was exciting. Add in over night hikes, mountain biking, white water rafting, and countless other summer camp activities and I was a smitten kitten. In […]
Thoughts From the Halfway Point
I can’t believe we’ve been at this for 6 months. Part of me never thought we’d actually make it this long. Part of me was sure we’d be chugging along just like we are. I can honestly say that after being in a house for a couple weeks we all really, REALLY missed the road. […]
Little Luxuries on the Road
I packed three things with me on the road to make me feel more…I don’t know? Girly? Less gross? Young? Sometimes I just feel so over the gross, sweaty, oily, dirtiness that is life on the road. A little pampering is key. When I feel this way usually my MIA, Hope in a Jar, or […]
Two Weeks in a House
As you might know we’ve been in an Air B&B in Portland Oregon for the last two weeks. This was a much needed break. After 6 months on the road we needed a bit of down time. For me the hardest part of being in Portland was doing what we needed vs what I wanted. […]
Marriage In The Airstream
When I told my friends about our trip many of them exclaimed “Wow, you’re brave. I’m not sure my marriage could handle that.” The thought never even crossed my mind until several people said something. I’m not going to paint my marriage as perfect by ANY means. But Mark and I have always gotten along […]
A Break from the Road in Portland, Oregon
We mentioned in our weekly email newsletter a few weeks back that we rented a house for two weeks in Portland, OR. We arrived on Sunday (two days ago), and we’re settling back into house life. Well, guest house life. We’re staying in a 3 bed guest house behind the main house, and the Airstream […]
Scared in an RV Park
I mentioned last week that I’m in charge of booking our campsites. I also mentioned early on our trip that I feel pretty safe in the parks we visit and the RV . I even detailed earlier this week how I go about searching for a campsite. However, last week was different, we were literally […]
Mealtime Madness
I have a fear. Ok, I have several fears. But this one rears its ugly head almost 3 times a day. I feel like my kids have forgotten their manners. Ever since Jane was born Mark and I would take her out to eat with us almost once a week. This allowed me a break […]
