It’s hard to believe we are halfway through summer, but thank goodness we are because it feels like we’ve been trying to escape the 90 degree temps since February. I’m not exaggerating much. Last summer we bought a few temperature/humidity devices so we could track the temperatures in various places in this home-on-wheels. We placed […]
As Scott mentioned last week, we were looking at some properties around Lava Hot Springs (which the locals pronounce Læva (like cat) not Lava (like aww)), a cute touristy town in good location for things we want to have access to. There were two different properties on our short list, both with some views of […]
One of the things I’ve been most excited about on this trip are all the new ecosystems we get to explore! We’ve seen many through our visits to the parks, but we’ve also recently visited two other organizations. I cannot say enough about the Sonoran Desert Museum.

When we started this journey we said we’d give it a year to decide if we like this lifestyle. Neither of us had ever slept in anything other than a popup or tent so weren’t quite sure if this space would suit us. It does. We’ve made tentative plans for our next couple of years […]
We realize we haven’t posted in a while. I have a few posts started about travel days and resources, but these are long and probably boring for all of you. You all just want to know where we are and what we’ve been doing, right? The problem is that we work all week and then […]
It is now mid May. We’ve been on the road for almost two weeks. It was not quite as smooth as we thought. I mean, we knew we couldn’t possibly learn everything just by watching and reading. We have learned a lot over the past two weeks, mostly when things didn’t go as expected… Our […]
About a year ago (spring 2022), Scott and I went on a camping trip starting in Colorado and ending in Oregon. Scott wanted to book everything but I said we could just have a loose plan without booking any camp sites or hotels. He trusted me. The idea was to stop when we wanted and […]
