We were traveling through Southern Vermont when we were invited to hang out around the campfire with some VW Bus area celebrities. Check out this unedited literal fireside chat with these folks.

Cedar Key
After my post lamenting the tourism of Key West, our Miami driveway host, a VW guru named Ian, told us that we would find old Florida at Cedar Key. I wasn’t exactly sure if Old Florida really existed or not and I felt a little like Ponce De Leon chasing after a mythical place whileContinue reading “Cedar Key”
Podcast: Tracy Carlucci
We sat down with a brand new bus owner, Tracy Carlucci, while we were visiting Connecticut this past September. Even though she has a brand new old bus, it’s been a long road getting here.
Illness on the road
Vanlife is not what AAA would have you believe. Sure the ads they post on Facebook with the shirtless guy and the woman who is always inexplicably holding on to her big, floppy hat make it look like something from a glamor shoot. They drink coffee from mugs and he has a little teak trayContinue reading “Illness on the road”
Key West in review
Miracle and I both wanted to be in Key West on our 1-year anniversary. We imagined sitting on a beach eating key lime pie and sipping champagne while the waves rolled in and out. Miracle had read about Key West via Martha Gellhorn’s letters. (Gellhorn, for what it is worth is twice the badass HemingwayContinue reading “Key West in review”
Missing snow
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: Nate
We were returning to Ohio from our shakedown trip to Michigan this past July so we used VanAlert to find a place to stay and we found Nate’s driveway. It turns out Nate’s driveway was a bit more posh than we expected. He asked us to drive around back where he had an honest toContinue reading “Podcast: Nate”
Happy anniversary
A year ago, Miracle and I stood outside with a few close friends and family to exchange vows. We both improvised what we said, but the stories we recalled were of the same stripe—our travels.
Springs n things
We got into Florida nearly a week ago and have now made it mostly to the south end. Man, it is a long, busy state. Before we left Ohio, Miracle said she wanted to swim in as many bodies of water as possible—tide pools, oceans, rivers, lakes, and springs. So far in Florida, we’ve managedContinue reading “Springs n things”
Christmas in Oz
Our life on the road is a charmed one. That is probably mostly Miracle’s handiwork. She has a way of asking for things, of finding things and stumbling on good luck like no one I have ever met. It was one of many hundreds of reasons I knew I wanted to spend my time withContinue reading “Christmas in Oz”
