Introducing…My Official Theme Song
Every good road trip deserves a soundtrack. So, I decided to have a theme song for my journey.
It’s A Thing!
I’m kind of excited to share this recent article from the Washington Post, on the surge of new families and individuals opting for the full time RV life. I’ve rarely in my life been part of a trend, but this time, I am!
Massive Electrical Installation, Part 3 – Aft 12v Chargers & Battery Monitor
As I originally intended to sleep in the bottom bunk and use the top one for guests, I realized there was a need for each to have its own smartphone charging station, so I got two more of the double units, one USB and one bayonet model in a single set.
Massive Electrical Project, Part 2: Extending the 12v System
Having been out on the road a while now, I’m catching up on the remodel that got me here. After I finished with the 110v AC (alternating current) system, I turned to the 12v DC (direct current) system. This is what you may be familiar with as what you find in your...
Massive Electrical Project, Part 1: Extending the 110-Volt System

Those were some long, hot, humid days, especially working in such close quarters. But they were worth it, as both the temperature and sound-deadening qualities of the insulation have been much appreciated.
So far, so good.
I didn’t write yesterday because honestly, I was just getting myself acclimated to what it means to live out of my rig. I say “out of” rather than “in,” because when your main living space consists of a 17′ x 7′ box that offers only a not-quite-three-foot...
My Full Time RV Life: It Begins…
This Labor Day weekend—August 31 through September 3—is my very first camping in my newly remodeled travel trailer. In fact, it is my first-ever stay in an RV in my whole life.
Insulating In-Deck and Under-Seat Storage
One of the things I discovered was that underneath the front deck, behind the center bench of the U-shaped dinette, is a BUNCH of wasted space. Wasted, because it’s covered beneath a permanently affixed top surface, which I first started eyeing because that surface is clearly too thin and flimsy to support much. I realize that in regular camping concepts, it wouldn’t need to support much. But in a fulltime living situation, every single space must earn its keep.
