What does it all mean, Basil?

What does it all mean, Basil?

This is it. This will be the final post on our blog. So what has this trip meant? What are we taking away from six months on the road? Six months of being voluntarily homeless? Six months of coffee and oats, am I right!? Though more importantly lies the question: what did we learn? As I look back over all our posts the first thing that really pops out to me is how much better we got at writing the…

26 Sundays Down!

26 Sundays Down!

Well, we made it. Can you believe it, ladies and gentlemen? We’ll have a quick post here to wrap up the end of the year’s adventures, and then up next will be a post all about our thoughts and reflections from the past 6 months. This one’ll be quick as a lot of you reading are also folks that we’ve seen since we returned, so you already know some of what we’ve been up to! Last Sunday, Brian worked on…

You should go check out the cemetery.

Well family and friends, we’re getting close to the end. There is still some adventure left in this ol’ rust bucket though. Let’s give her a kick and see what falls off her underside, yeah? This last week was a bit of everything. Long bouts of driving, a very comfy few days of house lounging, and plenty of outdoor spectacles for our viewing enjoyment. When Kate left off at the end of last week’s post we had just arrived at…

24 Sundays Down…(or, Mud and Missing Monuments)

24 Sundays Down…(or, Mud and Missing Monuments)

That’s right, ladies and gentlemen. The title is not deceiving you. We have TWO SUNDAYS LEFT of our adventures. Where oh where did all that time go? In a week we’ll be home in Vegas for Christmas family fun time, and what happens the week after that remains to be seen. But instead of looking to the future, let’s get to living in the past! Brian left you last week with tales of our troublesome drive to El Paso, after…

Come get your kicks.

Come get your kicks.

Well, well, well. Welly, welly, welly. Wellity, wellity, wellity. Welcome back. How are you? Well? Us too! Picking up from where we left off – After spending the whole week with my moms, we left their house in Cedar Park a little sadder than when we arrived. It felt nice to be close to family, we’ve been missing family these past months. Having my brother there for Thanksgiving was nice too. After I dropped him off at the airport I…

22 Sundays Down… (Or, Movies & Sweetpeas & Greebees, Oh My!)

22 Sundays Down… (Or, Movies & Sweetpeas & Greebees, Oh My!)

Howdy partners! Kate here, coming to you from Cedar Park in the gigantic state of Texas. We’re moving on today, lingering just long enough to get this blog post typed up for your reading pleasure. So let’s get to it! I’m sitting at the very same table that Brian finished his blog post at last week – a very rare occurrence – at his moms’ house in Cedar Park, just outside of Round Rock and a little ways from Austin….

The rest of the week.

The rest of the week.

Well hello again all! It’s me, Brian, returning to you as normal. It felt so nice to have a guest writer handle a portion of our blog duties, and what a wonderful job she did! Thanks again Alison, and cheers to you. Also, Cheers to Alison and Bryan as a pair for joining us in New Orleans. It was such a blast to see some old friendly faces and what faces they are! So now we resume the regularly scheduled…

Don’t put your mouth on New Orleans. (Unless it’s the food.)

Don’t put your mouth on New Orleans. (Unless it’s the food.)

Hi everyone! It’s me, Alison! Wait — don’t hit that back button, you’re at the right travel blog! You might know me from Kate’s high school days or Brian’s Kate days. I’m happy to report that I actually got to see those nerds in person and that they are still the same weirdos you know and love. Though they did warn me and my paramour, also Bryan, in advance that they developed an even more symbiotic sense of humor in…

20 Sundays Down…(or, The Week of Accomplishing Last Week’s Goals)

Hello, avid followers! So great to see you here once again. It’s a pretty nice little routine we’ve got going here, don’t you think? This week’s post is coming EARLY (which is unheard of for me, as many of you know) because we have a new town to get to and some super exciting visitors to go meet on this fine Sunday! You’ll hear more about them next week. But for now… We had one last goal to accomplish in…

Two Girls for Every Boi

Two Girls for Every Boi

We arrived in Fayetteville NC to meet up with Nate and his family: his wife Rachel and their kids Kingston, Jackston, Ace and Emelia – and their tiny tiny dog Cloye, a teacup Yorkie. We had arrived just in time for dinner with them and spent a couple hours after the kids went to bed just catching up and reconnecting before Kate and I retired to the luxury of the RV and the two parents went to bed. They have…
