What a great week we had celebrating Eric’s graduation from Villanova. We took the time to visit a few more great places while in the northeast besides Philadelphia where Villanova University is located. We also took in New York City, Cape Cod, Nantucket, and Boston all in our 9 day trip, and can I just say…wow! First of all, the campus…

Busy, Busy, Busy….
We have owned TechnoRv for about 3 weeks and what a learning experience. We find ourselves up most nights until midnight working with the operations of the business. This is just the learning curve and it will not be like this forever, but for now, it is pretty intense. We are learning all of the products, while taking internet order,…
Lincoln is NOT made for camping in the woods!
Poor Lincoln is having a full-blown allergic reaction to living in the woods! We came home a week ago and realized he had a little bald spot on his back. Not a huge deal, but I was a little baffled as to what caused it. Out of convenience, Eric had bought him some crappy dog food from the grocery store…
A New Chapter-We Bought a Business!
Over a year ago, Tami and I were having conversations about what we wanted to do with our lives. You can read through this blog to get the details, but the short version is we wanted to travel the United States and see everything our country has to offer. Getting from that conversation to making it happen has taken a…
The American Dream?
I suppose everyone has their own version of what the American dream is. For us it has taken many forms over the years, but one thing that has always stuck with us is the idea of traveling the United States.

The Countdown
I refer to the countdown as the amount of time left before Tami and I quit our jobs and travel fulltime. The clock sits at about 18 months. The two boys will graduate from college in May 2016 and Ally will graduate high school in May 2016 too. All the kids want to take a family vacation to celebrate (their…
Mind over Matter
When I graduated with my masters degree almost 7 years ago, I wanted to get scuba certified as a way to celebrate. I was 33 years old and Eric and I had been married for 3 years. The week I graduated was the literally the same week Steve Irwin died from a stingray injury while diving. Talk about a…
Tami got Scuba Certified – Congratulations!
Tami got her scuba certification over the Christmas holidays, 2014. Tami started her certification over a year and a half ago, and had some issues along the way. Tami had some underwater anxiety issues that delayed the process, and then got a few sinus infections along the way too. During one training session Tami got water in her mask and…
Christmas in a RV, No Problem.
Having Christmas in a RV certainly requires some organization and thoughtful planning. First the Christmas tree. If you have one at all then it needs to take up minimal space. we bought a stick of a tree that stood about 2 feet tall. This tree fit nicely on the booth table. When it came to presents we had to wait…
