Gone Fishing – 2 Decades Ago I Took a Little Fishing Trip…

November 26, 2017 / Marshall / 6 Comments

July/August/September 1997 (no, that’s not a typo)

Now for something completely different. A look into past Marshall’s life. Something totally unrelated to what I am currently doing, or who I currently am. Continue reading →

Introducing Camp Addict – A New Kind of RVing Website

May 30, 2017May 30, 2017 / Marshall / 2 Comments

I’ve been quiet for the past couple of months on my blog, for good reason. Kelly and I have been working very hard on a new project. One that we are super proud about. But I’m getting ahead of myself. Continue reading →

I’m Not Quitting My Day Job to Become a Model

January 16, 2017January 16, 2017 / Marshall / 2 Comments

The morning of Kelly’s departure from the 2017 New Years gathering we had a photoshoot. Not because we are aspiring models, but rather because we needed some better pictures for our kick-ass website. Continue reading →

Trying to Put Bread on the Table

December 8, 2016December 8, 2016 / Marshall / 7 Comments

I just wanted to bring you up to speed on what I’ve been doing as of late. I (obviously) haven’t been writing blog posts, which means I’m way behind. Again. I’ve been busy working on a new income generating project. One that I’m going to ask for your help with at the end of this post (thank you in advance!). Continue reading →

Playing Catch-Up

December 3, 2015December 4, 2015 / Marshall / 8 Comments

I’m behind in my blog and I don’t seem to be able to catch-up to the current time. This bothers me. It’s an albatross around my neck which I don’t like. Currently I am three and one-half months behind and I don’t seem to be able to close this gap. Continue reading →

Being out in the middle of nowhere means different thing to different people. To some it may mean just being outside of town. To others it means being in the middle of West Texas. One thing I think we can all agree on is driving 180 miles to pick up a package means you are pretty close to being in the middle of nowhere. That’s was yesterday’s “journey”. Tonight’s was by being joined by good friends Jen and Jesse ( @ontherogueus ) to watch the sunset from the dunes. I’m still in the middle of nowhere but I’m no longer by myself. 🤓

The other night I didn’t sleep well (shocker for those that know how “well” I sleep 🙄). Couldn’t concentrate at work so after a short conversation with my boss, I took the day off and played tourist. Ended up at this gem of a find off Route 66. Hiked to the top, walked the rim, contemplated the fate of the Universe. Ok, did 2 of the 3.

Other than a couple of in-transit overnighters, I haven't camped alone since June 2018. This week I'm getting some 'me' time after spending a few weeks being uber-social in the Las Vegas area. Looking forward to some solitude before getting back at it next week for a nomadic Friendsgiving get together. In the meantime, I'll be right here. A 'new to me' place that so far is proving to be the right choice.

I don't think I've dealt with an iced up vehicle since I was a teenager. So, yeah, it's been a while. . One of the advantages of having a house on wheels is that you don't have to deal with this stuff unless it turns you on. It definitely doesn't do anything for me, but I'm unable to head south quite yet. Soon. Very, very soon. . What sign do you take it's time to move to warmer weather? Or are you one of those people that enjoys cold, biting wind and iced up vehicles?

The great thing about this lifestyle is choices. Some people like the space of a large rig. Some people, like myself, are looking to downsize to a small, nimble rig that can fit just about anywhere. . Another cool thing about this lifestyle is learning how little one really needs in terms of material possessions. I have far less now then when I first launched in 2014. But not everyone does well with so little. For some it’s an ongoing quest to figure out where to stash all the things. . This is a new one for me. Never have I seen a coffin storage unit on top of a fifth wheel. A rig that has massive amounts of basement and interior storage compared to what I have. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The things you find while traveling across the country. This one was an unexpected surprise directly across the street from the overnight spot. You Millennials probably don’t have a clue who he is/was. 😯😬🤷🏻‍♂️
