Since 2020 we’ve been full-time nomads. We spend part of the year roaming the mountain west in our 21′ travel trailer and the other part overlanding in Mexico in our truck camper. These are stories from our everyday life on the road.
Our plates are full at the moment. Overflowing, in fact. Every morning I get up, look at my task manager, and determine with optimism what I hopefully can tackle and cross off for the day. At the moment, I feel like we’re barely keeping up. And so last week I turned down the opportunity to head a few hours east to camp with some of our closest friends. Seven of us, from opposite corners of...
Welcome back to Notes From The Road, a monthly recap of where we’ve been and what we’ve been up to over the last 30 days. And just like that, it’s July. June was a weird and busy month for us. Typically we would hook up our travel trailer and head into Colorado’s high country at the start of June to position ourselves closer to where our work commitments take place. This...
May is a transition month for us. It’s a time when we work to tame our wanderlust while simultaneously preparing for our business’s busy season. For me, that looks like a lot of time at my desk tending to administrative tasks and connecting with our couples to finalize their wedding day details. For Mark, that means tending to maintenance on our vehicles and getting our RV back...
Hello and happy May! April can be a really unpredictable month for us on the road. It’s when we begin making our way back to Colorado, but the weather largely dictates our route and the speed at which we do so. We tend to take it a day at a time, letting the forecast decide if we need to hang longer in the desert (because it’s still cold in Colorado), haul butt to Colorado (because it’s getting...
A month ago, I never would have guessed we’d be where we are now, tucked into a forest high in the mountains in Arizona. If you read the February edition of Notes From The Road, then you know our re-entry into truck camper living got off to a rocky start. I was seven weeks post-op from major surgery at the time, and my body wasn’t quite ready for the pace of life on the road. However, that all...
Hello everyone! As many of you know, our unconventional lifestyle is rooted in intentionality. Mark and I have long had a tendency to make choices that may go against the grain but instead align with our core values for a life well-lived. In that spirit, I’ve been doing some “digital decluttering” the last few months. While I love sharing the ins and outs of our life on the road...
After a short but sweet two-week stay in Baja, we decided to head back to the States. My body was telling me that it needed more time to rest and recover from surgery and that adventuring down Baja’s rough and remote backroads wasn’t in the cards for me this year. Mark and I are pretty good at rolling with the punches and pivoting when our wants and needs call for it, so we embraced the two...
Welcome to Notes From The Road, a monthly recap of where we’ve been and what we’ve been up to over the last 30 days. I’m very happy to report that this edition of our monthly digest is coming to you from a beautiful beach in Baja. While we’ve spent our winters in Mexico for the last four years, 2026 got off to a very different start. The need for major surgery—which took place on the last...
2025 was a heck of a year for us. After five years of slow-moving, full-time RV living, we picked up the pace and covered more ground than ever before. Back in March, I realized we were on track to sleep in far more places than any other year, and so I began logging every campsite out of curiosity. By December 31st, we had slept in 99 different locations in 2025. If I had to guess, I’d say that’s...
Welcome to Notes From The Road, a monthly recap of where we’ve been and what we’ve been up to over the last 30 days. This edition of Notes From The Road is coming to you from an unlikely place, given that it’s December. After spending five weeks in Arizona, yesterday we returned to Colorado. As many of you know, December is typically when we head south of the border for several months of...
