For the last few weeks I’ve been winging it with my workouts. I’m one of those people who need a plan so I finally sat down and wrote myself a three month periodized plan. I had one over the winter and it was great but then we started moving again and I starting working out “when […]

We had a good amount of unexpected snow last week which meant more time than usual on the mountain and less time for the computer. There is nothing quite like riding in powder. It feels like like floating. Exhilarating. Freeing. Soul soaring. We are powder seekers. And we fit together “like legos”. We finally made […]

A week and a half ago, I set a goal to land a jump by the end of the season. Saturday, I landed! It wasn’t a very high jump but I don’t care. For me, it takes a lot of courage to go off the small jumps because they look a lot steeper riding up […]

We made the cover of a local paper! I was a little nervous because the article could have taken a very different direction because sometimes people aren’t comfortable when others live unconventionally. As it turned out the article was better than we even imagined and really captures what it’s like to live full time in […]

I thought I was fit and then I snowboarded. I thought I was mentally stable and then I moved to the mountains in an RV for the winter. We got up to the mountains last Wednesday evening. Friday the boys and I went snowboarding. I only fell 10,000 times. The good news is I didn’t break […]

What does it mean to live? I mean really live? I’ve been asking myself this question this month as we have been preparing to head west for a spot 10,000 feet above sea level where we will spend the winter snowboarding and freezing our butts off in our RV.  It’s insane. For starters, it’s stretching […]

Hi guys! A quick post before we pack up move this morning. We spent a wonderful week in Rapid City, South Dakota. Some nomadic friends, who we got evacuated into a tunnel with during the 4th of July in Boston, met us here and we’ve been hanging out.  The weather has been nearly perfect which […]

Earlier this week Thing Two and I headed out to explore the local food options in Rapid City, South Dakota. Thing One stayed home with Brent because he wanted to practice his piano. Our first stop was the farmers market where we bought some of our fruits and vegetables for the week. I was happy […]

While I love exercising outside not having the option to exercise inside has been getting to me. As the weather changes my workout windows are getting smaller. It’s getting dark earlier and the mornings are getting cold. I’ve been trying hard not to complain because I realize getting to live in an RV and see […]

A few months ago we visited the 9/11 Memorial. Needless to say, it was sobering. As I walked along walls covered with names of those who died, I came across this lone rose. Sometimes losses are too big for words. Other times words remind how big the loss. Further around the memorial, I saw a […]
