Building sandcastles isn’t the only way to play with sand. You’ve just got to think out of the…sand box. I know. Corny joke. But seriously, I received a new toy to play with review, an Ultimate Sandbag. And it’s effective. And it’s fun. I haven’t had this much fun playing with sand since I was […]

Remember the 30 day paleo challenge I was doing? That’s okay. Neither do I. Here is  our adventures in eating local while on the road plus a recap of my 30 day paleo challenge and the aftermath. It’s been fun finding local food. We’ve been to farmers markets and farm stands from Maine to Indiana. […]

Since hitting the road fulltime in our RV last fall, I’ve managed to keep working out. However, it’s been hard to consistently find a place to do pull ups and over time I “lost” them.  But now I’m prepared to “find” them again with my new free standing portable pull up bar from Trapeze Rigging. […]

We’ve been having a ton of fun visiting with my family. I just love being here and wish so much Indiana had mountains and an ocean like California. It’s hard living far away from family but now we live in an RV we regularly get to see friends and family all over the country. Being with […]

Hope you had a great weekend. We celebrated my grandparent’s 60th wedding anniversary. The week before we celebrated my other set of grandparent’s 60th wedding anniversary as well.  I’m so grateful to not only have all four of my grandparents still with us but to have such wonderful examples of loving marriages in  my life. Here […]

I did it. I finally bought the shoes that look like feet. Vibram Five Fingers Or sometimes known as frog shoes. Or just shoes that look like feet. I’ve been working out barefoot for over three years now. When I can’t workout barefoot,  I wear a thin soled shoe like Converse or my New Balance […]

I have three thoughts this Thursday. Life is Like Berries. A Healthy Dessert. 30 Days of Paleo    Thought One – Life is Like Berries. Two weeks ago after a busy week in NYC followed by a fulltime family RV rally, we decided we needed a few days up in the mountains to unwind. Nearby there was […]

I’ve said this many times but I was spoiled in my hometown of Ventura ,California with multiple year round CSAs to choose from, raw milk from the local health food store, an Azure Standard drop off site, two Trader Joes within 4 miles of my house, and friends who could connect me to groups for […]

I hope you had a good Memorial Day weekend. I had a sincere paradigm shift this weekend. Before this weekend, I’ve never really connected to the meaning of Memorial Day. Fortunately, I’ve never lost a loved one due to the horrors of war. I’m ashamed to admit but before this weekend Memorial day was more […]

I haven’t been honest with myself. The other day while on a walk with one of my sons, I saw a long stretch of green grass stretching through the empty campground. Sprints? But… Well… Okay. Late that afternoon, before the mosquitoes came out, Brent and I walked over to the empty length of lawn. I […]
