The closer we get to getting our RV and hitting the road, the more restless and anxious I become. We are now just a few weeks from our goal. You would think that I would be motivated and overjoyed, but that isn't how my unruly brain works. It might be better if this whole thing... Continue Reading →
Will the RV, Van Life and Tiny House Movement Become a Fad?
RV living and the tiny house movement have been gaining momentum over the past couple of years. I know that I simply cannot believe the number of bloggers and YouTubers alike that have made the decision to live small. And in the case of an RV or van, live on the move. When I first...

RV Living: Consider the Cost
As many of you already know (I talk about it constantly right?) my family is buying an RV in a couple of months and moving to Washington state. Well, before we made this difficult decision we had to weigh the cost. Is it really cheaper to live in an RV vs a house? I mean... Continue Reading →

Homesteading
In my research about alternatives lifestyles, homesteading popped up quite frequently. I have to admit, it sounded amazing! It sounds like freedom from an oppressive, materialistic society. Living off-grid and growing what you eat. Completely self-sufficient. And there is a law that protects homesteads from forced sale for collection of debt. That is true ownership,...

I Love Fall!
Ya'll, fall has finally made it North Texas! The cold kills my bad back but I love the changes in the trees and the quiet rain. It really makes me want to curl up with a book. What does this have to do with traveling or RV's? Nothing. I just wanted to share my happiness!... Continue Reading →
Why an RV?
There are so many choices when considering escaping the rat race and downsizing. I have gone over and over them over the last year. I seriously thought about choosing a tiny home. Thought for a second about a homestead (it was a quick second, I am way too lazy ;). I kept coming back to... Continue Reading →
