An old friend who may wish to remain anonymous lives in this vicinity.

Ann’s parents are getting ready to float a stretch of the Snake river in their kayaks with a group of friends when we meet at Celebration Park on the river. We see them off and head for their house in Nampa. This will be our chance to reconfigure our mobile living setup with access to…

A quick update: we’ve migrated to St. George, Utah where we’re visiting my Dad and Sarah. This place is a desert canyon paradise, but we still haven’t found a spot where we can camp long term and I can work effectively. Right now I’m taking advantage of Sarah’s new satellite connection in Snow Canyon State…

We drive from Lake Havasu City north to Las Vegas, thinking we might climb a little at Red Rock. We get a site at the dusty little campground that is much the same as it was in 2003. I ride into town to work a bit, and on the way back see rain storms in…

Ann’s friend Lana has invited us to stay at her RV-friendly house in Lake Havasu. Ann thought she might like to go there for her birthday.

Our first priority in choosing a destination has been to indulge in some warmth, but Ann noticed that in Tucson we could possibly indulge in an abundance of moderate climbing as well. I will be working more to keep us afloat, but of course I will find time for outdoor exploration too. The first thing…

We’ve been living in our camper again since our Christmas trip really, but we’re staying in Santa Fe while Ann transitions out of the job that has allowed me to focus on my freelance software work for a year now. This is a first step towards a rapid expansion our migrations thus far:

Once again our life takes an unexpected turn. Ann’s job with Peter is great, I like it here in Santa Fe, and Peter needed a bigger office. Voila, we have swank new home office digs in The Lofts, which are right next door to the campground we stayed in last summer. The camper and trailer…

This morning, with a measure of sadness and anxiety, I placed my home of the last six months in a storage lot for the winter. Our eight-foot Lance camper has been a better home than we dared hope. Yes, we’ve had to replace the water heater and contend with a number of irritating mechanical problems,…

Santa Fe feels a little dreamlike. I’m moving here, but I have everything I need with me already. Granted, everything in the cargo trailer is in a giant pile after my shelves collapsed during the bumpy ride. I don’t look forward to taking inventory of the damage. Even so, I feel like Santa Fe will…
