Currently writing this from Cedar Hill State Park in Cedar Hill, Texas. We have been here almost a week now after a few days in McKinney Falls State Park in Austin.

It’s been 3 months already?
It’s a week early but it really is almost the end of our 3 months here in Choke Canyon State Park. Michael and I have been together a bit over 2 years now and from the beginning we’ve always felt like we’ve known each other much longer than we really have (in the good wayContinue reading “It’s been 3 months already?”
Never A Dull Moment
Friday morning and we were rounding in to the final few weeks at our Park Host Job in Choke Canyon State Park. We woke to drizzle coming down and had a moment of panic to get our internet hotspot into the RV. Normally we store the hotspot inside however something about the internet connectivity inContinue reading “Never A Dull Moment”
New Name, Same People
So, we’ve decided to merge some things together. As we’ve merged our life together more it made sense to us to merge these Blog posts with our GnomadicLife Facebook and Twitter accounts (we’ll be starting an Instagram account this week as well). If you haven’t followed us on those sites the links will all beContinue reading “New Name, Same People”
Finding Our Rhythm
It’s been an adjustment for us having Michael working really early 4 days a week – while I’ve been working since October I don’t start until 8 am but he’s up Friday – Monday to work 6 – 12 noon. We’ve been finding our way in navigating spending time together – when it was justContinue reading “Finding Our Rhythm”
At Home In The Woods

It was an a stressful time getting to this point but so exciting to finally be there. As we were getting thingsContinue reading “Full Time and New Adventures”
Favorite Camping Gadgets
This week camping in the extreme heat has had me thinking about the way we cook especially in the RV. Earlier this week Michael was grilling chicken wings outside on the propane grill and I was using the stove inside to saute zucchini and squash as a side dish. We have a thermometer in theContinue reading “Favorite Camping Gadgets”
A Taste of Full Time RV Living
When we started the trip to get meds and go to New Mexico we didn’t have any idea how long we’ll be on the road for this time. Our trips have been getting progressively longer and this trip is no exception. I’ve mentioned when we were coming here that we had decided to stay hereContinue reading “A Taste of Full Time RV Living”
Holidays, Rental RV, We Missed Our Own
We had hopes to spend Thanksgiving in Oklahoma with family however, due to the accident we were still not sure what was going to happen with our beloved home on wheels. Because we were not at fault the young man’s insurance company agreed to pay for a rental RV so we didn’t lose out onContinue reading “Holidays, Rental RV, We Missed Our Own”
