I’m honored to be chosen once again as a presenter for both the RTR and WRTR this season. Here are my dates for the WRTR:
Monday Happy Hour (3-4 PM)
- CALM, SMART & AWARE: Solo Woman Nomad Safety With A Twist
Tuesday Happy Hour (3-4 PM)
- SEVERE WEATHER FOR NOMADS: Staying Safe on the Road
Wednesday Happy Hour (3-4 PM)
- STORM SIGNALS: A Beginner’s Guide to Deciphering Doppler Radar
I’m not sure yet about my RTR dates and times, but here are the two sessions I’ll be presenting:
- Creative & Emotional Survival for Nomads: Staying Grounded, Focused and Resilient on the Road
- Storm Safety for Nomads: A 5-Minute Decision System That Saves Lives
Really looking forward to giving these presentations! All but one are brand new, and the older one (Severe Weather) will be updated.

’Tis The Season…For Fire.
Few will argue that a blazing campfire at the end of the day really makes it cozy and fun. But one place no one wants to deal with fire is INSIDE your rig. Regardless what size or type RV you live in, and for however long/often, fire is one element you want to stay far away from…at least the open, uncontrolled kind.
Disaster Preparedness In An RV – Part 3
Now that we’ve covered potential disaster scenarios and the documents and first aid kits you should have with you, this last entry in this Disaster Preparedness in an RV series will cover how to put together a Go Bag or Bug-Out Bag.
Disaster Preparedness In An RV – Part 2
This week’s entry deals with appropriate responses and the kind of supplies an RVer should carry to be ready for potential disasters on the road. Since this is a blog about fulltime RV life, that’s the approach I’m writing from. But part-timers could take a page from this playbook, too.
