If there's one thing I've actually, finally learned in my 5+ decades of life it's that big changes of any kind very often take longer than we'd like. After we told everyone our plan to live in an RV and go wherever, people constantly asked when we were going to leave. It was a source… Continue reading RV Life, Phase One: The comfort zone
Friend and fellow RVer Liz Wilcox invited me over to The Virtual Campground to share about some of the tradeoffs we made when we made the move to RV life. It's lighthearted food for thought for any aspiring RVer or, if you're an experienced RVer, a good laugh about things you're trying not to miss.
John Lee takes over the blog and tries to make sense of what his humans have done.
An e-mail here, a phone call there and BOOM – we sold the house and found a cool place to land. We're not leading a charmed life (because #RV), but it feels damn close.
Ten days away from home, eight of them in the company of some 250 RV entrepreneurs. 2,000 miles out and back.

While Brian and our Greyhound John Lee crashed in the master bedroom as usual, I pitched a tent, threw in my… Continue reading I slept in the backyard last night
About six weeks from now, I'll arrive in Fredericksburg, Texas for my first tent camping trip in decades. The last time I camped, my oldest was in diapers. She's now the parent of a middle schooler, if that tells you anything 😯 Suffice it to say, I was lacking in the gear department when I… Continue reading Need cheaper gear? Got Bitcoin to spend?

It's cute how he tries to boss me around. Never works. Since he's concerned about the… Continue reading Where I’ve been
