I know however this post comes out, it’ll never be able to fully convey our amazing stay in Sanford. How do you summarize four months into one post? We get asked all the time ‘what̵… | Continue reading
Long time followers know to brace themselves on April 1st around here – you just simply don’t trust ANYTHING my sweetie posts that day. Hopefully you got a kick out of his dream version… | Continue reading
When we first moved aboard our boat, Y-Not, we were not sure if it would be practical to keep our MINI Cooper that we’ve towed behind our vintage bus conversion Zephyr since 2011. Would it be… | Continue reading

First of all, super huge thanks for all of the insightful and supportive comments to our recent post announcing our plans to integrate in a Class-B conversion van to our nomadic fleet. We’ve … | Continue reading
First off – lets answer the obvious questions… NO – we are not looking to sell or replace our vintage bus conversion Zephyr. Nor are we looking to give up on boat life aboard Y-No… | Continue reading
We’re not interesting enough. We don’t play social media games enough. Whatever the reason – no comments = no love. And we’re tired of it. I spent 6 hours writing a blog pos… | Continue reading
First of all, happy new year! We hope it’s off to a great start. Ours has been a little rough with fighting ‘holiday crud’, a crazy workload, boat projects and multiple midge inv… | Continue reading
Year end is a great time to be a bit retrospective and to try and summarize the past 12 months of this 12th year of our nomadic life together. If you judged 2018 by our map alone, it doesn’t … | Continue reading
Wishing you and yours a joyous holiday season! For the first time in a few years, we are spending the holidays at home – instead of traveling off to visit family. We’ve been enjoying ge… | Continue reading

Our first stop after leaving Jacksonville to cruise up the St. Johns River was Doctors Lake – only 12 nautical miles up stream. We figured this would be a good short first hop to get back int… | Continue reading

With our arrival to Jacksonville, we consider this 2018 Great Loop cruising season to be a wrap. When we set off from Miami in April, we had intentions of making it to the Chesapeake by summer to e… | Continue reading
Over the years, we’ve been approached by many documentaries, realities shows and film projects to share about our nomadic lifestyle. We turn most of them down – it’s just not our … | Continue reading
We could have easily stayed in St. Augustine on our mooring ball a few more days.. perhaps even weeks. But we had an exciting rendezvous planned up in Jacksonville with dear friends. So.. we untied… | Continue reading
Hi guys.. it’s been a while since I’ve written a blog post. But I wanted to introduce you to my new best friend – I call him ‘Robot’. I like food. I like it a lot. Whe… | Continue reading
When you announce you’re shopping for a boat, I can almost promise you that within 5 seconds you’ll hear at least one of these comments: You do know what BOAT means, right? Break Out A… | Continue reading
There was no doubt that we’d be stopping in St. Augustine on our way north – it’s been a stop we’ve looked forward to for quite a while. So after a nicely balanced visit to … | Continue reading

In the days leading up to our departure from New Smyrna Beach, we hadn’t quite figured out where our next stop would be. And frankly, there’s not a lot of choices anyway. We knew St. Au… | Continue reading
A life of perpetual motion in your own home that moves is a fantastic way to explore the world around us. We’ve enjoyed nomadic travels since 2006 in several types of RV and now also a motor … | Continue reading
We arrived to New Smyrna Beach in thanks to a dinner invitation from a YouTube fan. The marina had fabulous reviews, so we had booked a week at their very reasonable rates of $7.50/ft. We figured a… | Continue reading
Our Bayliner 4788 came originally equipped with a hefty Westerbeke 12.5KW diesel generator. Like most stock boat and RV generators – it was sized so that absolutely everything on board could … | Continue reading

For years we’ve had readers and viewers ask if we had any ‘Technomadia swag’ they could purchase. We’re just not ‘swag’ sort of bloggers – we do this for F… | Continue reading
We ended up staying in Ft. Pierce just shy of 2 months to complete our projects. While we loved the city, we were itching to move on the moment the carpenter turned his last screw. Continuing to wa… | Continue reading
The Election Supervisor Chris Chambless of Clay County Florida has sought an opinion of the Florida Department of State on qualifications to be registered to vote. The summary of that interpretatio… | Continue reading
When we pulled into Ft. Pierce in early April for the MTOA Rendezvous, we were only thinking we might stick around a few weeks. But then boat projects were taken on, and at that point you might as … | Continue reading
Ok.. well, not technically. First, we didn’t buy property. We purchased a lifetime lease. Next, it’s not really a ‘house’ but an RV lot with a casita. But still, we’re… | Continue reading
I had intended to cover our entire repositioning up from Miami To Ft. Pierce in one post – after all, 125 nautical miles shouldn’t require that much content! Maybe it’s because we… | Continue reading
It feels so fricken good to be back to our cruising lifestyle! Leaving Miami was a huge milestone for us after 5 weeks ‘living on the hard’ then juggling storing the boat while we pursu… | Continue reading
It’s been a few years since we updated our list of favorite mobile apps for RVers. We just came off an extended RV trip for the winter season, and it was fun to see which apps we still love a… | Continue reading
