Choosing an RV to become your full-time home is a very personal decision and process. But if you’re reading this, you’re probably like us - eager to live outside the norms of stationary society, and even of the traditional RV community. My goal with this post is to help get you get started with some key questions about road life and lead you to ask yourself specific, tailored questions.
Read MoreA lot of questions come up when people find out we live on the road in 200 sq. ft. with two dogs. Below are answers to some of those questions.
Read MoreThe dunes at White Sands National Monument aren’t formidable. They don’t cause a quick gasp of breath the way Great Sand Dunes National Park do. But they are one of our favorite places that we have visited.
Read MorePhotos can't capture what it feels like to stand hundreds of feet underground looking at the most implausible things you’ve probably ever seen in real life. Put Carlsbad Caverns National Park on your list of parks to visit!
Read MoreLiving on the road with Tybee and Tyki is pretty much as easy as it was in a house. But there are few things that makes it difficult at times. Read on to find out what they are.
Read MoreReminiscing our life together. How do I say goodbye?
Read MoreThis list is obviously my opinion of the 11 must-haves for Tybee and Tyki. If you ask them it would more likely be 4 items: food, us, comfortable place to sleep, and a sweet place to play/chill. But the items listed in this post are things that have made our life on the road with them easier.
Read MoreI remember my first national park: it was Big Bend National Park and I was a junior in college. It was the beginning of my lifelong passion for the outdoors. But years later, national parks and I have a love/hate relationship.
Read MoreRoad life means we’re continuously on the go and rarely in the same place twice. This can get tricky when you have pets, especially an older dog. Here are our tips for handling Tybee and Tyki’s vet visits.
Read MoreI was super excited to go back to Banff National Park. The first time Jerud and I visited was in 2010 and we had an absolute blast. It’s a trip we still talk about to this day. While there we fell in love with the area, so much that during a conversation with locals we met on a trail we asked about the job market in the area.
Read MoreWe don’t write a lot about the personal aspects of living in an RV and on the road: How do we actually feel about it? How is it living in a small space with each other, Tybee and Tyki? But it’s time. It’s time to move beyond the glacial peaks, turquoise lakes, wildflower filled single track, and moon-like red rocks. There’s more to our lives and living on the road than that.
Read MoreThis story took place last summer in Montana, where we’re currently at. I was reminded of our trip to Morrell Falls in Lolo National Forest as we drove past the sign for the trail on our way to paddle Lake Alva last weekend.
Read MoreEvery year we fly out west somewhere to go snowboarding. The last two winters the annual trips didn’t happen because we were rebuilding the Toaster. But this year we made it happen. It’s Andrew second winter in Jackson and we decided to meet there.
Read MoreOur main reason for going to Mittry Lake Wildlife Area in Yuma, Arizona was so Tybee could go swimming. While we were in Borrego Springs, we had a conversation with a vet about Tybee that left us frazzled, sad and more aware of the potentially limited amount of time we have with her.
Read MoreWe made a dog bed platform in the back of our truck so the dogs could comfortably lay there and we wouldn’t lose storage space the back seats could provide.
Read MoreHappy birthday to my sweetest girl! Celebrating 13 years of playing splash, jumping off docks, mountain biking through rhodo tunnels...
Read MoreGoing through my photos to pull some together for a post I was going to work on, I came across pictures from the first trip we took the Alpacka Raft on. I realized that I never wrote a post about it. From the title of this post you can guess how it went, but I encourage you to keep reading because you may learn a thing or two from our mistakes. If not, no worries, we’ll read this and be reminded to not make the same mistakes again!
Read MoreThis is a travel recap of the Blackfoot River and lakes that are so worth the visit when you’re going through Montana.
