Many of the folks who hear our story assume that we are somehow financially set, that we have the money to traipse about the country living off savings or other residual income not tied to daily involvement. You might be surprised to discover that our finances are likely not very different from yours. We are…
I’ve often heard that the best camera is the one you have with you. I don’t know about you, but I pretty much always have my phone with me. Whether I’m out on a walk with the kids, at a beach, or just hanging out in the Airstream its usually in my pocket or close…
I have a smoothie obsession. I love them. Green smoothies usually, but most of the time they end up puke brown and I still guzzle them. So do my kids. When the time came to pack the van for the trip out to Virginia (pre-Airstream) the Blendtec didn’t make the cut. There just wasn’t room…

Our Thanksgiving tradition is to create a “Thankful Tree”. Usually this involves a cardboard tree cutout, lots of tape, and the kitchen wall in our home in Lehi. Even though we are not in a normal house this year, we really wanted to keep up this tradition and provide some continuity for our family. So…
With out realizing it that post was a great tribute to you and other working dads. This has been on my mind a lot the last several months. YOU are working to provide this life style to your family – while Jess is out doing the bike rides, museums, and library’s with the kids, you are working. Don’t get me wrong – I am a stay at home mom – it is work, but it is also NOT work. Not a lot of men are willing to work more so there wives can stay home – it is a great gift you give your wife and kids. Thank you.
Thanks Jamie! Yes, what you said is totally true. I’m so grateful for all he does for us!
This wasn’t even on my radar before . . . but just maybe. We would love to do something like this. Someday, or soon!
So Sam,you mentioned your headphones but failed to share what you considered to be a really nice set. I’m currently looking into getting another set myself as my current ones hurt after barely an hour. your experience using headphones that are comfortable for hours would be interesting to hear. maybe another blog post when time permits…or a response here?
Longer answer later, but short answer now: I have the AKG Pro Audio K271 MKII headphones. Closed back, with HUGE earpieces. The large earpieces sit entirely around my ear, not pressing them into my head at all. I can wear these for hours in a stretch with no discomfort. These are not noise cancelling, but the closed back (and some music) handle quite a bit of noise.
