Traveling the United States, we’ve visited many different areas and ecosystems. Beaches, forests, swamps, and mountains are all different and provide many learning opportunities. Many of the National Park sites we’ve visited have well-stocked gift shops with relevant books about the area. One of my favorite series of books for the kids are The Cat…
Even though we’ve traveled full-time for over 2 years, there are only a few states we feel that we have thoroughly explored. Having spent almost fourteen weeks in Florida this past winter, we feel that we can officially check Florida off the list! There are few spots we missed (Shark Valley in the Everglades for…
A life with few possessions requires everything to have multiple purposes. That collapsible salad spinner? Also a bowl. And a colander. Single purpose things don’t serve us well, and are quickly dropped from our collection of gear. We have two main types of lights for our adventures.

I’d love to meet those who do a hybrid approach!ReplyCancel
We’re planning a two month cross country trip for next summer; two months seemed like an incredibly long time….until I actually started plotting everything out and trying to figure out how long we could/should stay at each stop. I guess it’s reassuring to know that even if we were traveling full time I’d be dealing with some of the same dilemmas! Excited to hear more about phase 2 🙂ReplyCancel
Its a rainy day here in Arkansas, which is a perfect day for soup! This is one of our recent favorites, although I apparently don’t make it enough. Each time I was asked what’s for dinner, and responded with, “Italian Wedding Soup”, I received an “Ooooh! Yum! I LOVE that!” comment. Cara is our pickiest…
