“There was nowhere to go but everywhere…” – Jack Kerouac
I’m not sure that anyone has ever devised a plan for their future that unfolded as they thought it would.
Since August, Katy and I have lived full-time in an RV Park in Texas and it often comes as a surprise to many when we say that we like it. Obviously, this is not a life of glamour. There are some challenges. But after years of renting apartments, living at…
Living in a tiny house is all about managing clutter. It’s like a never ending battle to keep the place tidy. Mike and I have been having to renegotiate how we store everything because so many things are not working out the way that we had planned and anticipated now…
This past Wednesday was Finn’s 2nd birthday and the one year anniversary of his adoption. He celebrated by rolling in very liquidy poop on his morning walk. It was super gross and he was so satisfied with himself. Ew. (Don’t worry- he got a birthday bath.) Over the course of…
When Mike and I planned (to the best of our abilities) for the things that we thought would be the most difficult aspects of living in the bus we were mainly anticipating an issue with electricity. We had originally planned to go with solar straight out the gate until we…
The bus is like a never-ending, constantly evolving project. We’ve had a month off from bus projects but it’s time to get back to work!

Just like in any vehicle in motion, sitting down and remaining well bukled is the safest way to travel. But many people have asked us if it’s possible to walk around the bus while its in motion. The answer is yes and it is quite nice, specially with the windows…
“I was ready to get on the road. For my first solo road trip. Which was scary and exciting all at the same time. I’m about to be 30, it’s a little sad that I had never driven anywhere more than a hour or two away by myself. Mike has done a load of solo road trips- he’s gone north to New York and all the way west to California among other places. I was looking forward to 2 days all to myself.”
I have a 2013 Honda Fit. It was the first car I ever purchased (all on my little lonesome) and the first new car I’ve ever owned. I love it. When we moved from Florida to Texas we were originally planning on towing the Honda with us. However, we weren’t…
