As I scrolled through Facebook (a time suck, I know), I saw so many pictures of familiar locales and people I know who are lucky enough to have gotten a little bit of snow. Both Miracle and I love snow. I mean we really love the snow—long hikes in it, driving in it. Whenever weContinue reading “Missing snow”

Podcast: John’s Car Corner
We heard about John’s Car Corner from folks all the way from Connecticut through Rhode Island and up through Massachusetts. Everyone said you need to stop at John’s Car Corner and talk to John. They were right. Soon we were standing in the shop itself, just outside of Westminster, Vermont—it a mix of parts store,Continue reading “Podcast: John’s Car Corner”

Boosted
Florida for the holidays has its charms and drawbacks. Of course we are missing our family and friends as we live out here on the road. And the weather is decidedly unChristmasy. That’s great at night when we want to sleep without the hum of the parking heater, but the juxtaposition of wreaths and lightsContinue reading “Boosted”
Podcast: Ken
We interviewed Ken, the owner of a mutt bus in Massachusetts, inside of his actual bus. It’s an impressive creation where functionality and self-reliance rule. Even cooler—Ken is a bus muralist. See his work on Instagram.

It’s been an incredible week and hereContinue reading “North Carolina in review”
Podcast: David
We had been staying in David’s driveway as we ventured toward Salem, Massachusetts. Even though he insisted he didn’t need to be interviewed, we decided otherwise. Over the breakfast he prepared for us, we had a little conversation with him about his time driving VWs.
How to make coffee
Few things in life are as essential as coffee—maybe water and oxygen (both ingredients needed to make coffee by the way). Since being on the road, we’ve tried a variety of coffee brewing techniques before settling on Aeropress our morning joe. In this post I will outline the various methods and their pratfalls.
Podcast: Jerry
Before we left on our 49 state tour in our bus, Adie, we met up with Jerry Shields, at a local coffee shop. He’s a man with an appreciation for the finer things in life. Just take a look at his bus, Velma (more pics on Instagram). She’s a keeper.
