My mom was always anti-junk food. “Don’t buy it and the kids won’t eat it”- wise words from our pediatrician growing up. I’d like to think I’m better than the average Joe at what my kids eat. Sure, it would be super easy to throw them a bag of cheese-its or stop at a gas […]
The Everyday WOW Factor
How Do We Deal With The Everyday Wow Factor? I was posed this question by one of my very old friends the other day. He asked me if I was ever becoming numb at all to the beauty we are seeing every day? I stopped to think about this for a few days. I’m still […]
Alone Time
Many of my friends have asked me when and how I get “alone time”. I know this is more important to some people than it is to others. Before our trip I worked from home a couple days a week and drove to client sites, some 3 hours away, the other days of the week. […]
The Cards We Carry for Discounts While We Travel
Each month we’re sharing how much it costs to RV around America, breaking down expenses across categories as we try to spend within our projected budget. There are a few ways that we try to save money while we travel and manage risk. We have all sorts of insurance, of course, but we also opted […]
Dealing with Diapers
Diapers probably aren’t something you think about when you think about our travels, but we have to think about them all the time. Diapers are a big part of our little Airstream and adventure life. Buying Diapers and Wipes We have to stock a lot of diapers and wipes while we travel, as many of […]

How Are the Kids Doing?
We get asked this often, mostly by grandparents and concerned family members, but there have been some general questions sent our way as to how the kids are adjusting to our trip. My answer? Pretty well! Sure Wilson has cut six teeth with two more on the way since we left three months ago. That’s […]
I Got a Speeding Ticket
I once wrote that I lived in the slow lane when driving the Airstream. That’s still true. But it turns out that without the trailer, I’m still the aggressive driver I always was. After a little over 11,000 miles driving America’s highways, I got a speeding ticket. I got nabbed crossing the border in Colorado […]
Playground Moms, Your Personal Travel Agents.
Last Sunday I was wandering the isles of the “general store” outside of Capitol Reef National Park. We had no more fresh vegetables or fruit in the RV. Despite checking Yelp and TripAdvisor I had come up empty handed other than this general store for groceries. I grabbed some limp asparagus and asked the owner […]
How I left my job and got a part-time job for the adventure (Part I)
While we’re traveling around the country by RV, I’m working remotely, about ten hours a week, for the company for which I worked full-time before I left. The ability to work remotely part-time has been a real privilege. Not only does the work bring in some money to cover the burn, but also it helps […]
