Finding Campsites & Places to Stay

February 25, 2017April 3, 20173 Comments

We've logged just over 11,000 miles in our bus now. It's been a heck of a ride, and one that we can't wait to continue. When we first set out on our journey, we weren't quite sure how to find campsites and places to stay in our bus. We've since found a wealth of online … Continue reading Finding Campsites & Places to Stay

So, You Want to Buy A Bus

February 22, 2017April 3, 201723 Comments

Since we started this bus adventure we've occasionally heard from folks who are interested in doing something similar but aren't necessarily sure where to start. Converting a bus into a comfortable tiny home on wheels is a lot of fun, but be warned, it's also a LOT of work. We're not experts, but we have … Continue reading So, You Want to Buy A Bus

Traveling with Pets

February 15, 2017November 15, 20208 Comments

Traveling with two cats and a dog is takes some extra effort to maintain their welfare on the road. Below, we'll address some of the most common questions we get: Why did you decide to take your pets? Our pets had already been a part of our lives for years when we decided to build … Continue reading Traveling with Pets

Travelogue: City of Rocks, NM

February 6, 20173 Comments

Our original intentions in visiting New Mexico were to spend time in Santa Fe & Albuquerque, but January didn't exactly bring the best weather to the northern half of the state. Instead, we opted to spend some time in the southwestern corner in an effort to bypass some of the worst winter weather. We Built … Continue reading Travelogue: City of Rocks, NM

Travelogue: White Sands, NM

January 31, 2017February 6, 20172 Comments

Visiting White Sands National Monument was at the top of our list of things to do while in southern New Mexico. It's such an incredible, ethereally beautiful landscape and we couldn't wait to take our bus there! Oliver Lee & Frenchy We decided to stay at Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, located about 20 miles … Continue reading Travelogue: White Sands, NM

Video Tour of Our Bus

Right after we first moved onto our bus we made a video tour. We've made a few upgrades since this was originally published, but it will give you a sense of the interior.  

Travelogue: Guadalupe Mountains National Park

January 21, 2017January 21, 20172 Comments

New Year New View With 2017 on the horizon, we decided to put Texas in the rear view mirror and head west - but not without first visiting Guadalupe Mountains National Park. Texas isn't exactly known for  mountain vistas, so it's excusable that you might make the mistake of discounting its potential for alpine hiking … Continue reading Travelogue: Guadalupe Mountains National Park

Travelogue: November & December

January 21, 2017February 20, 20173 Comments

In addition to visiting the Outer Banks,  both Ryan and I had wanted to visit North Carolina in order to see members of our extended families that reside in the Tarheel state. We each have cousins that live in Raleigh and Charlotte so we decided to make stops in each city to visit them. Driving … Continue reading Travelogue: November & December

Travelogue: Outer Banks, NC

October 28, 2016March 9, 20172 Comments

With the arrival of autumn rapidly settling in across the northeast, Ryan and I hightailed it down the coast to North Carolina where we hoped to stave off the cooler weather for a few weeks more. Visiting the Outer Banks (OBX) hot on the heels of Hurricane Matthew meant we wouldn't be seeing it at … Continue reading Travelogue: Outer Banks, NC

Travelogue: Shenandoah Valley, Virginia

Photographing the Shenandoah Valley has been on my bucket list for some time now, so we we made it a priority to visit the area on our way south from Pennsylvania. We weren't able to snag a campsite in the national park, but were able to reserve a site in the adjacent Shenandoah River State … Continue reading Travelogue: Shenandoah Valley, Virginia
