Amazon Clothes Haul | Overalls, Mordenmiss, and Leaf-Green Shirt Edition
Hey Snugbugs! This week I'm coming at you with a bit-out-of-left-field post for me. I had planned on sharing some insight into how it's been working traveling with Peppermint the basset hound, but it was about 12 degrees and windy up here in northern Minnesota where...
Two Weeks in Washington’s Olympic Peninsula in Our Honda Odyssey Minivan Camper
We're in northern Minnesota, enjoying the fall color on lovely Lake Vermillion (my 'hometown') but have been thinking fondly of our swing through Oregon and Washington in August. While we fell in love with the Oregon coast, we also thought Washington was...
My Vanlife Minimalist Wardrobe
So Jeff and I have been camped out at my mom’s house in northern Minnesota for the last few days, which means that after six months on the road, it’s time to take stock of my vanlife semi-minimalist (by necessity) wardrobe. Long time readers will know how...
Top 8 Things Learned After Six Months Living on the Road with a Man and Basset in a Minivan.
It’s September and Jeff and I are heading back east, having recently celebrated an important #vanlife milestone… August 22, 2018, was our six-month anniversary of heading out to live on the road in our converted Honda Odyssey mini-campervan (take a tour!).
Since we ventured out, we’ve definitely learned a few lessons. We’ve relaxed on a few non-negotiables (see also: how much dust on one basset hound am I capable of overlooking?) And we’ve probably gotten more uptight on a few topics that used to be taken for granted (how much drinkable water and usable wet wipes are on hand come to mind).
The Happiness Project
These days, I have a super-awesome life that I really didn’t plan for, but love anyway. And yet… something feels off. I live full-time on the road — this morning I woke up at 10,000 feet to a mountain meadow filled with lupine and a fantastic view. I have work that’s...
Ocean Pond Campground in Florida’s Osceola National Forest
Just about a month into our adventure living nowhere, we headed to Ocean Pond campground in Florida's Osceola National Forest. This was a fun destination for us as it's only 15 miles or so from Lake City, Florida, where Jeff went to college 30 years ago....
How Much Our Van Build and Vanlife Cost
Yesterday, Jeff and I were tickled to scroll through Facebook and see that a recent photo we had taken of our Honda Odyssey set up with our canopy had been chosen as the header image in a minivan camper group that we are in on Facebook. Scrolling through...
Fore Lake Campground in the Ocala National Forest
Jeff, Peppermint and I kicked off our life on the road in the Ocala National Forest in Florida. It was a fun place to start out since Jeff hung out there when he was a kid. Our first stop was at Hopkins Prarie Campground (check out my review here), which was lovely,...
Hopkins Prairie Campground in the Ocala National Forest
Hello, fellow alligator seekers. Jeff and I are settling into a new area today. We’ve picked out a campsite, staked our claim — it’s a waterfront site, ya’ll! — and are now heading to the closest town for supplies. So before the dust settles and I can’t remember where...
Becoming Self-Employed… How I Got Here – Part One
Hey Snugbuggles! Since we decided to head out to live in our van last fall, I've spent an inordinate amount of time in #vanlife Facebook Groups, Instagram Pages, and YouTube channels. There are a few questions that get asked over... and over... and over... One of the...
