Screws are often rattling loose and falling to the floor. We find one or two scattered around about each time we move to […]

Property Management While Traveling Put to the Test

May 3, 2016 by Mark Kelley 1 Comment

Well, it has happened, and it happened much sooner than I thought. One of the tenants in our rental properties back home had a legit emergency. In fact, it was the tenant in our home. The hot water heater pressure release valve spewed water all over the floor. We were fortunate that the hot water […]

My biggest pet peeve about RV life

April 19, 2016 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

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 […]

April 7, 2016 by Mark Kelley 2 Comments

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.

Life in the Slow Lane with a Beat Up Airstream

March 25, 2016 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Without towing a trailer, I drive pretty fast. I’m mostly in the left hand lane going at least ten over, pushing cars out of the way and always watching for a state trooper around the next corner. When towing the trailer, I’m much slower, for many reasons, but for one awesome reason. I no longer […]
